Yeah, well we’ll see how Meyer responds the first few times Michigan beats him down.
I think Meyer couldn’t handle the fact that Bama had surpassed Florida, and that’s why he was looking to get out of UF, once Tebow was gone.
Urban Meyer is a Buckeye and has always wanted the Ohio State job. My son-in-law played for him at Bowling Green - his first head coaching job. He took a team that was lousy, ran off 20 scholarship players and made them a top 25 team. He then went and did the same thing at Utah.
I was at one of his first spring practices at Florida. The Gators were soft as a pillow and he molded them into a great team and won two national championships with them. I have been a football coach for a long time so I know softness when I see it.
One last thing - Here is a list of Meyer’s coaches from that Bowling Green team: Tim Beckman - Illinois new head coach; Dan Mullen - hc at Miss St. and front runner for Penn State job; Greg Studrawa - offensive co-ord. at LSU; DJ Durkin - LB coach at Florida; Mick McCall - OC at Northwestern; Billy Gonzales - WR coach at LSU; Zack Azzani - OC at Western Kentucky; Matt Campbell - Toledo’s new head coach. And these are only the ones that I remember off the top of my head.
Unless Michigan wins the recruiting war for Ohio high school players (which I doubt is going to happen - I don’t any beat downs coming in the near future. Meyer’s dad who just died was a huge OSU fan and Woody Hayes fan. They have a picture of Woody hanging in their house. The Buckeyes will play for the national championship before Braxton Miller graduates. What Urban Meyer has accomplished as a head coach is not done by accident or because Ron Zook is a great recruiter.
