Shelley Meyer: 'Would be ecstatic' if Urban didn't coach again
In the wake of Ohio State's victory in the Rose Bowl, Buckeyes coach Urban Meyer reaffirmed his belief that he has coached his last football game.
"I know this is relatively young, but I started young -- 17 years as a head coach, 33 years doing this," Meyer, 54, said. "And just very fortunate, and I do believe I'm done."
That was music to the ears of his wife, Shelley, who also expressed her desire for him to leave the coaching profession after the Buckeyes' 28-23 win against Washington.
"I would be ecstatic if he didn't [coach again]," Shelley Meyer said. "I'm done. I want him to be done. He's too intense."
Urban Meyer, who will be succeeded by offensive coordinator Ryan Day, will become an assistant athletic director at Ohio State and also will co-teach a course titled "Leadership and Character" in Ohio State's Fisher College of Business this spring.
Shelley Meyer said that she thought Urban's new role as an assistant AD will be a good fit because it will keep him busy and around the program's players. Although she called the change "bittersweet," she also said she welcomed her husband taking on a job that doesn't come with the stress of being a head football coach.
"It's an end to something that we've been doing for a long, long, long time," she said. "I'm sad, but I'm really happy for him, because this is what needed to happen right now.
"He's been fun again. He's back to the Urban I knew when he wasn't so stressed out and anxious and having headaches."

This is the cleanest coaching transition in the storied history of the program. I don't know how to react. I feel like I'm supposed to be angry and bitter but I'm not angry and bitter.

Why would you be angry or bitter?
A guy who has demonstrated excellence as a coach is getting ready to demonstrate that same level of excellence in program building and succession planning.
I'm Jessica Alba leaked sex tape level excited.

Because my default position for all coaching transitions at Ohio State is to be angry. Urban is the first coach to walk out on his own terms in 70 years.

Urban leaves averaging a yearly record of 12.3 - 1.3 over 7 years
To improve on that, Day has to essentially average a record of 13-0. Not likely. But, if Day averages 12-1 or even 11-2 I'll be happier than Jax at a Jessica Alba cloning party.
In any case, Thanks Corch! A fantastic run... never tasting defeat against that team up north... so many great memories.
