Thanks for your usual avoid the facts and subject and reply with nonsense. You never disappoint.

I'm merely playing the entitlement card when it comes to athletic events. It is pervasive and cuts across all sports. The hook was baited and swallowed.

Why because the Big10 Champion proved anything?

I didn't think anyone from the big10 deserved to be in the playoffs. Not sure who should of been in but I didn't see much from the big10 or big12 this year as compared to previous years.

We should be more like OSU! Fire them! Fire them all!

WIN!WIN!WIN!WIN!WIN!WIN!WIN!WIN!WIN!WIN!WIN!WIN!WIN!

In today's Pittsburgh paper the Steelers beat writer said if the they don't beat the Dolphins on Sunday it will be the worst catastrophe in the history of the team. Give me a break. They are all pros out there. Where does this warped sense of entitlement come for a silly game?

I don't like arrogance in people in general, and coaches in particular. I thought that Urban Meyer's comments after the Clemson loss were in very bad taste. He aaid: "This will NOT happen again." And, he also said, "We WILL be back here next year." There were no qualifiers. That's just pure arrogance. Now, he could have said something like, "We are going to work very hard to make sure a disaster like this doesn't happen again." And, "I'm going to work my butt off to make sure we are back here again." These statements are much less arrogant. But, since we are talking about the Evil Empire, one has to expect pure, unadulterated arrogance. One also has to expect that the Walmart Alumni will eat it up.

Isn't it funny how OCF selectively used comments from that press conference. There was zero wrong with what Urban said, he took responsibility, and promised that they would get better, work hard and get back. Heaven forbid a coach shows confidence in his players and program.

Reference to coaching: Q: Urban, I know you said you want to be balanced, but I think the first half, 21 of 27 plays were called passes. And the game wasn't out of hand at that point. You didn't think you could run consistently against them?
COACH MEYER: No, I didn't realize that until you just said it. That was not the game plan. I think we kind of got taken out of the game plan a little bit. But no, that was our plan, to be balanced. We didn't follow the plan.

Coaching: Q: Coach, 2012-2013 your defense kind of got exploited a little bit. You've spoke ad infinitum about how you had to blow it up, change the culture, everything else. Are you in the same situation now after the way this season ended up with your offense?
COACH MEYER: In some regards. I'm going to take a hard look at some things when we get back, and obviously there were some great things this year, some great things.


Nothing wrong here about expectations: Q: Urban, you said at Media Day that in all honesty you thought that next year would be the year, that you were a little bit expected that development came as quickly. Now after this game do you think you were a year away?
COACH MEYER: I mean, I thought that in the beginning of the year. No, I thought we were going to go compete for the National Championship in 10 days or whatever it is. I really did.

I think we have a bunch of good players, a bunch of good guys, and our anticipation is to get back here next year and take a good swing at it and realize we've got a lot of work to do, obviously. But that comment I made was prior to the season, not today. When you said that a year away, no, shoot, I thought we were ready to go. And didn't anticipate this at all.

I'm sure we'd be upset if Coach Solich didn't have the same expectations of OHIO in getting back to our MACC and giving it our best shot when we got there.

As for Clemson, he is complimenting Watson, the D-Line and other aspects several times when asked. every coach feels like their team could have influenced the outcome had the executed better and made more plays, our own coaches makes these comments regularly.

Billy - thanks for posting - I still do not see where he takes responsibility - at no point does he say, in any way - "on me"

and he only gives gives a backhanded compliment to Clemson:

Q: Urban, what did you think about Deshaun Watson's performance tonight?
COACH MEYER: Great player.

Q: Is there any way when you see a team on film like Clemson, is there any way to know how good that defensive line will be when you see them live and how disruptive they will be until you're actually in the game? Was there any inkling that that would be --
COACH MEYER: I'm not being disrespectful of Clemson. That's a great football team. But we just didn't execute well. But we knew -- they're a very talented group.

"Great Player" no elaboration. dismissive answer.

"I'm not being disrespectful of Clemson. That's a great football team. But..."

As backhanded as you can get.

"Failure to stick to a game plan" is on the coordinator not him.

Never said anything about "on him."

Your defense/translation of what he said is like a spokesperson tying to rewrite what a candidate or president-elect said...or did not say
