Urban Meyer New Ohio State Coach, Bo Pelini Denies Interest - What Do You Think?

by Cobby on Nov 28, 2011 4:18 PM CST in Cobby - Humor

Ohio State will be naming Urban Meyer as their new head coach this afternoon.

It was first reported than Bo Pelini interviewed for the job, something that Pelini has denied.

What do you think?

If Bo Pelini would have taken that job, Nebraska could have hired Turner Gill!Taylor Johannsen - Currently Member of Thieves Guild

At least there won't be another ten-year war, 'cause that sonofabitch Meyer can't stay in one place more than five. Rocky Roberts - Retired Horticulturist

If he didn't interview with them and they wanted him to, he's an idiot! It doesn't matter either way, though, he's getting a raise! Mike Smith - Xbox Programmer

Wait until Meyer tries to run those flashy fast offenses at Ohio State. They'll run him out of town in three years. Barry Felker - Former Olympic Gold Medal Winner

Didn't everyone want Bo Pelini fired last week? That was two weeks ago? Oh, okay. I forgot what week we're on.

You are part of the Rebel Alliance, and a traitor!

Give us the location of Jar Jar Cosgrove, so he can never again pretend to coach a defense.

Oh come now

You don’t really expect me to believe that. What FBS school would ever stoop so low as to hire him after the 2007 abomination at Nebraska.

We'll position the Death Star appropriately

And wait for the NCAA to hand down it’s judgement. I’m sure we’ll get to blast Columbus, but y’never know. The NCAA might surprise us and do it for us.

Not With Urban 'The Man' Meyer There They Won't

NCAA still dithering around, and now that tOSU went out and got THE MAN, NCAA will be even more hesitant to inflict more damage to a marquee program that now has a huge name tied to it.

That's why it would be a surprise

The “laser” is warming up. It’s more refined than the one you see in the movie. It’ll wipe out most of Ohio, while leaving I-80 intact so we can get to Happy Valley and points east. That’s the only part of Ohio we need anyway.

Good taste on line 2

On the announcement Bo will not be the new tOSU HC...

…the press promptly removed face (spit) shields from their Christmas lists.

I don’t think it would have been a good move for Bo:
1. He is a good fit for Nebraska
2. The press and fans in C’bus aren’t as kind on the HC as they are in Nebraska
3. The tOSU major boosters expect a lot of face time with the HC, not a great idea with Bo

Keep faith Corn Nation…
1. If I recall (too lazy to look it up), PSU won the conference title their 2nd year after high expectations their 1st year
2. Sparty will fade with a resurging tSUN (I am not your best source for this one – I predicted them to fade this year)
3. You wiped the field with your division rival
4. You defeated what I predict will be your major conference rival (PSU)
5. Your players learned not to look past the little dogs (NW)
6. In a year where everyone was new to the coaching staff, you had a good inaugural Big Ten outing.

A few more

7. All the WR’s are freshman/Soph
8. First year play caller will have a much better grasp next year.
9. All RB’s and QB will return.

Insert witty retort here.

by Robsa on Nov 28, 2011 7:39 PM CST up reply actions

To pile on.

10. O-Line was full of injured frosh:soph.
11. Defense lost a lot of talent to injuries and the NFL.
12. …

Wait, what team are we talking about? I believe any 8 or 9 of our 11 apply to a lot of the teams we compete against.

On the downside

1. The 3 best players graduate and they all played defense.

I keep telling myself.

The offense isn’t a powerhouse yet, but if this was our offense in 2009, how would that season have turned out?

In the deed, the glory.

probably in the NCG

though now our offense is getting gradually better and our defense gradually worse

The whole Bo to tOSU story doesn't pass the smell test...

It’s been known for weeks that Urban Meyer was Ohio State’s number one choice, and he did nothing to deny it. Why would Bo even go there?

Yep

Coaching searches don’t follow the traditional advertise—→interview——>hire progression.

Plus both Pelini and Osborne denied it. I don’t think either would out and out lie, much less both of them.

I'm not surprised by this

Let’s play what if…..Meyer does not leave Florida, we would most likely be saying bye to Bo.

For the doubters, Bo has a lot of history with Ohio and I do not think he would turn down his dream job, especially with some of the Big Red fans calling for his head.

by BledRed on Nov 29, 2011 3:39 AM CST via mobile reply actions

Ridiculous

The concept of Ohio State wanting Bo is laughable. He has won NOTHING in his HC career. NOTHING. He can’t win the weaker division in a weak conference. Ohio State wouldn’t give him the time of day. It’s a joke for N fans to pretend Bo might go to Ohio State.
