Urban Meyer to Ohio St
 

ESPN reporting that its a done deal. 7yrs/40million. Its hard in NCAA football. You have to get your players in there. So how long do you give a guy? A lot of guys recently have not even had 3 years. Meyer is a great coach and does well everywhere he goes. If this report is true, I say they are playing for a National Championship possibly next year. If not the year after. The young QB that they have, Braxton Miller.... Urban wanted him at Florida and is insanely high on the kid. We shall see.
The report I read says the announcment will come Monday. Now if its all true, does he take over this year? Does he coach the Bowl game? How will it all work?

"I have not been offered any job nor is there a deal in place," Meyer said in a statement. "I plan on spending Thanksgiving with my family and will not comment on this any further."


On Wednesday, the New York Times reported that there are a handful of obstacles Meyer must clear before further engaging with Ohio State, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. That includes speaking with his entire family over Thanksgiving and further researching just how significant the NCAA sanctions against Ohio State may be.


People within the athletic department and close to the team told The Associated Press the job has not been offered to Meyer and nothing has been completed. They spoke on condition of anonymity because the coaching search is supposed to be confidential. Athletic director Gene Smith declined to comment Wednesday.

I may be a zebra, but I know football.


This is an awful thing to do if it happens...awful.

Fickell should remain and the carpetbagger should go down to 'Nana and learn more about how to scam everyone.

Haven't you ever watched EVPN?? If you had you would have learned...

Urban Meyer = Jesus

Nick Saban = his father.

Les Miles = John The Baptist with A-D-D

spit!!


ror!




But you leave Leslie alone !!

LesLesLes!!! The smartest thing Les Did was get rid of Gary Crowton.

Crowton=Judas

Typical religious guy. The more he talks the longer his nose gets.

The denial from Meyer is to avoide a hectic Holiday. He will be the Ohio St coach come early next week. He wants to spend the holiday weekend with his family, can you blame him?

Something here is not making a lot of sense.




Other than RockTard.

I wouldn't bet on this goof being the next hc at Ohio State.

I thought he wanted to spend the rest of his life with them. Isn't that why he left UF?

Whatever he said then does not really matter now IMO. If your Ohio St who is better? Everywhere this guy goes he wins and wins big.

think back to '07, and then let me know.


go talk to steve spurrier about life after florida as well.

Frankly, a guy who quit twice when things were going south---just a year or so ago,that's not the type at whom I would throw money.

In fact, considering it was essentially greed that got the world in the mess it's in...I wouldn't throw money at anyone.


Ohio State has the right guy now as HC, but they're too stupid to realize.

I quit them if they hire Bourban Meyer.

i'd imagine fla fans aren't too thrilled with ol' urban right now. but thank goodness he's got a clean bill of health now!! :rolleyes:


it'll be a walk in the park up there compared to the high stress life of the sec. who's better? lol rht, did you really put that? isn't the ncaa still working on their sanctions?

forde on meyer. love the line about tebow healing meyer!

lol what? I think you were the first one who told me I was wrong on this. This was a done deal since early last week, I was spot on. He wanted the Holidays for himself and his family. First thing Monday morning this is announced. No one is better then this guy, this is the perfect fit for Ohio St.

i didn't say you were wrong at all. i just thought i'd post that excerpt since it wasn't a done deal, and i've seen espn make up crap before. i don't trust them when they bring out 'sources say'.
i think les has left lsu twice now, according to espn and their 'sources'. yet, he's still there.


too bad that meyer had to lie tho, when he said there'd been no offer. guess he went to the saban school of how to answer questions.

I did not mean nowhere better then OSU. I meant not a better fit for Ohio St then Urban Meyer. Because he wins everywhere he goes, hence he should win at Ohio St. The Big 10 is nothing special and Ohio St has a big time QB who Meyer wanted at FL already in place. The way I phrased it I can see how it was confused for what you said though.

The announcement waited until after the weekend because he was attending his fathers funeral this weekend. Had nothing to do with the holidays.

Urban Meyer is a great coach and a very good person. the fucl<eye's are fortunate to get him.
