Urban Meyer describes Woody Hayes doing weird things with a turtle.

Submitted by MGoData on

This is just bizarre:

 

"He reaches down and grabs this box, slides the top and there was something in the box moving around. He reaches in and he pulls out this turtle. He reaches down, this turtle's snapping and he says, 'I'm going to show you toughness.' He unzips his pants and takes out whatever he takes out. The turtle reaches up and snaps at him. You see the veins and the sweat (on Hayes). He screams at the coaches, 'That's toughness! That's f'n toughness!'"

get it. Even if true, why the hell would you share that story? That's just disgusting and inappropriate. It makes me shudder to think what stories he has that he deems to inappropriate to tell.

Calculated move by Meyer.  No one tells this story without knowing how it will be received.  While pretending to tell an endearing story about the former coach, he is, in fact, attempting to lower Hayes reputation... thereby loweing the bar for himself to be considered the greatest coach in OSU history.  Meyer is a manipulative premeditating liar.  True story.

They didn't call him that for no reason. Do you think the "sweat and veins" was because the turtle dragged its teeth? This tops Rex Ryan's foot fetish.
