Meyer in @ Ohio

I just can't see him taking this job. They are in big trouble with the NCAA. The fact is regardless of sanctions the fans in Ohio will expect him to win every game. His health got bad at Fla where he was considered a god and he had to quit. His health issues are directly stress related. They wont go away after just one year. I had some of the same stress related issues and my doctor said it takes 2-3 years for your body to recover and if the issues come back they will come back worse. Add to that he has a cushy job at ESPN which allows him to spend time with his kids and go to their sporting events. I believe his daughter plays volleyball in the ACC.

you are making the same mistake I did in terms of taking Meyer's comments at their worth, and assuming he is essentially a decent human being.

If instead you assume he is actually a lying, scheming, opportunist, it makes perfect sense that he'd return to coaching, and at ohio of all places.

Exactly what I was thinking. If you have stress related health issues, why on Earth would you even think about coaching ohio?

Until its reported on ESPN, I won't think its going to happen and even then, I won't be too worried.

Why haven't the crack reporters of ESPN sporting big hard-ons over this yet. I think its just farts in the wind!

Exactly what I thought when I read this thread and saw the source.

I haven't been hearing this on any "real" news at all - not ESPN, or otherwise.

Which is exactly why he will be coaching ohio next year.
