re: Report: USC President is opposed to hiring Urban Meyer as head coach

Has Urban Meyer even expressed an interest in getting back into coaching? He just left a pretty cushy job at a CFB blue blood program where he had a pretty good shot at making the CFP every year and had established paternity over their biggest rival. Why would he want to walk away from that, only to get back into coaching again 2 years later to take over a dumpster fire where they’ll be expecting him to immediately compete for championships?

the general sense around here (Ohio) is that Urban was forced/asked to resign due to the zach smith situation, i.e. he didn't exactly leave on his own terms

he's an EXTREMELY competitive guy, IMO top 5 all time CFB coach, and isn't that old. at a place like USC, w/ it being a top 5 all time program, and the abundance of great HS recruits in california, he would absolutely run that conference by year 3, latest. he could walk in any living room and tell them that he has 3 nat'l championships in the 2 toughest conferences, and would help return USC to the top in no time
