Former Ohio State football coach Urban Meyer is joining the board of a nonprofit that will pay Buckeyes football and basketball players to work with charities.
Meyer will serve on the board of THE Foundation, an organization co-founded by Brian Schottenstein, a Columbus real estate developer and Ohio State booster, and Cardale Jones, the former national championship-winning quarterback for the Buckeyes. It launches at the end of this month.
“There isn’t a better person to have on the board than Coach Urban Meyer,” Schottenstein said. “It goes without saying that he’s one of the greatest recruiters of student-athletes and coaches of all time. I appreciate his support and friendship.”
Definitely a go-to guy for mentoring. Maybe they can bring in Zach Smith while they’re at it and get the band back together.

THE Foundation is THE dumbest name I’ve ever heard.
I’m sure the first thing they will be doing is holding sessions on the proper treatment of women.

And the scrubdown of Urban’s rep begins. Just in time for him to be announced as Auburn’s new head coach on November 29.

Urban won’t go somewhere like Auburn where he has to play a lot of tough competition. Clemson is the perfect fit.

Clemson isn’t nearly dirty enough for Urban Meyer. Auburn has everything he’d ever want in terms of culture, they just don’t have the players. If Harsin ever manages to put together a roster, watch for Urban to pop up.

He’s not going to Clemson because he doesn’t fit their culture and he’s not going to Auburn because he doesn’t want to play tough competition.

I mean, from 10,000 feet away, this seems fine and noble and a good idea, but because it’s Urban, it’ll most certainly be a front for all sorts of malfeasance that he and his baffling supporters will scrub all mention of in a year or so.
