I'm at a loss to understand why we can't get this hire right.. Who was the last good OL coach we had? It can't be that difficult... Am I crazy? I would think we could just go get the Wisconsin OL coach each year we need one. They seem to always have a bruising line. Or whoever is recruiting OL at Alabama.

Every offensive lineman on our roster is a pussy. This is a personnel problem. I know, the coaches are responsible for recruiting. Let's pray every lineman hits the portal.

I'm hoping for Urban, but even if he is the next coach I'm going to be pessimistic as hell. I was pessimistic when Mack was hired and he turned out to be a decent hire for 10 years or so, I was fairly optimistic when Charlie was hired, and I was really optimistic when Tom was hired. Bottom line is I know jackshit when it comes to hiring coaches and I'm tired of being dissapointed. Don't expect much and you'll rarely be dissapointed.

Jesus this is moronic.  After Tressel and the quick pivot to Fickell, Urban set them on a path to success like few other programs.  MNC, multiple conference championships and 10+ win seasons YOY.  This board would shit itself to have Urbans worst season at tOSU.

I've noticed you say a lot of stupid shit on a wide variety of topics. Almost universally, and I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt when I say "almost." Because I can't think of a  single counterexample. You should probably just stay in your hut and shut the fuck up.

Don't presume to lecture me on Buckeye football. I've forgotten more about Buckeye football than you'll ever know.

Your spittle doesn't warrant the dignity of a response but it's a subject I might comment on for the enlightenment of others. Tressel and Meyer had pretty similar records at tOSU. Both had one national championship and two failures in the same pursuit. Both got blown out once in embarrassing fashion. 

Urban was undefeated at 7-0 against Michigan. Tressel went 9-1. But Urban didn't face Lloyd Carr. Michigan has been in a coaching desert since Lloyd retired. Tressel won seven conference championships at OSU. Meyer won three. Huge advantage for Tressel.

But you said "multiple conference championships" as if Meyer did better in that regard. Why did you say that? It's not true. It's not even remotely close to being true.

I'm betting it's because you think football is all about offense and Urban Meyer is known for a dynamic offense while Jim Tressel was known for a boring offense, punt and play defense, so naturally you assume Meyer did better than Treseel. And you're too lazy to fact check yourself before saying something stupid. Am I right?

Meyer instituted a lot if important changes to the program but Tressel probably did more to change the culture and set the stage for his success after the Cooper years.

"You'll never be fired for buying Xerox." That was a saying back in the day when companies were being courted by then-new upstarts in the copier business--the Savins, the Canons, etc. They'd come in with extremely competitive pricing trying to get procurement officers to switch from old reliable Xerox and give their copiers a try. About all Xerox had was its reputation, so they downplayed the newcomers' reliability, saying, "If you screw this up, it's your job, baby. Everybody knows Xerox. It's the safe choice. Stay with us."

This is where CDC is right now. Urban is Xerox. Why take a chance on a glitzy newcomer? "You'll never be fired for hiring Urban."

Never seen it?... and then it happened again the next day in the Falcons game.

Rarely happens and then BAM! Two days in a row it happens and both teams who scored end up losing.

Main concern is the pushback from the admin due to UM history at UF and tOSU, so that will take some talking.  Just know, any talk you hear about large buyouts, and not being able to afford it is bogus.  We can afford anything, only limited by what they are willing to cut the check for.  And guys, im talking massive contract.

I'll contact Thujone to get the "Longhorn coaching hire roller coaster" cartoon started. When you get the "super-secret high legel insider" info on when Urban's wife lands in Austin to start looking for homes, please pass it along.

Let me guess, option #2 is Art Briles.

Meanwhile, grab your ankles and get ready for the torrent of ridicule that will be unleashed upon UT and the UT brand as people continue to insist the Longhorn administration is so tires of having a sub-par football program that they would even discuss hiring - hold your nose- Urban Meyer.

But as long as the "highly connected" are reporting it, it has to be true.

Thanks for the insider info.

edit: you are going to have to do something to show you aren't a troll - because 0 posting history, 0 bona fides and posting stuff like "Briles was brought up but was a hard no" doesn't inspire any kind of real faith in what you are saying. in fact the Briles stuff makes it pretty obv to me you are trolling.

I will paste the full text below. The blog he pasted was written by a Penn State Psych student and includes this as the conclusion:

  Quote

I believe that these events discussed are examples of temptations.  Temptations are situations that entice an individual to violate ethical codes of conduct and are characteristics of the environment and surrounding social situation (Pennsylvania State University, L02, 2018).  Having been given a generous contract extension and the lofty expectations of heading one of the premier college football teams in the nation, Urban Meyer made the decision to lie and withhold information about the knowledge he possessed regarding domestic abuse allegations against one of his colleagues.  His actions represent the actions of an unethical leader.  Unethical leadership involves self-serving values and motives that has very little regard for societal-level standards of behavior (Pennsylvania State University , L02, 2018).  Ethical leadership is similar to servant leadership in that both theories place an emphasis on the responsibility a leader has within society (Brown, Treviño, & Harrison, 2005).  I feel that Urban Meyer violated these principles by failing to report his knowledge of Zach Smith’s domestic abuse allegations and Ohio State University also violated these same principles when discipling Meyer.  Handing out a $570,000 fine and three game suspension to an individual set to make $7.6 million over the next year seems too inadequate in my personal opinion.  Both Meyer and the university failed to uphold their ethical responsibility to society, would you agree?

Expand  

just curious RD but how many P5 college football coaches in 2020 do you think are "ethical"?

let me take it a step further - how many winning P5 college football coaches in 2020 do you think are "ethical"?

If your bar for hiring a coach is that he has to truly be a man of ethics, then the position is going to be open for a long, long, long, long, long, long, long time.

Considering we just lost a huge recruit this morning and our program is spiraling terribly, the odds that a new poster who shows up with super secret inside info is an aggy troll vs legit feel quite high.

On the other hand, I like the drug he's selling, so it's probably legit.

The shitstorm of justifiable ridicule that would result from his hiring of Urban Meyer would be epic. Neither Jay Hartzell nor CDC would last long enough to see Urban coach his first game. It would rank as one of the epic blunders in the history of UT Austin.

I'm not the one claiming to have inside information. I'm the one claiming to understand the politics of the situation enough to understand why it isn't going to happen.

Urban Meyer is a brutally damaged person with horrible ethics. One could call him "human scum." He's a sociopath.

Hiring such a polarizing personality as the face of the school's football program would be epic. And not in a positive way.
