Would rather have a prepared, sharp coach who loves himself than a coach who is clearly in over his head, despite his generally-accepted status as a "good guy."
This. I think we need an arrogant coach for an arrogant fan base.

I don't understand this ego angle people are attacking Urb with. As a fan, why would you care if the guy has an ego? You arn't dealing with him on a day to day basis. All I care about is if the players like him and play hard for him.....and they win.

Expectations and Arrogance of the Fanbase > any ego that Urban Meyer might have. The OSU fanbase won't tolerate his ego if winning isn't accompanied by it.
