Meyer To Stay With OSU..."as long as I can."

If it is really that bad, he shouldn't be coaching. The timing seems odd though for all this to start coming out.
 
Word on the street in Columbus is that Urban Meyer
will resign after this season due to health concerns.
He has severe cluster headaches which are very
painful.
 
Is this the job that Campbell is holding out for? I know what he said before but that was approximately a week before camp started.
 
I live in Columbus, Ohio and LuteHawk is correct. Urban is loved by most fans and the University’s governing body did NOT want to even suspend him. (One board member has resigned in express protest. ) Word is that the OSU president insisted that something be done. However, people are increasingly realizing that the piddling 3 week suspension ( which was in fact not truly for 3 weeks ) negatively reflects upon the acedemic integrity of the school. Whether the school will actually cut the cord is unknowable.... football means a ton around here. However, OSU does not need Urban to be an elite program. The Iowa State coach would certainly get a close look if Urban leaves. LuteHawk probably understands how crazy it is to live with all the Buckeye obsessed fans living around here!!!

You don't need Urban to be elite.....but I'd prefer if you weren't, irregardless. :)

Let's prove people wrong that say the Big Ten can't be a great conference if Ohio State and Michigan are down!!

Don't presume I am an Ohio State fan. If your job caused you to move to Ann Arbor, would you be a Michigan fan? How about Omaha? State College? I certainly would not hang around this site and read your posts if I were not a Hawkeye fan.... I also would not have traveled to Central PA (and sat in the rain last Saturday afternoon), if I was not an alumni and fan of Iowa. Assuming makes an...X... of you.
 
Wouldn't wish health problems on anyone, hope he's not struggling with a health issue. That said, his last health issue coincided precisely with Tim Tebow's graduation/departure from UF.

Pretty sure his departure from Florida had nothing to do with health issues or Tim Tebow.

More like an ultimatum from the Mrs?!?!?!

Seemed to me like his golden boy Timmy was leaving, they won their natty title, he didn't want to start over from scratch, perfect time to depart.
 
Trick-or-treaters in Ames have reported that Campbell’s house “looks pretty empty,” and large boxes were seen “stacked in the living room.” Just passing it on.

I think "holding out for" is a pretty strange way to put it, considering that as far as anybody knows, he hasn't been offered another job, much less turn one down. I don't think he even has an agent.

Not saying he wouldn't go. It would be very difficult for a coach at ISU or just about anywhere else to turn down the job at tOSU.

And it wouldn't be the first time. Earle Bruce went from Ames to Columbia. So, as OC, did Tom Herman. Gene Smith was the AD at ISU and is now the AD at tOSU, but he had a stop at Arizona State in between.

You guys are hilarious .. even mentioning Campbell to OSU...

That's a good one...

Dude hasn't even turned ISU into a winner yet.. loses to cross state rivals and gets out recruited repeatedly


Just what makes you think he could move up to one of the most prolific programs in college football

It isn't ISU fans who are bringing up his name. Maybe it is on this board -- I haven't paid attention -- but not in the real world.
 
It's saddening as a Hawk fan to see all the crazy obsessing over Iowa State.

I'm a Hawkeye, living in Columbus, pull against them every game. Campbell would be in the top 3, if not the favorite because of his ties to Ohio. Would expect a nation wide search, but Campbell can't be discounted unless a big name pops up.
 
Maybe two thirds of your roster showing up on police plotters around the state of Florida might cause some health issues

I will have you know people come from far and wide just to read my posts on this site.)

Well my point still stands for any actual Buckeye fans lurking, so it is what it is.
