Arthur Smith's Big Move to Ohio State

Arthur Smith is making a big change. He's leaving the NFL to become Ohio State's new offensive coordinator. This is a fresh start for him after three seasons with the Atlanta Falcons. His time there wasn't great. The Falcons only won seven games each season. Before that, he spent most of his career with the Tennessee Titans. Smith had other options. The Arizona Cardinals and Tennessee Titans wanted him as their head coach. There was also an offensive coordinator job in the NFL. But he chose Ohio State instead. This means he'll be working under head coach Ryan Day. It's a new chapter for Smith, who started his coaching career in college.He's not new to college football. Smith began as a graduate assistant at North Carolina. Then he moved to Ole Miss in 2010. Now, he's back in the college scene. Ohio State's defensive coordinator, Matt Patricia, is also a former NFL head coach. This makes the Buckeyes' coaching staff quite experienced. Smith is 42 years old. He's got a lot of experience. But his NFL record isn't impressive. Maybe college football is where he can shine. Ohio State is a big program. It's a chance for him to make a name for himself again. Fans will be watching to see if he can turn things around.
