As you can see in the clip above, the teams are still on the field and the Buckeyes players are in the process of exiting.
The clip shows Minter, who's been the defensive coordinator since 2022, waving toward the Buckeyes players before being greeted by two Michigan players.
Well, this clip certainly didn't sit well with a lot of users on X. some posts resurfaced from earlier this year involving Minter and Connor Stalions, who's at the center of the Michigan sign-scouting scandal.

Ohio state beat the piss out of Michigan 16 win in 18 years. Showed respect for Michigan and the rivalry. Michigan wins a few games and it's that Ohio state is soft and their coaches are born on third base . Stay classy Michigan .

Is he waving bye to the fans since he’ll be the next to be fired in the scandal?

I thought he was waving at his college coaching career, which has about 4-5 months left before the show cause kicks in.
