One good thing...

Did anyone listen to his PC and if so did he say why they did that?
I listened and once again he tried to gaslight the fanbase with his explanation. Part of his decision was because there was "around 8 or 9 minutes left" at the time...this is easily debunked. Nebraska scored with 10:44 remaining. There was plenty of time to get two more possessions.

I don't think so. Yes, he can coach with an abundance of talent, but it doesn't prove he could move the needle here. I would be very nervous if the administration went in this direction.
My Question is why THE Ohio State team didn't have better back up QB's in stock?

Good point Urban won a national championship with his third string qb, and yes, I know money has changed a lot of things, like just how hard it is to get, and keep, 2nd and 3rd string qbs worth having but OSU isn't just another program. He should have a good qb in his back pocket

You must have listened to more than I did because I was so sick of the uh, ah, the uh, I gave up. I don't think I got to the bit about the 8 or 9 minutes left.

You spend money to win. If he were to get fired by OSU he will be the hottest available coach to hire. I'd say if Urban Meyer expressed interest in coaching again you offer him $12 million per year for 6 years. You go big or go home.
Day is the most overrated coach on this planet. When Brian Hartline left, the whole offense went up in smoke.

I understand why Michigan is struggling. They hooked their wagon to a QB that can't play QB. And the late hire meant the help this season would be limited in terms of recruiting and the portal. tOSU has no excuse - no way they should have 3 losses.

I wonder that too. Look at UCLA. Their backup may very well be better than their starter maivia sp? Perhaps it's better preparation. Look at what the backup QB did last week for Indiana. Led 2 FG drives and the winning TD pass in OT.
NIL

I posted an article here a couple of weeks ago regarding how NIL has decimated the rosters of backups, especially QB's. Welcome to the pros... you can afford one good QB and after that? Good luck.

I haven't looked but I'm betting UCLAs backup isn't making a whole lot in NIL. Chesney is just a dang good coach.
