Michigan fans: Get the PERFECT holiday gag gift for the Ohio State fan in your life
'The Complete History of Ryan Day's Success Against Michigan: Volume I (2021-2024)' is available now. Grab a copy and get it in hand before Christmas.
If you’ve been a subscriber here for a while, you know I’m very anti-hyperbole. So if I’m going to call something the PERFECT holiday gag gift in the headline of a post, I mean it. And I very much mean it with this post.
Because The Complete History of Ryan Day's Success Against Michigan: Volume I (2021-2024) truly is a piece of art. And it’s available for purchase now ($14.95 via Amazon — with shipping that gets it in your hands before Christmas).
I wish I could take credit for this masterpiece, but I can’t. The book comes from the evil genius that is Mike Vernon, who runs his own school-specific newsletter over at KU Hearings. He put together a version of this concept centered around Kansas State’s Championship History — which, if you’re unfamiliar with the Wildcat trophy case, is as storied as Ryan Day’s track record of post-COVID success against Michigan. The reception for that has been so great that he’s dipping his toes in the Michigan-OSU waters.
Mike was kind enough to share this Author’s Note to share what you can expect by purchasing The Complete History of Ryan Day's Success Against Michigan: Volume I (2021-2024).
