Buckeyes 'tough love,' 'fight' mantras on full display for Tegra Tshabola
COLUMBUS — Ohio State coach Ryan Day was at the podium Tuesday afternoon when he was asked about starting right guard Tegra Tshabola. Day was speaking directly under a massive sign that reads 'TOUGH LOVE.' Off to the side on the wall, another sign reads 'FIGHT.' The first-year starter at his position, Tshabola delivered the 'fight' mantra with his performance at Penn State on Saturday; he was part of an offensive line that dominated for large parts of the win and even helped the Buckeyes run out the final five minutes and 13 seconds of clock with 10 straight rushing attempts. Day, though, was at the podium to deliver the other adage posted: tough love.
