Urban F. Meyer (Former OSU, CFB and NFL coach)

Geezus! I had to stop reading this crap. Too many negative Nancys. This is THE Ohio State Buckeyes and they will be fine. There might be a hiccup or UFM may coach until I am 50 (9 years). Who knows. Beat Northwestern!

@TS10HTW Thank you!

This thread is not delivering. Either an obligatory UPS girl post or split this shit off.

I think that his response yesterday in the press conference said (a) he intends to be coaching at Ohio State next year and (b) possibly longer, but this is not the time to be focusing on anything but the B1G Conference title game.
I hope you are right. I haven't seen the response. My buddy was certain when Shelly was crying so hard after THE GAME that she was doing so because she knew this was his last time handing Harbra his ass and he was done. I took it as she was crying hard because she is still pissed that OSU threw her husband under the bus and he has suffered way more than he ever should have this year from the bs drive by media.

I hadn't seen the "no comment" response.... until literally 2 minutes ago on the local AM news... I am not going to do much speculating other than to say this...

He didn't look at all unusual to me.... the question itself said "do you have any comment on that" ("That" being the report) The answer: while shaking his head no, "I have no comment"

People continue to parse out his every move. If this August had not gone the way it went, none of these conversations would be occurring. Maybe 2019 is his last season. Maybe not. I'm with @BB73 I'm willing to wait until Urban is ready to talk about his future....

There would be too many out of work armchair body language experts and psychologists with your approach :lol:

As if Ryan Day is going to stop any premier program from taking our recruits, or winning current recruiting battles. It simply just changes the argument.

"You can't trust Ryan Day, he's an unproven nobody. You don't even know what his coaching staff will look like." etc etc

What you think is a good idea is simply a lose/lose.
Certainly the coaching instability would not cost them a #1 overall recruit from Columbus that plays a position of dire need with basically no fall back options.
Think of the work they could do if they focused on trying to discern meaning from Harbaugh's blank stares and dumbass comments.
Who does not even need to negative recruit because most of this fanbase does it for him.

OK, all you that have a PhD in Body Language have me at a disadvantage. I don't have a degree in reading people by watching new clips.

While I agree something is up, I try to look for the simplest explanation because all other things being equal, it usually is the correct explanation. (Occam's Razor for those with a science background)

For example, if Urban is retiring for because of the pain from his cyst, why coach even 1 year. If you are in the type of pain that you feel you need to leave your dream job, the only reason you would say 1 more year and then I am done, is money. Urban won't have money problems if he stays or goes. If Urban is coaching in 2019, the simple explanation is I want to see if I can explore new treatments or manage my condition better so I can go out on my terms and timeline.

Then there is the fact this story was released by Football Scoops via twitter. Now I know some of you are saying that it is amazing how accurate news organizations that have no direct affiliations with OSU football (such as Brent McDipshit) have been all year. But it bothers me that the source for this is someone second hand information at best.

As far as Shelly Meyer, you can either believe that she was overcome with emotion because after beating Michigan she only had 1 more year go. Or after what may have been the most difficult year of being a coaches wife (her last year in Florida may have been worse), she saw he husband's team do the one thing that matter most to him on the field, beat his rival. And in doing so all the frustration, anxiety of this season and the joy of that moment came to the surface. You chose what you believe.

To me the simplest explanation is Urban Meyer is the coach at Ohio State and he wants to remain the coach. Because there are questions as to how long Urban will want to remain coach, OSU is signing Ryan Day to a new contract that will provide a succession plan for when Urban decides to step down.

Why would Ryan Day do this. Consider the following

What job can he take this year is a job you can't turn down?

If a "can't turn down" job does open he can go for it when it does.

If he decides to stay until Urban leaves, he inherits a Top 5 program and Urban's machine

He will be paid lots of money

The good news is we won't have to wait long to find out who is right

Just fed my cat some rat poison. When it quits writhing I will slit it open with an exacto knife and remove its entrails.

Should have a reliable answer on Urban's future in about an hour.

If that fails I will throw some beans on the floor and do a little flavomancy. (Wish I had thought of that first, would have been a lot easier on the cat.)
