Last year and for the several years prior to that, Urban Meyer was doing big things at Ohio State. He even won a national championship with the Buckeyes.

On Friday, he joined Fox’s Colin Cowherd on his show, The Herd. Cowherd asked Meyer about Jim Harbaugh at the end of the clip below, but probably more notably, Meyer talked about what the Dallas Cowboys job means.
He knows, as does most of America, that the Cowboys job is the special one in the NFL. Would Meyer have taken the job if he was asked about it? Jason Garrett, Dallas’ head coach, is seemingly always on the hot seat.
And, would Oklahoma head coach Lincoln Riley jump from the Sooners to coach the Cowboys?

It sounds as though Meyer would have certainly given a thought to coaching the Cowboys even when he was at Ohio State.
