lol what? I think you were the first one who told me I was wrong on this. This was a done deal since early last week, I was spot on. He wanted the Holidays for himself and his family. First thing Monday morning this is announced. No one is better then this guy, this is the perfect fit for Ohio St.

i didn't say you were wrong at all. i just thought i'd post that excerpt since it wasn't a done deal, and i've seen espn make up crap before. i don't trust them when they bring out 'sources say'.
i think les has left lsu twice now, according to espn and their 'sources'. yet, he's still there.


too bad that meyer had to lie tho, when he said there'd been no offer. guess he went to the saban school of how to answer questions.

at any rate, yes i did laugh when you said there's nowhere better than osu. i can think of plenty of places that are better.

I did not mean nowhere better then OSU. I meant not a better fit for Ohio St then Urban Meyer. Because he wins everywhere he goes, hence he should win at Ohio St. The Big 10 is nothing special and Ohio St has a big time QB who Meyer wanted at FL already in place. The way I phrased it I can see how it was confused for what you said though.

The announcement waited until after the weekend because he was attending his fathers funeral this weekend. Had nothing to do with the holidays.

Urban Meyer is a great coach and a very good person. the fucl<eye's are fortunate to get him.

I once thought and said the same about Joe Paterno. Urban may be, but all in life is not what it seems. Paterno was very lacking as a person in many aspects despite not being all evil....I suspect the same of Meyer.

Aside from meeting him once and knowing one former player of his how do you know this to be true?

He could be the greatest guy in the world, but leaving Florida as soon as it got a little tough, while citing health issues, only to comeback less than a year later at a different school seems shady to me.

I didn't know this but I doubt they would announce a new coach before your biggest rivalry game. Why undermine and make your current coach a lame duck before Michigan? It would have been an even bigger distraction.

Agree. It made sense to do it now. In hindsight it's pretty funny to think about how many times Meyer denied this.
