"No desire" to coach again - Urban Meyer
Aww bummer, so sad when a bunch of grown men have to delete all those AI pics of a guy who vaguely resembles Urban's third cousin dressed as the MSU football coach.

That man knows his desires

October 16th, 2023 at 4:13 PM ^
Urban and I share the same desire.

Thinks her butt is a Pringles can.
October 16th, 2023 at 6:37 PM ^
I doesn't know how to speak the truth either
October 16th, 2023 at 4:05 PM ^
That’s interesting. Last I heard he was measuring the drapes in the coach’s office over there in East Landfill.
October 16th, 2023 at 7:07 PM ^
Might want to have those drapes dry cleaned.
October 16th, 2023 at 4:07 PM ^
Poor sparty will have to settle for Mike McDaniel or Kyle Shanahan with Kirby Smart as a fall back option.
October 16th, 2023 at 4:23 PM ^
I'm kinda surprised that Sparty hasn't brought in Pat (dickhead) Narduzzi. The angry-man-d'antonio-wannabe.
If I recall correctly, he was pushing his players to try to hurt Dennard and was happy when Gholston tried to rip his head off. Isn't this just the kind of coach they want there in EL?
October 16th, 2023 at 4:44 PM ^
I wonder if Narduzzi is a guy who missed the boat on jumping up when he had the chance. His stock was at an all-time high after the 2021 season and winning the ACC with Pickett. Then they tapered off a little last year but I think they still won nine games. Now they're just bad again.
Narduzzi is probably a fit culturally at MSU, but he's on a downward trend and with how much tougher the conference is about to get next year, I doubt MSU is willing to take a chance on that.
October 16th, 2023 at 5:13 PM ^
Who else are they gonna get? They're a trash program with no coaching tree. The only thing going for them is being in the big ten.
October 16th, 2023 at 5:23 PM ^
In spartys defense they are one of three big ten schools to make the playoffs. I totally understand the desire to denigrate their program but it's a solid average+ P5 job.
October 16th, 2023 at 6:00 PM ^
Sparty will not be happy with all those adjectives about their program. LOL.
October 16th, 2023 at 6:56 PM ^
I'd guess that Narduzzi's next stop will a condo in Florida (i.e., retirement). He's 57 and probably fine financially.
October 16th, 2023 at 8:15 PM ^
I assumed its gonna be him or maybe Tom Herman.
October 16th, 2023 at 4:08 PM ^
I can easily see this comment in the context of a specific B1G school located in East Lansing.
However, there may be something brewing a bit further south - in College Station, Texas. And, what appears to be a simmer - may soon become a boil - that is - handling a little buyout for Jimbo Fisher. It would seem to me that those boosters who contributed quite significantly to the NIL process a year or so ago - would reach even further into their pockets for a coach that could get them to double digit wins and CFP appearances.
What will Urban say when they open up the negotiation with - "We have have the facilities - we're in a recruiting hotbed - we need you as our coach. How does $12M / year sound to you?"
October 16th, 2023 at 4:11 PM ^
How does a football practice facility named after our basketball coach sound to you?
October 16th, 2023 at 9:23 PM ^
Brilliant! Where does Urban sign up? 😂
October 16th, 2023 at 4:23 PM ^
Plus, no state income tax. Just like Florida!
October 16th, 2023 at 4:09 PM ^
Counting on Urban Meyer to save you is the most Michigan State thing ever. Then when it all falls apart, what's there even left to say?
October 16th, 2023 at 4:19 PM ^
Nothing says Sparty more than turning to Ohio State for an answer when Michigan is kicking their ass
October 17th, 2023 at 8:51 AM ^
Underrated comment...
The Sparty go to move.
October 16th, 2023 at 4:46 PM ^
I honestly figured if they could get him, they'd announce this week. Trying to scare Michigan by announcing they hired Meyer, even though he won't even coach until next year, would also be very on-brand. I told a Sparty friend that if they haven't announced him this week before halftime of the Michigan game, he's not coming lol.
"They're keeping it secret!"
"But if they announce now, he can start recruiting."
"Yeah but now he can SECRETLY!"
The delusion and cope truly are next-level.
October 16th, 2023 at 4:09 PM ^
I wonder if Sparty would throw money at someone on Harbaugh's staff.
October 16th, 2023 at 4:14 PM ^
I'd hope they're not short sighted enough to take those calls. Sherrone Moore or Jesse Minter should have much better offers than resurecting Sparty right before the conference gets stupidly tough
Although I'd love to hear Mike Hart's reply if they were ever ballsy enough to ask him lol
October 16th, 2023 at 5:25 PM ^
Dear sparty, JIm's coming, and he's bringing Mike.
October 16th, 2023 at 9:45 PM ^
Mike Hart, Michigan State Head Coach would be maybe the most hilarious thing to ever happen to this rivalry.
October 16th, 2023 at 5:01 PM ^
This was a topic on tRCMB in the last week re: Coach Moore.... and although that group doesn't represent most MSU fans, the conclusion was "no way Jose"
Apparently that group would not accept any help related to UM football, even if they were on a sinking ship (metaphorically speaking) or in a dangerous place --- like a tunnel.
October 16th, 2023 at 7:11 PM ^
And they only want a proven P5 guy with head coaching experience who would go there for...reasons.
Oh yeah, they are going to pay him 1 million gazillion dollars.
October 16th, 2023 at 4:10 PM ^
There was no part of me that believed Meyer would want to even attempt a resurrection of MSU football, and really, they are at a point culturally and legally where this would have been the worst possible hire anyway. In any case, it was amusing to see a few fans here and there cling to this like flies to flypaper, only because it shows that they don't want to learn the most important lessons from the Tucker fallout.
October 16th, 2023 at 4:16 PM ^
“Hmm. So our coach was fired due to an off-the-field controversy. What are our options?”
”Bring back our last coach who quit to escape an investigation into his handling of off-the-field controversies??”
“Wait. Would he come back?”
”No.”
”What are our other options?”
”Well, there is ONE guy who has quit multiple jobs to escape multiple off-the-field controversies…”
”Brilliant. Any sexual harassment allegations?”
”Does cheating on your wife count?”
”No.”
”Then no.”
October 16th, 2023 at 4:10 PM ^
"Yeah but what if he wants the hardest coaching job of his life? He could really prove himself the GOAT if he takes Michigan State to the Natty while fending off peak Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State and the incoming West Coast schools while being the 20th best paid coach in football!"

