Buckeye Fans Worried That Urban Has a Chance To Be Michigan's Next HC?
The Buckeye Wire has put out an article that entitled, "Odds are hilariously out on Urban Meyer being the next Michigan head coach"... The article really just references the Vegas Odds that were put out earlier today by Brett Murphy....
Its a small article, but the author put out a few points that makes it sound as if Buckeye fans may be actually worried if Urban came to Michigan... Here's a few excerpts:
"You have to wonder how Michigan fans would feel if this were to actually get some legs. Let me first say that this is highly, highly unlikely. Not that the Wolverine brass would actually consider it, but there’s no way in Buckeye Grove heaven that Meyer would coach a school whose name he can’t even get himself to utter."
"First and foremost, it’s unlikely Harbaugh’s going anywhere this year, but man, wouldn’t this just add to the rivalry?"
"As if owning Michigan for the seven years he coached at Ohio State wasn’t enough, could you imagine actually “owning” the Wolverines."
Now, what do you think? I personally do not believe there is a chance that this will ever happen. But when Vega's puts it down and Buckeye fans seem to be giving some worry to it, it has to make one wonder, could this happen??
I personally wonder if Harbaugh ends up leaving after the year, who would we get? Who would be better? As for Urban coming to Michigan, the question is "Why not?" If roles were reversed, do you honestly believe that Harbaugh wouldn't have taken the HC at Ohio State if it were offered to him? Or even Michigan State?
Not a chance, if the money was right...
Ed Warriner was an OSU guy, now he is our guy.
Greg Mattison was Michigan Man, now his on the dark side....
Nick Saban coached LSU and then went their rival, Alabama after his short stint in the NFL...
Again, I'm not saying its a remote possibility that its happening, but y'all are dreaming if you think these guys take the rivalry as serious as we do and wouldn't dare coach at their rival team that they rooted against as a coach or a player.

This kind of crap hurts recruiting... Harbaugh will finish out his contract, he won't be leaving after this season....
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:18 PM ^
Can't disagree, but it's on Harbaugh, imo, and our showing Saturday is what really would hurt recruiting.
This is his 100% his program now.
September 24th, 2019 at 9:05 AM ^
100% on Harbaugh. Not the fans, not the alumni, not the donors fault. We can be as critical as we need to be as the consumer.
September 24th, 2019 at 9:45 AM ^
Yeah. Harbaugh has 6 fumbles and 3 interceptions this year !
Go Blue!
September 24th, 2019 at 5:50 PM ^
He recruited every player on this team, iirc.
He developed every player on this team.
He picked the starters on this team.
September 24th, 2019 at 12:26 AM ^
Wouldn't want to stop getting those highly rated players . We might start losing to good teams.
September 24th, 2019 at 1:18 AM ^
Having three NFL wide receivers on the team and not throwing the ball to them hurts recruiting more.
September 24th, 2019 at 8:25 AM ^
Pretty sure how the team is playing is hurting recruiting.
September 24th, 2019 at 9:58 AM ^
I would say embarrassing yourself on the field hurts recruiting much more, no?
September 24th, 2019 at 10:56 AM ^
But no one say anything about it on this board, because some recruit might read this and change their mind about coming! Of course, how Michigan playing right now has no bearings on that though.
September 24th, 2019 at 11:32 AM ^
Oh shit. Kiss our 18th ranked class good bye!
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:09 PM ^
These awful threads need to stop
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:13 PM ^
How is pointing out articles that are obvious for anyone to see hurting recruiting? Its not like these kids have their head in the sand. And its not like anything that I am saying is already out there on the internet for folks to read? Do you really think recruits come to this site and say, "Wow, look how negative the fans are right now! I don't want to go to Michigan now!" Seriously, you got to be joking...
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:22 PM ^
I agree. It's people that keep their head in the sand that 'it's only 1 loss' and 'we're 2-1' that are a bigger problem than someone posting an article about our program
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:30 PM ^
Good point... All of CFB can see what's going on and realizes it doesn't pass the sniff test... One article isn't going to change that perception... A turnaround season will though. And that is what I am hoping for...
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:34 PM ^
Agreed.
