Urban Meyer Says This Year's Ohio State Team Might Have The Most Talented Roster OF ALL TIME

** I'm sorry, I'm sorry. There will be a time and place, I promise. But the time right now is to go out and have a glass of wine in the middle of the work day continue to do my job. Urban Meyer had a ridiculously high praising / high expectation setting quote that I just saw online, and I need to get this one up.

Let's begin this blog with a universal truth, getting everyone on the same page: Urban Meyer knows football. His reputation precedes himself, but I'll still remind you that he's 187-32 as a Head Football Coach in college, winning 3 National Championships, going 12-3 in Bowl Games, and being 7-0 against Michigan while coaching at Ohio State. The dude knows ball. So let's not take it lightly when he makes a statement like this. 

Most talented roster in the last decade????? Let me remind you of the 2017 Alabama Crimson Tide:

Jalen Hurts

Tua Tagovailoa 

Mac Jones

Josh Jacobs

Najee Harris

Calvin Ridley

Jerry Judy

DeVonta Smith

Henry Ruggs

Minka Fitzpatrick

Trevon Diggs

Jonah Williams

Jedrick Wills

Alex Leatherwood

Da’Ron Payne

Quininen Williams 

^ And Urban Meyer says Ohio State is better than this team?? Not only did he say that, he said it might be the most talented roster of ALL-TIME! Look I'm not 50 years old so I can't talk about 1986 or anything, but the 2001 Miami Hurricanes didn't have a bad team either:

  • Clinton Portis

  • Frank Gore

  • Najeh Davenport

  • Willis McGahee

  • Ken Dorsey

  • Andre Johnson

  • Kellen Winslow Jr

  • Vince Wilfork

  • Jonathan Vilma

  • Phillip Buchanon

  • Ed Reed

  • Antrel Rolle

  • Jeremy Shockey

^ And Urban Meyer says Ohio State is better than this team? Folks, it's officially No Excuses time in Columbus. I mean, I've been on record saying it's beat Michigan or be fired the next day this year for Ryan Day. We spent a billion dollars this year on our Coaching Staff, bring in 3 QBs, the best RB in the portal, keeping our entire defense, etc etc etc.  I've already declared us Transfer Portal Champions....

….but now I am declaring us MUST BECOME NATIONAL CHAMPIONS.

* I do think there's a small chance here that Urban constantly hypes up the Buckeyes because the more he does that (if we lose), the more and more the good people of Ohio beg for him to come back. He should probably chill with saying things like Best Roster of All-Time in fucking June? Couldn't be me.
