Two years before Meyer got fired at 1 a.m., just 13 games into his pro career, Harbaugh already knew how it would end.
He has a really great record. Harbaugh said on the The TK Show that controversy follows everywhere he has been.
The 2-11 record of Meyer with the Jags was not as good as Harbaugh had said, but he nailed the rest. At least 30 players were arrested during his tenure at Florida, and he got run out of Ohio State after he lied about being a domestic abuse enabler, as he allowed his favorite assistant coach to hit his wife. Meyer has made a number of controversial and dumb decisions.
The comedy in this situation is that even Meyer himself accurately detailed the reasons a football team struggles, only to check every box on his own list.
For a moment, let us remember Harbaugh and Meyer and the Michigan-Ohio State rivalry. Harbaugh is by far the best college coach to ever try his hand at the NFL, considering his win percentage and the fact that Michigan fans are still riding high from their win over the Buckeyes last month.
Meyer said it was time to blow it up. It is time to dig deeper and evaluate the culture. He said there was something going on.
In a few weeks, Jim Harbaugh and Michigan will be in the College Football Playoff, and Urban Meyer will be unemployed.
Who needs to dig deeper now?
Go Blue.
