It’s official, Urban Meyer is headed to USC. He’ll just be there as a member of the media.
On Monday, FOX tweeted out that it will be headed to Los Angeles and The Coliseum to preview Friday’s matchup between No. 10 Utah and USC. It’s a critical Pac-12 matchup, especially considering that head coach Clay Helton is sitting on the hot seat as the head coach of the Trojans.
From FOX Sports:
The full cast of BIG NOON KICKOFF, FOX Sports’ new college football pregame show, hits the road for the first time this season, heading to Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum Friday evening for No. 10 Utah at USC on FS1.
Host Rob Stone and analysts Brady Quinn, Reggie Bush, Matt Leinart and Urban Meyer present a one-hour pregame show, plus halftime and post-game coverage, from the field beginning at 8:00 PM ET. Play-by-play announcer Joe Davis, analyst Brock Huard and reporter Bruce Feldman call the action once the Trojans and Utes kick off at 9:00 PM ET.
Joe Davis, Brock Huard and Bruce Feldman will be on the call for the game.
Meyer has obviously been tied with the USC head coaching job, should Helton be fired at some point this season. Now, he’ll be in Los Angeles for a first-hand look at the environment, atmosphere and the team.
Let the rumors fly.
