Urban Meyer Says He Would Accept The Michigan Head Coaching Job For $25 Million A Year
Look, everyone has their price. Even the most heinous, diabolical acts have to be considered when given a hypothetical of "how much money would it take to _____?" Or even if you don't want to get into the ridiculous examples such as killing a loved one, etc....everyone has a price for doing crazy things. For example, here are some of my prices:
- Quit my job ($1,000,000)
- Live out of a car for a year ($2,000,000)
- Make a video saying Connor Stalions did not impact last year's rivalry game and Michigan* won the National Championship fair and square ($5,000,000)
^ (If anyone wants to take me up on those, I'm like Deion Sanders....not hard to find)
And here are some of Urban Meyer's prices:
- Ruin his perfect reputation as a Head Coach by going to Jacksonville where his my way or the highway style doesn't work with Pros ($10 million per year)
- Jeopardize his marriage (1 hot blonde)
- Take the Michigan head coaching job ($25,000,000 per year)
Do I like that he said it? No, I don't. Do I think he would actually do it? No, I don't. He realized that pretty quick when he went to the never mind, just kidding motion on camera. And I think he realizes that he's 7-0 against Michigan and the most beloved living man in the state of Ohio, so there's no amount of money worth becoming the enemy. HOWEVER, if I'm a Michigan man…….my ears just perked up.
Urban Meyer to Ann Arbor to fix the wreckage that Harbaugh left behind for only $25,000,000 is a STEAL. While the jury is still out on vacating wins (I'm back on team yes, it will happen), I think it's a foregone conclusion that the program has been driven into the ground and the Buckeyes are going to hang 60+ on the Wolverines this November. And probably for the Novembers of the foreseeable future too, seeing as there will be massive postseason bans and scholarship / recruiting reductions to deal with, which is why Harbaugh "took on a new challenge in the NFL". The fact of the matter is that Michigan is a dying program and Sherrone Moore was left to deal with it, but for a mere $25,000,000 a year, that all gets flipped on it's head and Michigan would have Ohio State's prized possession: Urban Meyer.
Just saying, if I were Michigan* Man with boat loads of cash, I'd make Urban say no….