I come to this blog so I don't have to search the entire net to see what peeps are saying about our team.
Links are going to be pro and con and if you can't deal with it, don't click on the thread or take it up with the author of the article.
Go Blue!
September 24th, 2019 at 12:28 AM ^
Hope in one hand and shit in the other.....see which one fills up faster.
September 24th, 2019 at 12:38 AM ^
This article made me chuckle, Luke Fickell? Really? No, Really? lol I will go out on a limb and say that there is ZERO I mean 0 % chance Luke Fickell is our coach in 2020 LOL
September 24th, 2019 at 6:29 AM ^
That was the one that got me also. Luke fucking Fickell. ????
September 24th, 2019 at 9:19 AM ^
He’s shown that he can make Ohio State lose...
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:11 PM ^
He will be 0-5 against OHIO
September 24th, 2019 at 12:43 AM ^
1-4, 2016 was a win in my book.
September 24th, 2019 at 12:43 AM ^
1-4, 2016 was a win in my book.
September 24th, 2019 at 10:44 AM ^
Then you are illiterate.
September 24th, 2019 at 4:46 PM ^
Not in reality.
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:12 PM ^
Again, OSU was not just a job for Urban. Florida was - OSU was not.
And assistant coaches will go anywhere for a promotion. Urban isn't really in that predicament.
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:12 PM ^
No - stop this nonsense
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:12 PM ^
Urban and Gundy are the only 2 worthwhile from that list.
Shaw ain’t leaving Stanford and his shine has worn down over the last couple years. Hasn’t done shit with 2 5 star QBs in Costello and Mills. Who does that remind you of?
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:13 PM ^
This shit is getting out of hand. It's not even worth beating osu if it takes bringing that guy on. Don't want it.
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:46 PM ^
I like to be relevant
September 24th, 2019 at 3:42 PM ^
I'll take the win over OSU, and it would be particularly sweet if Urban made that happen! Would thoroughly chap the a$$es of their fan base!
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:14 PM ^
Aren't these posts and rumors more embarrassing for you guys than us anyway?
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:19 PM ^
Yes, and it’s going to something catastrophic for harbaugh not to be here near year or the following
September 24th, 2019 at 2:12 AM ^
Yes but it makes me laugh that anybody at OSU would worry about it.
September 24th, 2019 at 3:36 PM ^
Dude, pretty much EVERYTHING is more embarrassing for us than you right now.
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:14 PM ^
Make it stop.
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:17 PM ^
Your writing style is very confusing.
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:20 PM ^
Sorry, I didn't run it through grammarly.
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:17 PM ^
Anyone who would bet any of those odds has a problem. Maybe if the top 3 were like 11-1 it would be worth it.
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:29 PM ^
Not even the slightest chance.
Zero. Zilch. Nada. 0.0. Funny though.
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:29 PM ^
The guy literally hates Michigan. He revels in the fact this program is a laughingstock. USC just signed their next Heisman trophy winning QB and Meyer will guide him there.
September 24th, 2019 at 12:03 AM ^
September 24th, 2019 at 10:07 AM ^
He does not hate Michigan. As the head coach of Ohio State he has to do things to motivate the players.
In his book he said his wife couldn’t veto him from going to Michigan, OSU, or Notre Dame, indicating to me that there’s at least been some interest on his side. Maybe that’s only in the past now but you’ll only know if you ask. He’s loyal to where he’s at and right now he’s a free agent.
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:31 PM ^
I don't want Meyer if he came for free, but I know my voice doesn't count.
it will be embarrassing to me as long time die hard Michigan fan if there is some kind of critical mass that develops for this in the fan base.
It would honestly hurt me more than the losing if he came here
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:33 PM ^
Shouldn't People be mad that Luke Fickell is in the running? I mean, come on, seriously? Who wants him?
September 24th, 2019 at 9:45 AM ^
He's not in the running because there is no "running." Fake Odds.
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:33 PM ^
I would love this to be true but Urban is not coming to Michigan and we are not gonna fire Harbaugh. We are stuck with him for now. Sigh
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:34 PM ^
Luke Fickell...nuff said
September 23rd, 2019 at 11:35 PM ^
He wouldn't have to be ashamed of his initials anymore.
