Matt Campbell addresses Ohio State rumors

No mention of CMC at all.

Interesting that Stoops would be a candidate given that he has turned his head and helped cover for a few inappropriate team members himself.

Peterson may be a major douchebag...but he's not wrong here.

Well when he’s the one with the bullhorn to fuel it that isnt exactly a bold prediction. And when Meyer isn’t fired it will die. Or when Meyer is fired or resigns and the names are Bob Stoops, Mark Dantonio, Chris Petersen and David Shaw then we’ll all feel really stupid about all of this.

He did say that he thinks we know what he's all about by now, and that he's building something here. Maybe we should just relax for once? If he leaves fine, we already have an awesome team with great recruits.

Randy Pete is such garbage. I kept wanting CMC to break his other leg.

Minor edit.

I was thinking the same thing. Bringing in Stoops after the whole Joe Mixon incident wouldn't be the best PR move by OSU if they decided to split with Urban.

Stoops is an obvious top candidate for that job if it opens. That said, I truly believe Bob Stoops is done coaching forever.

I don’t get it. I love CMC but guys, Ohio State is THE program. Outside of Nick Saban, OSU could name anyone in the college game and they’d go there. Hell, they could probably pull some NFL coaches away.

This isn’t some recently up and coming program trying to pull our coach away, this is the pinnacle of college football. It’s hard for me to think their number one target is a guy that’s had one good season at a power conference school.

Also, lol at whoever said the Browns was his dream job. He could literally call them up right now and say he wants the job and they’d fire their coach and hire him. That place is a **** show.

Now, the best we can do is cheer our team on and hope Ohio State wins a national title so whoever is coach is solidified there.

I’m hoping we win it. Sorry.

I agree with you, especially the bolded part. If the job does come open, I honestly think their first call is to someone currently with a HC gig in the NFL (Vrabel), and I believe they can certainly make it more than worth his while to make the move.

 

[CyBobby]

good...now, would all you MFers who keep bringing it up let it go so we can enjoy a season of football...and if Herbshit brings it up on national tv again, I don't know what I'll do.

I just want ONE GD SEASON OF QUALITY FOOTBALL WITHOUT BEING KICKED IN THE NUTS!!!!!

That's NEVER gonna happen because this is Iowa State Football......

 

[CyBobby]

I’ll say it. I was hoping for more of a door slamming. Last time this happened he said it was disrespectful and basically said he wasn’t going anywhere. This fell quite a bit short of those comments.

When you hire coaches from the State of Ohio you have to know that if Ohio State sez: We want you....the coach whether it be Earle Bruce or Matt Campbell will come running. OSU record of Coaches FIRED....Woody Hayes...Earle Bruce....John Cooper....Jim Tressel.....and maybe Urban Meyer......Better Fasten your seatbelts......

 

[CyBobby]

Why does there need to be a "next job"..?

My answer would be Because we at ISU are just a stepping stone program to bigger and better jobs.....

 

[CyBobby]

If OSU job opens up MC is going to find out quickly how annoyingly insecure this fan base really is.

Thats funny bosco....."How Insecure this fan base is"......All you have to do to find the reason for insecurity is to look over east where they have had 2 football coaches since 1979....I hate to say it because my family went to ISU but.....The things ISU is best at is....... LOSING football games and LOSING football coaches to OSU and of course Natl Champs Auburn......

Tressel came from double A

And was an Ohio State assistant coach before that, so he had the ties.

 

[CyBobby]

Love to see a commitment or two in the next couple weeks. That will be telling.

If you're lookin' for a commitment from CMC......well good luck with that my friend, its never gonna happen in this lifetime.....

And was an Ohio State assistant coach before that, so he had the ties.

Not to mention he had won 4 national titles there and dodged an NCAA investigation involving a player being paid by boosters. He was ready for the big time.

IMO, very weak ones. Not like he was an coordinator or was there just 4-5 years prior. It was his several Natty at youngstown state that got it for him. That was more his Ohio connections to get the job. I remember his teams being quite good. I had former HS teammates that would have played against him, think I attended a game where he coached.

Well....this guy is fun! Poop or get off the pot....IT CAN HAPPEN HERE!!!!
