Happy for the team, hate it for him. The dude has enough stress. Hopefully this means he realizes the two bozos he has calling plays aren't going to hack it and we will see a change for next season.

I think that's already in the cards. Remember when Urban "got more involved" with the defense when Fickell and Withers were co-defensive coordinators? Withers was gone at the end of that season. I think when Urban has to "get more involved" with any of the 9 units, someone is about to get a pink slip!

Agreed,,,, And anyone saying tOSU and Buckeye Nation are overreacting from 1 loss are fans of schools that only get to the top 5 ish every 10 years or so. Zeek was spot on, timing kinda sucked but spot on !

Exactly. I posted something a couple of weeks ago stating why I was not that excited about this team's performance despite being undefeated up to that point. Basically, my point was they were grossly underperforming and it would catch up to them just as it caught up to FSU in embarrassing fashion last year. My feelings remain the same about this team after the loss as they were before it. It is an amazingly talented team that is not playing to its potential. I've lamented for weeks (specifically when Cardale was QB) that our play calling was terrible and holding us back. So, anyone who feels we are being unreasonable and spoiled for calling for a change at O coordinator after "1 loss" apparently just tuned in as many have been calling for it for awhile. You don't hook a Lamborghini up to a mule and then pat yourself on the back for the fact you got that car moving forward. No, you unleash that beast and let those in its path lie in the wake of its destruction.

Yeah, I've had a sneaking suspicion all season that Meyer actually meant what he said about his whole contract with his family stuff and has been trying to stay out of directly controlling the offense and delegating it to his coaches. I just hope he doesn't take the wrong lesson from this and decide to be more hands on over the next season and end up stressing himself out. A head coach should just be the head coach. His only error here has been letting this go on as long as it did until finally dropping a game. I'd have to think he could have at least stepped in and taken over during the MSU game and called the plays in the second half.

Meyer talked about this on Mike & Mike. When he said all that, it wasn't about during the season. During the season he has a job and can't take time off. He said the offseason is what he was talking about. At Florida, he would still be non stop during the offseason, doing interview, coaching things, etc. Now at tOSU, when the season is over, he makes sure he has family time. He goes to all his son games, daughter games, have family nights, etc. He doesn't travel in the offseason to do teaching lessons, etc. He spends it with his family.

But when the season is on, he is focused, and his time goes to coaching and putting Ohio State in the best position to win.

I think all his focus right now and during the season is to take each week as it comes, win that week's game, and not step on the assistant coaches' toes. He already has a tendency to micro-manage that he fights all the time. He believes that he has hired the best people available around him and tries to let them do their jobs. If they don't, and he has to step in, they won't be around long. For the most part, that management philosophy has been very successful for him. In this case, he fucked up and he knows it. There will big changes, but not this week or in the season. Once that's over, all this will shake out very quickly. Beck will be gone and Warriner may be too.
