Great coach when his heart's in it. But how much heart does he have left? Being a HC of an NCAA program has got to be a tough job now-a-days. The pressure to succeed is immense. Plus, coaching 19-year-olds is like herding cats. I'm not too sure he's at OSU for his entire contract.

I don't think he'll be overly successful. He wins big when he has a once in a generation type player, but who doesn't right? Good coaches find ways to win even when they don't have those kind of people. 2009 showed that it's not a guarantee he can do that.

I think he's flakey. The SEC meat grinder wore him down. Took a easier gig in the Big slow. Where he could suck for a few years and they'll still think they got someone great. I think he's effectively a hasbeen . Enjoy Ohio State.

I'm not going to doubt him. He knows how to use speed, and if he can get the right players I think he will win.

If the NCAA has any smarts whatsoever he'll start in 2012 with at least a one-year postseason ban. I think he'll win, but OSU regressed so violently this year it may take some time.

I think he is a big puss.

Urban should pay attention to Early Cuyler's tips to prevent bullying

I don't think he's going to be able to get the speedy players he got at UF. Not even close. I don't see him doing well. 8-9 wins per season for about 3 years, then he's "tired" or sick again. No BCS title, maybe a big 10 title. Maybe.

As before, he'll be good if he has good assistants.

That said, it won't even take someone of the Mullen/Strong caliber to be a good assistant in the pathetic big 10.
