You\u2019ve gotta recruit your position. You\u2019re the head coach of your position. You\u2019ve gotta make sure that room is strong year in and year out. We have a certain amount of depth at each position and then it\u2019s your job to make sure that you have the best room in the country.\u201d\nDevelopment: \u201cHow they perform on the field. What type of production are you getting out of your unit? A big part of that is the development. If you recruit really well and then you\u2019re developing your players are usually going to get production.\u201d\nScheme: \u201cWhat do you bring schematically to the field? Are you putting your guys in a situation to be successful?\u201d\nDay is heading into a pivotal offseason in terms of how his staff is structured following a third-straight loss to Michigan. There will \u2014 or at least shout be \u2014difficult conversations had.
