Maybe we just can’t see the rest. Could say “Tough Times Ahead”
I was thinking the full statement read: "Tough Titties 24-30"
The first thing that came to my mind that would follow the word "tough" was something that really shouldn't be said in mixed company, at least not if you want to be polite. Which is why it's so perfect for Ohio State.
The word you don’t want to mention is plastered inside of the coolers.
"Tough toenails!"

username is close to checking out, but two bases off.
…to swallow three losses in a row.
deleted, somebody beat me to it.
I’m pretty sure the part we can’t see is the first word which is obviously “Hangin’” for Hangin’ Tough the well known motivational ode penned by the world renowned band NKOTB.
Everone knows Ryan Day was an alternate founding member back in the “Day”.

It's to establish a culture, a mindset.
Remember in Summer of 2021 when Michigan's weight room posted signs like "What have you done to beat Ohio State today?" ...and it was mocked on this very board. But the point was to establish a culture, a mindset. Do you think it worked?

As if it's that easy

The point you are missing is that they are desperately trying to be Michigan. Which they probably need to be, after the last 3 years of getting their ass kicked, hard.

They may want to contact one of their supporters and change it to “The Jaxes” - since the letter “M” has supposedly bern stricken for a while.

I suppose you're correct in a way. But they can't establish that mindset with a coach and staff who doesn't fit into that mentality. Your DC - who you guys love for some odd reason - has only forced one punt in the second half of both Michigan games he's coached in. Combined.
Day is incredibly soft. He's got Matt Cassano shielding him from the Columbus peer pressure and backlash. His All Big 10 QB wasn't Stroud-level, so Day gets happy feet and he bolts. Your new QB would do well just to match McCord's numbers from last year.
Your WR coach can't get a functional blocking WR coached up, and your OLine can't free up anyone but Trayanum (who bolted).
Keep, uh... "establishing" whatever that is supposed to be, I guess.

$24M in payments is what you paid to establish a mindset this yr. congrats

Tough luck?
Anyways, Day has the best team that money can buy, because his culture was all gimmicks.

He is trying to follow what surprisingly has become a successful strategy, and now much more popular as established over the last 7 years, that if you repeat something over and over again it eventually becomes true.
RIP to a close friend of my family, Preston "Prez" Hubbard, we miss you buddy.
They did get the B1G's true colors correct.
Every time Ryan Day and "tough" are brought up--and particularly when Day talks about being tough, I think of Fredo talking about being smart.
Brilliant performance, the pain and frustration come through. He (John Cazale) is gone way too soon—would have had a fantastic career.
He was in 5 movies between 1972 and his death. All were nominated for Best Picture and two won
Three won: Both Godfather films and The Deer Hunter.
Well........he sure as hell wasnt smart enough to stay out of that fishing boat.
If it wasn’t there it would’ve been somewhere else. Michael wasn’t fucking around.
The kid can't go fishing. I'm sure you won't mind fishing with the hit man.
This is the scene in Game of Thrones I always think about whenever Ryan Day talks about how they are tough.
That King was a super villian.
“Though mayhaps this was a blessing. Had he lived he would have grown up to be a Frey"….totally unrelated but that was the toughest line in ASOIAF.
Maybe it's not a sign signaling to people watching him but a reminder TO him as he approaches the lectern.
Nothing says tough like a little pre-game dance party that's for sure.
Unhinged penguin.
It needs that Benny Hill theme music....lol
Wish I had more +1's to give!!!!
"Yakety Sax," Boots Randolph.
Not to be confused with "Yakety Yak" featuring King Curtis.
Surprised the "Just for Men" didn't rub off on those white unis.

i only have but 1 mgo point to give!!

Very catchy tune
On meth
with a whistle
Brian Kelly wants some of that action.
He looks like an intoxicated penguin!! 😂
Too bad we're not at home for the Game this year. Would love to hear the band play Yakety Sax on repeat throughout the game.
