  • Ryan Day hired armed security to protect his family following death threats after Michigan loss

    Ryan Day hired armed security to protect his family following death threats after Michigan loss

    In the days following Ryan Day walking off the field in Columbus following Ohio State’s loss to Michigan to end the regular season, his family’s safety was the main priority after they received death threats from a lunatic fringe of Buckeye fans. 

    There was obviously a monster fallout in Columbus after the loss, with fans calling for Ryan Day to be fired after Ohio State lost its fourth straight game to the Wolverines. But what some folks have not heard is how everything spiraled out of control from a safety standpoint for Ryan Day and his family. 

    Speaking with the Columbus Dispatch, Nina Day, the wife of Ryan Day, spoke about the terrible events that came in the aftermath of the Michigan loss. The situation behind the scenes for the family had turned, in a dangerous manner.

    Head coach Ryan Day of the Ohio State Buckeyes celebrates with wife, Christina, and daughter after defeating the Oregon Ducks 41-21 in the Rose Bowl Game Presented by Prudential at Rose Bowl Stadium on January 01, 2025 in Pasadena, California. 

    “The time between the Michigan game and the Tennessee game was as low and dark as you could possibly imagine. Extremely negative. Unprecedented hate,” Nina Day explained. 

    When Ryan Day was eight years old, his father died by suicide. So, when fans somehow got hold of Nina Day’s cell phone number in the days following the Michigan loss, unfathomable messages started to pour in at a constant rate, before Nina decided it was best to just disconnect her phone. 

    “They told me multiple times to have Ryan follow in his father’s footsteps and kill himself,” Nina noted to the Dispatch.

    On the outside, Ryan Day continued to push forward, holding his weekly press conference, while waiting to see who his team would play in the first round of the college football playoff. But inside the family, things were starting to get out of control when it came to their safety. 

    According to Nina Day, their 16-year-old son, RJ, started to receive death threats on social media, while the family’s address was also posted, leading to Ryan Day hiring armed security guards to protect his family at their house. There was also a thought from Nina that she should take her kids and leave Columbus during this time, not knowing what the next month could bring. 

    “I think he, at times, second-guessed his decision to get into this and be in the spotlight that we’re in. He felt responsible and just felt bad that he had put us in this position. He promised us he’d get us out of it,” Nina Day mentioned about the conversations with her husband. 

    Ryan Day ‘Fought Like Hell’ For His Family During Ohio State’s CFP Run

    There are fans across all sports that take things way too seriously, and this is another instance of something that could not be controlled. There was no reason that the Day family needed to fear for their lives over a football game, I don’t care how much you’re paid, or what your job title is. 

    This is obviously the ugly part of sports, and it’s not as if this is the first time we’ve heard of coaches having to deal with these types of situations, and it won’t be the last.

    “He fought like hell and got us out of a very dark place that we were in five weeks ago because of his resilience, because I don’t think anybody really thought this was going to end the way it did,” Nina Day mentioned. “Everybody thought the season ended in November. 

    “All he kept telling me was ‘I want to bring you guys peace. I just want to bring you guys peace.’ And he knew that for us to feel any type of peace, he had to win it all.”

    All of this over a football game. A family fearing for their lives, needing armed security to guard their house, just to get a peaceful night of sleep and feel safe.

    While Nina Day mentioned that you cannot label an entire fan base as the ‘lunatic fringe’, there are certainly a number of people who should be held accountable for their actions towards the Day family. 

    As I watched Ryan Day celebrate with his family on the field Monday night, hugging each member of the family, there was certainly more to the story than just a head coach who was dealing with outside noise.
