Scratch Urban Meyer?

  • I refuse to sit here and believe if offered urban say no thanks. Even with today's stuff. We are talking about a mans dream and his love for the buckeyes. These are opportunities that urban may NEVER get the rest of his life. Could he really live with himself if he passed? I know he would regret it. I'm sorry but 5 schollies over 3 years isn't shit And the only way maybe u can scratch him is if we get somethin like USC got.

    "at this time" OSU isn't look for a coach. I believe when they do urban maybe very interested in returning to coaching. Give it bout a month and he could be looking into it. Again I'm just not buying he turns down a once in a lifetime dream I know i wouldn't I'd go as far to say USC like sanctions still wouldnt turn him away if this is really a dream and he really cares this much about the OSU. Think about how much his family and mentors feel about OSU and him coaching here. U really think Earl bruce would say "yes urban pass on the OSU job." again just can't see it.

    If this is the actual quote, at this time, is open ended....however, what is being reported on 97.1 the ticket in Michigan is he said I am happy with my job at espn and will not be returning to coach next year. ThT is a little more closed off

    97.1 the ticket is the biggest joke around, it is full of low paid hacks. Most of what they get is stolen from websites or Yahoo. If 97.1 the ticket in Michigan ever gets a breaking story or info, it will be their first. They are a joke.
    Everytime someone references those low paid amatuers on 97.1 out of SE Michigan/Detroit, they should get a ban. They take info from Yahoo and sites like these, and their bias against OSU is pathetic. Yeah 97.1, what a great source of info. If you remember what they predicted In mid summer how we would burn, you would realize what a bunch of low paid amatuer fools they are.

  • PR in general is mostly bullshit.

    I get most of ESPN's releases and I don't really put any validity into this whatsoever.

    You guys are all so pathetic. Luke Fickell will be the coach in columbus next year. Why is that so dificult to grasp. Meyer is a pipe dream... He is not ready to come back! He keeps saying that, and people on this board think he is lying? Fickell in 2012 WILL happen.

    Fickell is not that likely, most on the BOT's and other factions know he was part of this coaching staff, he seen these cars, condos, cars and other items down there during this time, Tressel fell on the sword.
    I will not go into my source, other when he told me Fickell was slim to none in October, he reports to Gene Smith's boss, so I will take his word for it.
    You think Meyer is the only list? He might be king of the hill 1AA, but there are other names waiting on that list as well, and they are have better resumes than Fickell.

    What else is he going to say to shut down rumors of him and the PSU job? My more serious concern is that that 5 scholarship losses over next 3 years may cause him concern. May not seem like a lot to lose, but makes decisions on who to offer much more discerning.

    Over signing, as the SEC knows, is the answer to all of your FB problems...

    You are about as immature and childish as I have ever seen on these boards.. Take your Post over to the Fickelite board because the only way he stays is if Osu gets hammered with sanctions and no qualified coach wants the Job.. Then thy will just go cheap and pay him 1.5 mil to stay around until we are able to crawl out of the ditch. I really really hope this does not happen

    Who is on that list, that has reasonable chance of taking the job? I want Urban here, but if he doesn't come, I have not heard a name of a person (who will actually take the job) that I would take over Fickell.

    I'll take Pelini any day over fickell.. He has head coaching experience he took over when Nebraska was at a low and within 2 years made them competitive with Texas and Oklaholma. He has a NC ring as a DC. He has shown a lot of growth on his offensive philosophy they have a pretty decent offense with one of the worst quarterbacks I've ever seem.. He has gotten recruiting classes in the top 15 every yr since he has been there and he does not have a strong in state talent base. He is not my choice but I'm my opinion has a lot more to offer than Fickell. I will also make a prediction he will kick penn states butt tomorrow

  • Hey... the guys that said Luke were going to be coaching here this year weren't entirely wrong. It was a good move to mend some buckeye fences for Meyer to keep Fickell as a DC. I'm one of the guys that wasn't thrilled about Meyer coming on board because I didn't like some of the things that went down in Florida. So far he seems to have done everything right. So, I'm behind him now. I can't wait until the first game to see how the team is looking.
