FOLLOWING: The manager of ohio say to the Ohio State football club that they might not have to be worry about sign…
The Ohio State football program had to deal with Michigan stealing its signs in multiple matchups. We know what Connor Stalions did for TTUN and how bad it was.
That wasn’t the only reason why the Buckeyes have lost to them three times in a row though. Day knows that and has made some staff changes to remedy that.
One thing Day and his staff might not have to worry about anymore are sign-stealers. There has been talk about putting communicators into the helmets of offensive and defensive play-callers for a while now. The NFL does it, so it makes sense to do it for college too. That might be happening sooner than fans think.
The powers that be are voting on three new rule changes. According to Ro
Yahoo Sports, those rule changes are helmet communication, the use of tablets on the sidelines, and a two-minute warning. Two of those rule changes make a lot of sense, while the other is just stupid and shouldn’t be made a rule.
It makes sense to allow teams to use tablets on the sidelines to help study film. The NFL does that and it’s perfectly acceptable. The same thing goes for coach-to-player helmet communication. It makes all the sense in the world for them to be able to call plays in from the sidelines. If they can’t hear them on the road, teams can still signal the plays in.
