"Mike Sanford. Sanford chose play calling with the Domers over a QB/co-OC role here. Oh, what could have been..."

QB/co-OC is exactly what he is here. He's not calling plays for us either. They don't know what they're talking about.

While he may not have called plays there just like ND, he does get input in game prep all week long. There's a chance for positive influence on the garbage they called all game vs msu.

Glad he is with us!

Same thing happened at Florida. Urban is a great coach and recruiter. But he lets the inmates run the asylum. Thus the reason Florida fell apart, even though they had the most talent according to recruiting sites.

big thing at florida was that urbie did not discipline his star players when they acted against the best interests of the team. this will be his downfall again at OSU. Elliot really shouldn't play another snap in Columbus after what he said.

Can anyone offer -or link to- an accepted (by ND fans) account of the Urban/ND flirtation, or whatever it was, from 2004?

I was not following ND back when it happened, and the research I've done yields fairly different accounts. Needed for a discussion with OSU folks.

Ohio State’s one loss could cost Urban Meyer up to $300,000 in missed bonuses

Of the potential $500,000 in bonuses he likely won’t receive (unless Ohio State gets a lot of help for the chance to defend its national title), Meyer is almost certainly going to get a $200,000 bonus for the Buckeyes making a non-playoff bowl game, likely the Rose or Fiesta.
Meyer's salary is $6.5 million.

Last year, Meyer collected $400,000 in bonuses.

The average income of homeowners in Ohio is $49,308.

Don't have any links for you ATM, but my recollection is that he basically leveraged ND against Florida to get PAID. And it worked.

USATODAY.com - Urban Meyer jilts Notre Dame, heads to Florida

Meyer says Irish never made offer

Here's The Truth Behind The Meyer Hiring - tribunedigital-orlandosentinel

The Blue-Gray Sky: What if Urban Meyer had chosen Notre Dame?

If this is the same research or does not address your arguments, PM me with more specifics.

"His status for the Jan. 1 Fiesta Bowl against Notre Dame is unclear."


"Urban Meyer: 'Obviously we don't condone that (either). He came to me and apologized...we squashed that as a team.' "
lol so basically what I've learned is that as long as you say sorry to UM, you can pretty do/say whatever you want.

Dudes, EVERY coach lies, oftentimes with a straight face. Why the hell do you think that Tom Osborne got into politics? Because he could tell bald-faced lies in a second consecutive job, and not get called out for it.

Same could be said about Saint Bobby, or any number of coaches.

No, you guys got it wrong; Urban takes this seriously. He'll bench him for all of the Buckeyes' offensive serieses.

That's like half the game. We should try to let pOsu win the time of possession game so that he plays less then a half.

I think Urban and Gene Smith will make some grand statements about him being suspended from games until next year ;)

Driving with a suspended license isn't the worst offense, but it's worth at least a half game suspension.

I think all of the top 100 prospects should commit to OSU right now, just to save themselves a spot if they really wanna go there

So, Akers will commit, and Dobbins will get forced out, and then Ohio State fans will say that he jumped on one of Urban's non-committable offers.

lol @ Dobbins not being on a committable offer.

I do not like Ohio State.

But boy do I love it when Michigan gets toasted.
