Urban Meyer

Are things going to start to unravel for him. I am sure everyone has seen the comments from his players. After he left Florida there was a lot of stuff come out about how he lost control of the locker room and showed certain players special privileges and let them get away with what ever. Is this starting to happen at OSU?

Whether it's high school, college, or pro if the players don't respect the coach then it's hard for the program to do well. Not saying there aren't exceptions, but when the players start openly criticizing coaching decisions then a lot of times it's just the beginning of the end.

If you really think about it, the idea that Urban is a disciplinarian and keeps a tight ship is a farce. Here is one person that is willing to call a spade a spade ... http://www.secrant.com/ncaa-football/cl ... /59810840/

If I was coaching the last regular season game I would give Elliot the ball every down!!! Watch him be shut down like fornette and his stock drop. Then after they lose big to michagan say I did what Elliot said I should have done last week and we lost again!!! How quickly they forget a national championship. Players need to know their place in the game. They are not above everyone. You don't see lsu running back running his mouth wanting the ball after several poor games against good defenses. Ohio st finally plays a good team and all hell breaks loose.

To be fair, there was chatter from the Fournette camp early in the season that they didn't want him getting so many carries, feeling like he was being abused.

Sub-Urban didnt have a single top 25 team on the OSU schedule, UNTIL they played Mich. State, and that game didnt turn out so good for him....and, Mich. might just be the nail in his coffin, this year....OSU will prolly be just another 10-2 team, looking for a decent bowl game....jmho.
