So, what does everyone think about Meyer and Ohio State?

Post by slideman67 »

Does anyone think the rumors are true and he will take the job? Obviously we will find out soon, but as for now we don't know.

I will be very disappointed if he does take this job. For better or worse, it will call into question his health claims as the reason he left UF. I believe him when he said that he left UF for health reasons, as I still have a source in Gainesville that confirmed everything. I don't see how taking a job at Ohio State will be any less stressful. If anything it will be more stressful since he will be expected to win the Big 10 his first year and a National Championship in the 2013 season.

I wish him well and hope that he does what is best for him and his family. But I can't help but feeling a little betrayed if he left us for another coaching job. Granted, he wasn't forced out and left on good terms. And at least if this is true, he is going to another conference, unlike Spurrier (I was disappointed when he came back too, but I don't hate him, unlike a minority some UF fans who posted on GC). But part of me feels like, if he wants to coach, why not for UF, if anything out of loyalty to the program.

Mom has a friend who is a rabid FSU fan who says that the reason why Meyer left was that he couldn't succeed without Tebow. I shot those ideas down the last time I saw her. I hate to say it though, but those ideas will be brought up again if UM goes to OSU.

What do you all think?

he's a douchebag

he quit UF because he wanted to get healthy...he quit UF because he wanted to be with his family...he quit UF because he was not able to provide UF the commitment a university like UF deserves 24/7

how does joining OSU help him get healthier?
how does joining OSU help him be with his family?
how can he provide OSU the commitment that a university like OSU deserves if he can't provide the same commitment to UF?

OK, it's official. I find myself agreeing with Rad completely. I'm very mad right now.

I'm with Rad. I typically root for past coaches but he can eatabagofdicks.com.

Last week his denials should have been the lead on C'Mon Man and now that he has accepted it should lead again given all of the reasons stated by Rad above.
