Ryan Day’s Buckeyes are hoping to snap a four-game losing streak in The Game. What changes has he made? How did last year’s loss shape him? How is he feeling heading this week? No one knows him better than his wife, and I talked to Nina.

I have a personal Black Friday offer because "Buckeye Brotherhood" is hard to get right now. If you become an annual paid subscriber to my Substack, I'll send you a free paperback copy from my personal stock. My supply is limited, so it’s first-come, first-serve. Happy Thanksgiving.

I will post a story tomorrow morning that I think Ohio State fans will be interested in. Ryan Day discussed a topic in my book that he has mostly avoided regarding Michigan. It's for paid subscribers to my Substack, which you can access here: bit.ly/43NPXoz

If you want a hardcover book, I will sell one to you, personalized. I'm thinking about offering them to paid annual subscribers of my Substack, but I'm not sure how many books I will have in my personal supply. As far as another hardcover printing, I don't know if that will happen.
Is there another printing coming? I ordered through Bookshop and it’s ok back order. I’ll settle for paper back would prefer the hardcover

I just talked to my publisher. Good news. A paperback version of "Buckeye Brotherhood" will be published on Nov. 18 and is available for pre-order on Amazon now. The publisher has sold out of the first printing of the hardcover version.

Julian Sayin is on pace to set the NCAA completion-percentage record. I decided to analyze his 42 non-completions. Even many of them were impressive. billrabinowitz.substack.com/p/wait-julia...
Wait, Julian Sayin hasn't completed every pass? What happened on those?
The OSU QB is on pace to set a completion-percentage record. I reviewed his 42 non-completions to see how many were his fault or even smart plays.

Thank you to my former employer for excerpting the Michigan aftermath chapter of "Buckeye Brotherhood." It's one of the pivotal chapters and goes deep into the Day family relationship. The basketball and measuring anecdotes cracked me up when they told me about them.

I planned to do this earlier in the week but have been sidetracked by book stuff. Instead of a full DVR review of the Wisconsin game - who wants that? - I will look at the subpar run plays by OSU's offense and try to dissect what went wrong. Follow along on my Substack.

I hoped people would buy and enjoy "Buckeye Brotherhood." But I never expected the book to become the No. 1 football book on Amazon or rank 517th among all books. It blows my mind, truthfully. Thanks to everyone who has bought the book. And please become a paying subscriber to my Substack.
