Oh my god. His subtle gut punches to Jim Harbaugh during interviews and segments are incredible.
Seriously; hit 1:42. “Very gratefully haven’t been in that situation.”
When talking about losing rivalry games and relations becoming tense in the offseason between the coach and boosters.
Fucking.
Ruthless. And classy.
Harbaugh can talk controversy all he wants, but Meyer’s going to continue to have the last laugh no matter what until Jim somehow gets his shit together and accomplishes something besides a trip to Europe.

Feel like the Jerry Jones-hate is overstated.
#1- If I were a free agent the Cowboys is the first place I'd tell my agent to call. Loaded roster. Owner that takes care of his players. A pro team where the alumni fraternity has a college vibe.
#2- Jason Garrett's got 9 years and hasn't won shit. Urban could absolutely do that for 6 or 7. I don't think he would, or if he did he'd regret it. 11-5 isn't good enough for Urban. It'd destroy him.

Of course, Jerry Jones is the one who virtually fired Tom Landry on the 10:00 news in favor of Jimmy Johnson, who he treated like dirt, same with Barry Switzer. Don't ever think Urban doesn't know that.

Just received a phone alert saying FSU will be pursuing Urban Meyer. Article doesn't look all that credible to me though, and why wouldn't a school at least see if there is interest.

Don’t think it is especially newsworthy or surprising that any struggling program will pursue Meyer. Many will at least give it a go, they’d be fools not to at least make a try at it.

With help from Urban Meyer, Fox's Big Noon Kickoff aims high

Rob Stone’s phone rang at 6 a.m. Monday.
The caller I.D. read: Urban Meyer.
They talked three more times before 1 p.m. And that was prior to their weekly conference call.
“Coach and I are in contact throughout the week bouncing ideas, and how can we fine-tune the show, and how can we continue to win,” said Stone, the host of Big Noon Kickoff on Fox. “He’s really win-oriented, and I think we all are. It’s been hard for him to find a win in this environment. It’s easy to say it on Saturdays, ‘We won.’ But what is a win on Saturdays?
“We always go back to that question: Did we win? And then, let’s get ready for our opponent next week. Where are their soft spots and where are our strengths? He has brought that to the front of our TV brains. It’s been a really fresh perspective that’s been thrust upon us.”
On Saturday, Fox is bringing its nascent pregame show to Ohio Stadium, a homecoming for Meyer, but also a showcase for the hour-long program that is perhaps the biggest breakout star of the college football season.
Big Noon Kickoff, a mixture of authenticity, astute analysis, and humor, didn’t take shape until March when Meyer, one of the offseason’s most coveted free agents, along with Justin Fields and Jalen Hurts, exited the transfer portal and signed with Fox. The network collected one of the best coaches of the past two decades and three of the most recognizable players from the same era — Matt Leinart, Reggie Bush, and Brady Quinn — offering a fresh alternative to ESPN’s College GameDay, an eclectic show that’s won eight Sports Emmys and is considered the gold standard of pregame studio productions.
What Big Noon Kickoff is attempting to be is a successful version of the USFL, or the XFL, or the UFL, or the AAF. GameDay has been an untouchable titan, standing atop the sport’s TV landscape for nearly three decades.
“We all realize to do what we’re attempting to do there’s going to be a lot of scrutiny,” Quinn said. “All of us start preparing for the next week when the previous Saturday ends. The crowd we cater to is more football-driven. Fans now are more educated than ever. They have a platform to voice their criticisms and concerns with Twitter and other social media platforms. For that reason, I think we've tried to be more current and relevant with our content.”
College GameDay, a three-hour extravaganza, is outdrawing Big Noon Kickoff 2-to-1, but Fox is growing its audience despite GameDay’s ratings increasing slightly compared to 2018. The network also has accomplished its goal of owning the noon window, putting its best games in the afternoon instead of at night while reaping the rewards. Fox routinely has the highest-rated noon game and Oklahoma-Texas is the third most-watched game of the season.
“It’s surpassed even our most optimistic expectations,” Stone said. “I think there was screaming for an alternative source of college football news. I think we've assembled a really unique blend of current, name-brand talent who’s done it on the field and the sideline. When Urban speaks, it’s a 100 percent with a level of authority, and we all just kind of stop and listen and soak in the knowledge.”

Researching the Magic!
I enjoyed this line way more than I should have (since I work for the owners of the opponent) and laughed out loud. He will choke you over a game of checkers and damnit, that's more entertaining in this instance than it should be.
