Urban Meyer to OSU

Not fast enough to not get pasted on National Championship game.

And DeacInBama hit the nail on the head. I just dont see Urban pulling enough guys to let OSU sport a DLine like LSU and Bama have in the near future. Urban or no. Why go to the midwest when you have better programs in your backyard you can play for?

They lost a couple of games a few years ago. BFD. They also won one nine years ago against a team from Florida. There's no reason to act like Ohio State is irrelevant.
 
There's been a whole lot of stupid slathered on this thread in the last page or so.

Good thing you're here to slather on a helping of really fucking stupid to go with a healthy dose of condescending arrogance.
 
Right, but the point remains, at OSU he is going to be expected to win the big one. Every coach at OSU is expected to win the big one, and the expectations on him will be even higher. I just think it will be harder to win it all at a big 10 school given what the SEC has done in the last 10 years.

OSU has made it to the Champ game twice coming out of a weak big 10 with no championship game, only to have an SEC team completely wipe the floor with them.

OSU beat one of the best college football teams of all time to win the '02 title. There was just as much NFL talent (if not more) than on any of the SEC champ teams.

Urban Meyer has agreed to take Ohio State job. Staff likely to include Fickell, current LSU assistant

The deal between Meyer and Ohio State was consumated in principle earlier this week in Columbus but not signed. It includes a multi-year contract that will make Meyer once again one of college football’s highest paid coaches.
In additon to Meyer’s generous compensation package, sources said a major factor in the coach’s decision to agree to take the position was the school promising him the budget to assemble what is expected to become the highest-paid assistant coaching staff in college football history.
Of that staff, sources indicate Meyer’s intial plan is to retain current Ohio State head football coach Luke Fickell and current Buckeye wide receivers coach Stan Drayton.
Meyer also aims to add Chris Spielman, Kirk Herbstreit, current North Carolina State linebackers coach Jon Tenuta and current LSU offensive line coach Greg Studwara to his Ohio State staff.
 
Is he the resident color commentator or is he going to be the QB coach. It'll be weird watching College Football Live without him.
 
Maybe I'm the only one but there a STRONG Big Ten stigma in terms of no athleticism. I just can't even comprehend a team there winning a title. Even Ohio State's last one was such bullshit.

Pointing out stupidity is no indication of same.

I suppose thinking I can do something about it might be.

The two pages of comments on Ohio State were really the most obvious demonstration to date that most people on this board really do not know shit about college football.

Sorry to be the one to have to point that out...no, not really.

You really know nothing of college football and especially Ohio State football.
 
i'm not a big meyer fan. would prefer that OSU wait for penalties to be announced, then give the NCAA a giant middle finger and rehire Jim Tressel. Free tattoos don't look so bad compared to an ass-raping scandal now, do they?

On a side note, the Buckeyes have more BCS appearances and wins than any other school so I'd say their athleticism and speed (also looking at NFL rosters) stack up just fine.

Thank god you're here then. Really, what would we do without you to show us how this big scary world works?

RT @MsPotts_ESPN: Urban Meyer on rumors of OSU job: "I've not been offered any job and certainly have not accepted any job"
 
So he basically doesn't deny that he's met with OSU, discussed the position, and/or preliminarily agreed in principle to take the job once there is an opening.
 
speilman and meyer seen to be unusually "chumy" while announcing this game.
