Urban Meyer has to be the first call

Great coach but I don't trust his playcalling at the NFL level.

He'll only be as good as his coordinators i'm affraid and he will not stick around very long either which may or may not be a bad thing.

If he's Pete Carroll then I have no problem sticking with him.
 
If I'm Urban and I get that call there are going to be specific rules agreed upon up front. I've got too strong a resume' to be subjected to Jerry and Stephen's football decisions. If they ignore those rules then there's going to be a huge buyout in the contract.

Otherwise, they can keep the job. Urban will have other opportunities if he wants them.
 
He would need more control of the team...like Bill had.

is Jerry up for that ?
 
Ohio State is my college team and I agree. Bring in the master as you fire the puppet...
 
Meyer has won and won big everywhere he's coached, I'm all for hiring him. He will bring with him top notch coaching, that's for sure, and won't have to worry about rules violations like college.

Lincoln Riley should also be considered.
 
Urban seems to rely heavily on QB option plays (risky in the NFL) and just out-running defenses to the edge on screens and sweeps with superior athletes (tough to do at the pro level). College concepts are translating easier and easier to the NFL, but I don't know if Urban's offense is one that really would. The Mike Leach system (horizontal spread with tons of picks) seems to be translating really well though.
 
You can begin marking off any Named HC’s.

Jerry won’t allow someone to come in and take all of the credit. He doesn’t want to win that bad.
 
At some point Jerry has got to stop hiring these 'yes men' and get a winner to coach, this might be Jerry's last hire before hes not making decisions anymore, he showed that he can in the past with the Parcells hire, I like the Urban Meyer idea

That's the thing about the PArcells hire though. That hire is why he's not willing to go that route again. Worked out terrible in his eyes though I Do think it changed the culture around here.
