Not only that, but look at it this way -- he can either replace Luke Fickell, or he can replace Joe Paterno. One of them is a legendary coach, the other one is a failure, even as a stopgap. I know Urban Meyer is a legendary coach in his own right -- he owns the highest winning percentage among coaches with at least 5 seasons (.842) -- but JoePa is such a beloved figure at Penn State that I'm not sure they would immediately warm up to the guy. The Buckeyes, on the other hand, are in need of a savior, and Meyer could be that for this team. If it takes getting rid of that God awful Gene Smith, then I really hope he gets the ax. Even if Meyer doesn't come here... I still hope he gets canned.
