VIDEO: Urban Meyer looking into copying Jim Harbaugh’s idea
Published:
Mark Dantonio already said that if allowed to have spring practices in the south, he’d try to do it.
Add Urban Meyer to that camp.
The Ohio State coach was at Tim Tebow’s Celebrity Golf Classic, where he was asked about whether or not he would consider relocating spring practices as Jim Harbaugh did with Michigan this year.
To that question, Meyer had this to say:

So yeah, that marks another coach B1G East coach calling Harbaugh’s idea “creative.” This is coming from the same coach who made a student do pushups for wearing blue to class.
Meyer didn’t address Harbaugh or Michigan by name, but it’s still a bit surprising to see him give the idea credit.
There’s also the fact that Meyer is already a target for SEC folk. After these comments, that target will certainly get even bigger.
