As he should be. Jake Ballard is an athletic freak we never utilized. Stoney is almost the same. Ubran utilized well and they got drafted and didn't have to do it like Ballard did.

With the lack of highlight tape available for our offense I doubt anyone will leave early, but that is a good indication he will be back and is good to hear. I am only worried about John Simon coming back. His personallity and Urban's personallity should go together well. Other than that we don't have anyone that will go in the first 3 rounds that are eliglible to leave.

Basketball guys get drafted to be TEs, Stoney would be a 3rd or 4th rounder at worst next year.

I think I like that move. Go ahead and let Fickell coach his last game as a head coach and with his seniors and let Urban hit the recruting trail and work the phones. Any word on who is going to be the OC?

About 5 years ago you can say Urban was mosted hated by Buckeye fans and loved by Gators. Now in 2011 he is loved by Buckeyes and hated by Gators lol.

I think it's mainly used as a figurative term, not a literal one :thumbup:

After Meyer left Florida he found out his health issues weren't heart related, they were sever indigestion issues.

His draft stock should should make a significant improvement after one year in Meyer's offense.

@STONEYeleven Jake Stoneburner
Welcome Coach Meyer to THE Ohio State University. To say I'm excited is an understatement. #gobucks

New rumor is Clemson's OC Chad Morris being courted by Urban as next OC.

Actual physical problems (like esophageal issues) and anxiety aren't mutually exclusive. I'm absolutely sure that most people on here who ever experienced a severe esophageal spasm might easily assume it's a heart attack and have anxiety problems, at least for a short time after.

I saw my father go through something similar, and the doctors said it wasn't uncommon for that fear to take control for a while. Usually with time and some mild meds, it goes away.

The anxiety proceeded everything from what Bruce said (had dinner with Meyer the night before the Alabama game). Indigestion may have been why he went to the hospital, but he retired due to anxiety.

6 years @ 24 million. Big drop from the rumored contract.
