Ohio State fires special teams coordinator Robby Discher after multiple issues on special teams. ESPN reports the dismissal follows back-to-back blowout losses that included costly special teams errors and penalties, citing sources.
Other coverage links the decision to a recent game in which Oregon used a fake punt to dominate the Buckeyes. The Athletic says Discher is out two days after Oregon’s performance, framing the move as a response to specific special-teams impact. The Winnipeg Free Press also reports the midseason firing in a headline focused on Discher’s departure.
Taken together, the outlets agree on who was fired and the broad timing and rationale: Ohio State makes a midseason change to its special teams coaching staff after notable special-teams problems and a damaging opponent sequence.
