Illinois special teams coordinator Robby Discher is reportedly heading to Columbus.
CBS Sports reported Saturday that Discher will take over the same position for Ryan Day’s staff at Ohio State.
Discher’s career has taken him to Tulane, Georgia and Louisiana before Illinois, where he arrived in 2023.

Over the last two seasons, Illinois’ special teams unit ranked No. 16 and No. 30 in the nation by ESPN’s efficiency metric.
No word on who will take over on Bret Bielema’s staff, but it appears it’s the only coordinator spot he will have to fill this offseason, as Aaron Henry and Barry Lunney Jr. have stayed put so far.
