Your butthurt involvement in any Urban Meyer thread brings a big smile to my face, FWIW.


I think he's posted like 41 times too, so that's a lot of smiles.

If you think I'm butthurt you are mistaken.

I just have the opinion that HS coaches aren't going to be warm and fuzzy with Meyer any longer. That's not unrealistic is it?

For the guy that says I'm putting too much stock into Meyer losing favor with HS coaches in FL...if you don't think so then you have nothing to worry about.

Besides, it doesn't matter anyway. OSU is going to average roughly the same number of kids from S. FL they always do. That OSU guy down there will make sure of it. I can't remember his name right now.

Show the butthurt posts.

Have a ranted on and on about feeling jilted? No.

My stance is that I have always supported Meyer even when I questioned some of his discipline practices. Coach knows best after all right?

I wish him well now. I'm only disappointed that he apparently lied about the reasons for leaving FL and for leaving us in bad shape with scholarship numbers.

Again, if that's butthurt to you then so be it. You've never seen me wish ill will on him. I just have a different opinion of him.

Was wondering if he's the south Florida recruiting guy you were alluding to.

Excellent point. If we could control Cinci that'd be huge.

Well before he was even officially our coach we were able to pull in Adolphus Washington (Cincy Taft HS). Its a good start.

Where would Cincy kids normally go if not OSU?

I thought the whole state was owned by OSU?

Not being sarcastic.

Drayton - no

I was referring to an "advisor" down there.

Is Drayton staying since he's left Meyer twice already?

Michigan recruits hard in NW Ohio and pulls some kids from other areas of the state. This year has been a banner year for them in Ohio.

UC gets a lot of local kids and ND does well with the Catholic schools across the state but particularly well in Cincy.

Lately a couple of the top linebacker recruits have gone to Texas (Jordan Hicks) and Alabama (Trey DePriest). Both were huge fans of those schools growing up and Hicks isn't an Ohio kid.

We rarely pull top talent from Cinci. If they are good they probably go to a Cinci Catholic Schol and go to Notre Dame. And over the past few years the SEC has pulled a lot of top Cinci recruits, like DePriest or Spencer Ware.

Show some class like Utah fans...there's some serious sour grapes from Florida fans as if Meyer was YOURS...he was a transient. Now he's moved on...accept it and embrace your long future with Muschamp.
