Worked out well with the last group of unsavory fellers they brought in. For me Urban Meyer is the worst possible hire. I hate the arrogant group of OSU fans and this will only make them worse, and he is a great coach.

Multiple sources confirmed today that Meyer has reiterated his intention to take the job during recent phone calls to multiple, prominent former Ohio State football players.

Sources said Meyer contacted the ex-Buckeyes to ask for guidance on possible assistant coach hires and - just as important - their public support when Meyer’s hire is announced next week by Ohio State.

Sources close to Ohio State said today that an announcement on Meyer’s hire by the school will come next Monday or Tuesday though nothing has been signed between the two parties at this time.

[size=6][b]Meyer, Ohio St. reportedly agree to deal[/b][/size]


Former University of Florida coach Urban Meyer has agreed in principle to a seven-year, $40 million deal to become the new coach of Ohio State, according to a WKMG-TV report Tuesday night, which cited sources.

The report said Meyer, 47, would be introduced in the coming days.

Meyer denied the deal in a statement Wednesday morning.

"I have not been offered any job nor is there a deal in place. I plan on spending Thanksgiving with my family and will not comment on this any further," he told ESPN, where he currently works as a college football analyst.

The sources said Meyer would bring a number of Florida's current assistant coaches with him, including Gators linebackers coach D.J. Durkin, who would become defensive coordinator.

Florida's strength coach Mickey Marotti was also set to join Ohio State as director of football operations.

Ohio State interim coach Luke Fickell would remain with the team as assistant head coach, the report said.

Meyer stepped down as Florida's head coach in 2010 citing health concerns, but told the Gainesville Sun on Monday that he felt strong enough mentally and physically to make a return to coaching.

[b] Urban once again denies deal in place to coach Buckeyes[/b]

Posted by John Taylor on November 23, 2011, 9:53 AM EST


Another day, another [b]Urban Meyer[/b] denial. And, honestly, we’d expect nothing less.

For the umpteenth time in the past week or so, a media outlet has reported that the former Florida coach has [url="http://collegefootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/11/19/espn-com-dives-headfirst-into-urban-to-osu-rumor-mill/"]agreed to become Ohio State’s next head coach[/url]. This time it’s Orlando television station WKMG doing the honors, reporting that Meyer has agreed to [url="http://www.clickorlando.com/sports/Source-Meyer-agrees-to-OSU-job/-/1636890/4810492/-/5bkcl4/-/index.html"]a seven-year, $40 million contract[/url] — previous reports had the number pegged at $35 million over the same number of years, so Meyer has apparently earned a raise before ever coaching a game in Columbus — and will be introduced as [b]Jim Tressel[/b]‘s permanent replacement in the coming days.

The report goes on to state that Meyer “will bring several current UF assistant coaches with him to Columbus, including [b]D.J. Durkin[/b], the Gators’ linebackers coach, who will be the OSU defensive coordinator”. Previous reports had suggested that interim head coach [b]Luke Fickell[/b] would stay on as Meyer’s coordinator; the TV station says that Fickell will stay on Meyer’s staff as an assistant. Additionally, UF strength coach [b]Mickey Marotti[/b] is expected to become OSU’s Director of Football Operations, the station reported.

One source with knowledge of the situation told CFT earlier this week that while it’s not a signed, sealed and delivered deal — still — it will be in short order and that an official announcement will come next week. Meyer, as he’s done on at least a couple of occasions over the past couple of weeks, has denied reports that he has landed the job, but did so in an open-ended statement that’s very much open to interpretation.

“[url="http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/7272658/urban-meyer-denies-report-new-ohio-state-buckeyes-coach?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter"]I have not been offered any job nor is there a deal in place[/url]. I plan on spending Thanksgiving with my family and will not comment on this any further,” Meyer said in his latest statement.
([i]Translation: let my family and I enjoy the holiday before I jump headfirst back into the coaching game. Thanks in advance. Urbz[/i])

Meyer can [url="http://collegefootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/11/19/meyer-to-buckeyes-rumors-continue-to-fly/"]deny the reports and speculation[/url] all he wants, but one thing has become crystal clear: barring an unexpected development, the Ohio-born coach will become the next head coach of the Ohio State Buckeyes at some point in the not-too-distant future, likely, [url="http://collegefootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/11/21/urban-on-osu-rumors-no-interview-no-offer/"]as we’ve noted previously[/url], before the calendar flips from November to December.

Urban to OSU is done...

[b]I still have it on good authority that he's bringing John Chavis from LSU as his defensive coordinator. [/b] Strictly rumor but from a pretty good source. I don't know Meyer's timetable but if LSU is playing in the NC game may affect it. Coordinators leave all the time prior to a bowl game (even NC games) and some even come back just to call the game... just food for thought. Assume Meyer wants his staff filled out well ahead of NSD so he can build a strong class.

The spread would work just fine in the Big Ten... the reason Michigan has / had problems is that RichRod apparently forgot to recruit / build a defense. His offenses could put up 28+ a game easy but his defenses couldn't stop shit.

And, Urban Meyer will recruit some unsavory people... just something that OSU fans will have to get used to as a "cost of winning" type of thing.

watching the LSU defense today, and over the last few years, I think that would be almost as big of a win as getting Urban.

Urban Meyer to Ohio St has been a done deal for almost a whole month now. Anyone who denies that is obviously A). not from Columbus, or B). not informed at all. Most people who do not believe this do not realize the power that Les Wexner has. He is making god damn sure that this is going to happen. They are most likely introducing him as the coach to buckeye fans when Ohio st plays Duke in basketball and will announce it sometime before then.
