insubstantial retraction
Well played

Agree, as it sounds like an insubstantial coach forcing an insubstantial apology for his insubstantial school.
Insubstantial is such a weird adjective for urban to use.

Are we still doing "phrasing?"
What a dumbass - this story lingered for several days and made this kid out to be the victim.
Enjoy winning 4-5 games a year.

Maybe he received a tattoo for changing his tone? Maybe a Escalade? Tractor? Kinda weird.
Or a bag of potatoes.
Or a "slightly" used blue cooler....
Oh Bull. We all love when we're right. I didn't actually nail it but I felt there just had to be more to the story than this young man was letting on. It' s just not the type of rejection and then later on offer you would associate with a coach whose had success at every stop. You certainly don't have to blow fairy dust up their anal cavity, but I am certain these successful coaches go out of their way to leave the best possible impression.
Look what happened two days after the media, and even some of our fans attacked Harbaugh just prior to signing day. Within a day, the young man made certain to clear up the misunderstanding. Actually, in both of these cases, the players still received D1 scholies and a chance to prove themselves.
Are you serious? You believe this form letter apology?
Dudes
Fuck Urban Meyer
Fuck Ohio State
Fuck Columbus
and Fuck the state of Ohio in general.
Carry on.
Fuck Skyline Chili
Fuck Drew Caray
Fuck the Ohio Turnpike
Fuck Carlos Baerga

To be fair, Skyline Chili is from Kentucky.

Yea, exactly. Cincinnati. Kentucky.
To be fair, some - nay, many - would consider that classification an upgrade.
How about you just give us back Toledo and we call it good?
If you want Toledo, it's all yours.
Lol take Toledo, like, yesterday
Ohio can keep Toledo.
we definitely got the better of that deal. by an order of magnitude of about 1,000.
The UP may be full of Yoopers, but at least it's not full of Ohioans.
my yooper roots go back to the 1850's and our oldest two kids were born there. love yoopers and love the UP.
The real loser of the Michigan-Ohio war: Wisconsin.
Ohio gets Toledo, Michigan gets the western portion of the UP from Wisconsin.
are made in Toledo and I believe Klinger still lives in Toledo...
It's really odd that cincys airport is in Kentucky..

I just don't understand. Why not fuck gold star instead? Skyline chili is like the taco bell of chili. My stomach says no but my mouth says yes. Also, the turnpike is my friend because I can stop and get everything I need without actually feeling like I'm stopping in Ohio. It's nice.
Still, as long as you don't say fuck cedar point, we're good.
Edit: also....fuck ohio.
but must say, nicely stated.
you spelled "Colon-bus" wrong
So he went from "treated me like crap" to "treated me with a great amount of respect." Perhaps Urban Meyer greatly respects crap?
Obviously he does
He is the head coach at Ohio State.
+1
Slow clap....
He probably eats it for breakfast too
Urban Meyer and a bag of shit?
The bag.
Well, most people eat their lunch from a cooler at work...
At first I thought he was British.
same here
I thought Ohio State may have been one step ahead of us: setting up fullback camps in rugby country.... Whew that's a relief.

Stoops probably told him to apologize. Why would he say it in the first place if there wasn't some issue between him and Meyer?
Insert Hoke apology joke here.

Well....
I hate this era of public apologizes. If you said something, stand by it! Don't be so soft
Yes, please! Stand firm

i always knew urban was a made man
I'm going to go out on a crazy limb and say that the rather raw and emotional statements Young made about Meyer ring much more "real" than this typed-out PR letter that might as well have been dictated by a UK coach/rep who didn't want this to spiral out of control.
I'm sure Meyer said what he said, and it's probably 100% true that he meant it. But this really shouldn't be as big of a deal as it is.
Fuck your apology.

are you quoting when you say "misattributing"? He doesn't say he was misattributed in the tweet, he basically confirms what he said earlier??? I'm confused.
were misattributed to me.
