Wouldn't shock me if Urbz got his jock on one last time.But Life in the booth is just easy money comparatively
No doubt about it.

I don't know anything about him, you all know his history and personality way better than I do.

From what I hear, he and his family are very concerned over his health and taking a high pressure coaching job is certainly not going to help in that department.

If he goes anywhere, and to me that's a big if, I think it would be USC.

Supposedly The University of Spoiled Children' President/BOTs didn't like the way things unfolded in C-Bus.After some questionable hires themselves are looking to right the ship from snippets I've read.But that was on a Buckeye Board so who knows

I heard similar but it's just internet gossip.

I don't even recall how/why he left coaching at tOSU?  The silly tattoo thing was Tressel right?  I really have no recollection of how things went down for Urban a couple years back, but admittedly I don't follow B1G coaching drama very closely (or, at all).

Well Earle Bruce's son in law Zack Smith was on the staff for quite some time both in FLA and C-Bus.Well Zack's behavior personally/professionally seemed to most conduct unbecoming.And Urbz didn't appear real vigilant in matters.Well when Ubrz was questioned by Brett McMurphy about strange going ons right before BIG Media Days in 2018 URBZ dismissed it wholesale rather than "No comment" or directing it to the AD.

  So it appeared the Program let the asst coach run wild as long as they won.IMO Urbz should have nipped it in the bud a while ago rather than let it fester.It was kind of a hit piece by McMurphy but not with out some merit.It gave the appearance of the Captain running a loose ship.And by sweeping things under the rug to save face made it appear worse than than things actuually were.People started concocting many juicy yarns

Ah okay.  I know of Zach Smith's history, from his feud with Tom Herman.  But I didn't remember his abusive behavior as part of the reason Meyer was pushed aside.

Well the things is Zack's wife turned out to be crazier than him.Ya had to feel for the kids.One time she set him up(after seperation/divorce) he had to abide by court order and he showed up to picked the kids up when and where he wasn't suppose to be but she said it was OK - then called the cops.Another time he tried to leave the house and his ex stood in the doorway not letting him leave.So he shoved her aside to leave, she calls the cops and said he got physical.Strange thing was Zack's MIL took his side in some of this.Both were fine examples of bad examples and one has to wish the kids the best

Yup, you can't help but feel for the kids, when the parents are acting like infants themselves.  I hope they can somehow find a safe and nurturing environment.

MY bad Zack was Earle Bruce's grand son not SIL,supposedly this was why Zack got such a long leash.Urban was a grad assistant on Earle's staff sometime in the'80s.It was still on Urbz to reign it in a bit.Things were stirred up and Urbz's dayz in C-Bus were numbered I believe

I think he ultimately resigned due to health. There were times on the sideline where he looked terrible.

That could be but the off field bombast didn't help things along and prolly brought on conditions.

my low compression Chevy's run just fine on low octane corn juice

beer is meant to be poured into a glass, so bottle or can it shouldn't matter if the bottles don't sit in the warm sun too long.

an extra 10 million would go a long way to pay medical bills if Urban's stress level got a bit too high in Austin
