By bringing in Bill O’Brien, Ohio State seems to be signaling that the 2024 season is a make-or-break opportunity for securing a championship.
Throughout the past few decades, Ohio State has consistently posed a serious threat for the national title, standing out as the sole member of the elite group in the sport that has consistently avoided unexpected outcomes or any indication of a downturn. This resilience is a defining characteristic of the program, evident across various eras in the history books. OSU has consistently entered each football season with the potential to contend for a trophy, thanks to the talent in Columbus and the strategic guidance of the head coach.
This characteristic was once again evident on Thursday night when a source confirmed to FOX Sports that Bill O’Brien, the recent offensive coordinator for the New England Patriots, is set to join Ohio State as the new offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.
