The Ohio State Board of Trustees have been discussing the fate of Urban Meyer since 9 a.m. on Wednesday morning. And with no decision made by 4 p.m. that same afternoon, a few Buckeye fans decided to make their presence known.
“Tennessee Jeff,” the native of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina and organizer of the rally in support of Meyer a few weeks ago, was seen setting up his lawn chair outside where the Board of Trustees were holding their meeting.
He was one of a handful of fans who showed up to show support for the Ohio State head coach.
Update: This is where we are. Fans have shown up. With lawn chairs. And the media is talking to them because there’s no information. We’re nearing the seven hour mark. Urban has been in the building for almost six hours. pic.twitter.com/MY4ueLQeVn

No, it wasn’t a large gathering at the time, but if the meeting continues, more Ohio State fans could show up outside the building.
The decision on Meyer’s future was expected to be made sometime Wednesday but numerous reports have stated that there may not be a final decision until later.
