    Columnist says Urban Meyer coming to Ohio State

    Orlando Sentinel's Mike Bianchi makes a rather bold prediction on the Ohio State situation. "Urban Meyer will be coaching Ohio State when the 2012 season commences." Listed below is the text of his prediction.

    "Now that Tennessee has fired Bruce Pearl, isn't it only a matter of time before Jim Tressel resigns at Ohio State and former Florida Gators coach Urban Meyer takes over.

    I am convinced of it.

    Obviously Meyer wants to decompress, take some time off from coaching and spend some quality time with his family. And he will get a chance to do just that this season while the vultures circle Tressel at Ohio State. With Tennessee firing basketball coach Bruce Pearl for similar transgressions to Tressel's, it's inevitable that Ohio State will eventually pull the plug on Tressel, too.

    Let's face it, Tressel has lost all credibility and could face massive sanctions once the NCAA is done investigaing his role in covering up violations by his players. If the NCAA hammer falls and the Buckeyes struggle this year (and you know they will with quarterback Terrelle Pryor and Tressel suspended for the first five games), the pressure will mount and Tressel will ultimately resign.

    That's when a refreshed Meyer will be ready to return to coaching and take over a program he rooted for as a kid. It's common knowledge Meyer idolized Woody Hayes and grew up a huge Ohio State fan in Ashtabula, Ohio. His intense, conservative, no-nonsense approach to the game is a perfect fit for the Big Ten powerhouse that Woody Hayes built."

    This guy is convinced that Meyer will be coming to Ohio State.

    Anyone out there see this happening??

    Spark, Urban Meyer will coach again as a head coach or not at all. He's always said his dream job would be Notre Dame and being from Ohio, its well known he's a big Ohio State admirer.

    He won't be a coordinator, but may return to college ranks one day as a head coach.

    The way ND goes thru coaches, is just a matter of time until Urban Renewal comes to South Bend.

    I doubt that the Ohio State A.D. has the cajones to fire Tressel, even if the NCAA nails him for a year and puts Ohio State on probation, costing them scholarships and possibly a bowl game. I alos believe that Meyer wanhts no part of Ohio State. Who would want to move out of sunny Florida for Ohio?

    Urban would be a power in the Big 10. He would recruit circles around everyone else. He would build a speed infested dominant defensive team that would kill his conference foe's

    Urban sucks? Really? How many championship has he won? I believe that it is more than any head coach up North.

    This story actually makes sense. There's a lot brewing at Ohio State right now.

    WH, you say "redneck" likes it's a bad thing, BTW Hook's biggest offense is he's into red elephant porn.

    Urban will go down as one of the greatest CFB coaches and I'm sure with ND's recruiting power he would turn ND into the powerhouse it once was. He might even get them to break the SEC's hammerlock on the National Championship (now 5 years straight).
