Day, who ended his sixth season as the Buckeyes head coach with his first national championship win, was a guest on "The Tonight Show" on Monday night. Day spoke with Jimmy Fallon about Ohio State's College Football Playoff run, with the CFP trophy on display in the background.
Though he didn't go to Ohio State, LeBron James has become one of the most famous fans of the Buckeyes. The Los Angeles Lakers star didn't go to college but he grew up in Ohio and adopted Ohio State as his college football team of choice.

On paper, it may have looked like Ohio State football single-handedly dominated its College Football Playoff competition, but reality tells a different story.
Ohio State coach Ryan Day spent the weekend celebrating the program's ninth national championship, a crowning achievement for a group that had operated like one of the best teams in the country all year and then played some of its best football in the biggest moments with a challenging run through the College Football Playoff.
In perhaps one of the funniest turns of events in recent college football history, a golf cart carrying Ohio State head coach Ryan Day, quarterback Will Howard, and linebacker Cody Simon crashed into a wall in the tunnel of Mercedes-Benz Stadium after the Buckeyes defeated the Notre Dame Irish in the College Football Playoff Championship.
