The debate rages on: should Urban Meyer be hired as the new coach? Some fans are eager for a change, while others are hesitant, fearing it could be a quick downfall for the program.
Hiring Meyer: A Risky Move?
One user, Kram Oinotnad, argues that bringing Meyer on board could be more detrimental than sticking with the current coach, Smith. They believe Meyer, now older and perhaps less energetic, would be a shadow of his former self. And if he were to fail, the narrative would be devastating: "Even the legendary Urban Meyer couldn't turn MSU around!"
But here's where it gets controversial...
The Search for the Next Big Thing
Instead, the focus should be on finding a young, ambitious coach with a bright future ahead. Think of a 40-something Urban Meyer - full of energy and ready to make a name for themselves. This is the approach that could truly revitalize the program.
Urban's Interest and the Fanbase's Reaction
There's buzz that Urban Meyer is interested in coaching MSU, and some fans are excited, while others are skeptical or even opposed. One user, Heinrich, shares a funny story about Meyer's apparent enthusiasm, claiming he bought a Peacock subscription to watch the game and even practiced coaching in an MSU windbreaker!
However, not everyone is on board. Some fans express strong dislike for Meyer, with one user going as far as calling him an "a$$hole" and saying there's no chance he'll become the head coach.
The Search for a New Coach Continues
With the current coach's performance under scrutiny, the search for a new leader is on. Some fans suggest tracking private jets, while others propose raising flags or even printing flags with motivational messages. One user, Ishbia, hints at having financial paperwork ready, perhaps for a big-name hire.
The thread also suggests the possibility of Brian Kelly becoming available, but there's a divide on whether he's the right fit.
Your Thoughts?
What do you think about hiring Urban Meyer? Is it a risky move or a fresh start? Should the team aim for a younger, hungrier coach? We'd love to hear your opinions in the comments!
Remember, it's all about finding the right fit to take the program to new heights.