Whoever wrote that must have visited the "free cannabis" store I see on I75 on my way down south to A2 for UM games. LOL!
October 16th, 2023 at 4:10 PM ^
B.S.
This is either “I’d rather die than coach Sparty” or it’s “you better add a zero to the end of that offer.”
If there’s one thing that Urbz LOVES, it’s being top dog in a consequence free environment where a lot of young men live in fear of him and a lot of young not-his-wifes cozy up to him.
I bet one fake internet dollar that when the USC job opens up, Meyer goes after it.
October 16th, 2023 at 4:38 PM ^
Your perspective on USC is prescient. Riley was offered a LOT to go there, and - if this turns into a four loss season, with a returning Heisman winning QB - those Trojan boosters will reach out to Urban - and so will the Aggies.
USC is a VERY nice position for him - he'll soak up the Southern California sun and recruiting. I'm quite sure you'll have more than one taker for a fake internet dollar.
October 16th, 2023 at 5:01 PM ^
Judging by their post-Carroll HC parade, USC boosters are a bunch of morons.
October 16th, 2023 at 4:16 PM ^
He’s younger than Harbaugh. Buckeye job will be open soon. I hear it’s his dream job.
October 16th, 2023 at 4:17 PM ^
So over at RCMB the most active thread is "Hire Urban Meyer now!" and few posts down there's an identical thread to this one.
The comments in that one though are gold. You see he only said that to increase his offer from MSU because, as 22Duece22 said "MSU is his dream job so announcing this forces MSU to pony up even more money". Basically the posters in that thread have convinced themselves he only said that as a negotiating tactic.
They are gonna absolutely lose it when they hire whoever the OC is at Kansas or Washington State or the third best MAC HC instead.. They truly and honestly believe he is going there to coach.
October 16th, 2023 at 4:22 PM ^
Delusion runs strong in that fanbase.
October 16th, 2023 at 4:23 PM ^
Something tells me that Jimbo Fisher might also be involved... and, since hitting is very important - don't be surprised if Scott "We outhit them" Frost and his mom are interviewed as a package deal.
October 16th, 2023 at 4:23 PM ^
I had stayed away from RCMB for many years but ventured over there when the situation with tuggin' Tuck came out.
They are a delusional bunch.
They seem to think that MSU is a top-ten blue chip college football program.
Referring to Michigan as "scUM" seems to evoke a Beavis and Butthead-type reaction over there.
I had multiple Spartys tell me that their 2021 season was more of a success than Michigan's...since they won the rivalry game and their bowl game.
Also had multiple Spartys make the argument that Tucker was a better coach than Harbaugh because he got a raise...and Harbaugh got a pay cut.
The collective amnesia is impressive. They've all clearly forgotten that football was played before 2009 and after 2015...and that the last few years of Dantini's tenure were a hot mess.
October 16th, 2023 at 4:38 PM ^
Interesting. Know who else got a raise in the past few years? Me.
Meanwhile, the Rolls Royce CEO is retiring, which has to be considered a drop in pay.
Therefore, RobGoBlue = better businessman than Mr. Rolls Royce. #spartanlogic
October 16th, 2023 at 10:06 PM ^
"tuggin' Tuck" LOL
Tuck comin' indeed.
October 17th, 2023 at 12:04 AM ^
Actually, their true glory era was from 2010 (tied for B1G title with UW and Ohio) to 2015. Other than 2012 7-6 clunker, they had some excellent seasons while UM was way down, PSU going thru the post Sandusky loss of scholarships, etc. But Ohio was very strong 2013-2015 and Dicktonio, being a royal penis that he still is, did beat Urban twice when it mattered.
That being said, Dicktonio left a rotting outhouse while collecting a bonus in February 2020. Also the Blackwell scandal.
RCMB is packed with people who once aspired to graduate from UM but got that dreaded "we regret to inform you...." from UM Admissions Office. Bitter clowns indeed.
October 16th, 2023 at 5:16 PM ^
This is some QAnon level crap.
October 16th, 2023 at 5:32 PM ^
Nah they won't lose it. They'll just post memes of him smoking a cigar and boast about a bunch of 3.5 star commits that never set foot on campus
October 16th, 2023 at 4:22 PM ^
He's definitely not going somewhere where he has to jerk himself off
October 16th, 2023 at 4:47 PM ^
Definitely an underrated comment.
