👋 Hey, Buckeye Nation!
Happy New Year!!
Thousands of readers open this newsletter every day and share their love for the Bucks. But fans like you represent the “purists” who breathe football and represent the top 3% who follow the game closely.
Today's edition is about you and that diehard OSU fan within you that always felt elated and excited every time Coach Day and his men stepped inside the The Shoe or proved their mettle on the road.
Let's dive in!
When it comes to our community, three names drew the most attention.
These individuals are more than just football figures. There are traits that every Bucks fan can relate to when we look deep into their personalities. Let us know if you feel the same…..
Personality Type - The Sharpshooter!
If Ryan Day were a composer, Julian Sayin would be the star pianist. The Bucks' centerpiece is effortlessly deft, and deadly accurate, if his O-line gave him any time.
He’s grounded but loves to put on a show. The QB is on the go, mapping his next move and intimidating his opponents on the way, before he’s done with the current one. He’s learning as he goes, watching his foes while looking for opportunities to strike. And before you know it, he’s made a play that puts the rival team’s offense under pressure.
If you are someone who has natural talent at what they do, and have an infinite ceiling above them, we feel these are the traits that define you!
Personality Type - The Architect
The calmest one before the storm.
If you’re anything like the head coach, you’re cool, unbothered, and in control. Ryan Day is the embodiment of steady confidence, no matter the circumstances. While the first impression gives off a serious, no-nonsense taskmaster, he catches you off guard with his wit and dry humor.
He’s someone the team counts on. Dependable, composed, and just the right amount of fun. And that’s before he beats your team yet again, all while keeping a straight face. That’s Ryan Day for you.
Personality Type - The Messenger
A steady presence in all the ways that matter, Kirk Herbstreit embodies quiet leadership. He knows his role within college football and does it at a level few can reach. Always in the spotlight, he speaks with clarity and purpose.
While he is explicit in what he expects, he’s always around to back those around him. The kind of foresight it takes to be the best color commentator in the sport.
You might have different perspectives in life; we are not asking you to box yourself into one of these. However,
Who do you think suits your personality the best?
