Urban Meyer will become an assistant athletic director at Ohio State after he retires as coach, athletic director Gene Smith told The Columbus Dispatch on Saturday.  

AND

He will co-teach a course titled "Leadership and Character" in Ohio State's Fisher College of Business.

They wanted Jeffrey Dahmer to teach a class on "cooking with exoctic foods" but he's dead.

Urban got the job only when Charlie Manson turned it down, said” I can’t ethically work for such a place that is not aligned with my personal morality “.

We are not in any position to be talking about this. We had a fair share and very long long road of our own.  We are not sure what the future holds or what information comes next.

I will speak for me as you are speaking for yourself but in my opinion, Ohio State is putting lipstick on a pig. The school is trying to deflect on his indiscretions by appointing him to these positions, all the while it can’t help but to support their recruiting.

Based on what??  Your opinion?  You've been taking shots at PSU every chance you get since the JS mess.  Don't take the moral high groundcrap with us. We aint buying what you're selling.

Keep swinging Suzie.

Nope. He signs the checks.

I'll bite at the troll bait.

First, I am not sure what you mean by "we."  Do you mean Rutgers?  If for some reason you mean Penn State could you please elaborate on why Penn State is not in a position to be talking about this? Did Penn State not fire the head coach?  

I mean Ohio State is giving Meyer a job teaching young impressionable minds a class about the exact thing he was suspended for NOT doing. 

Maybe the old saying is right.

Those that can't do... Teach.

One imagines a pop quiz might look something like this …

1. When at least 25 workers under you are arrested or charged during your six years in a previous job, this is an example of:

A. Character.

B. Leadership.

C. Who cares? The Florida Gators won two national titles in their six seasons under Meyer.

2. Leadership commands respect rather than demanding it. Character is evident when you:

A. Instill values in your organization by demonstrating them every day.

B. Always do what’s best for the organization, even at a personal cost.

C. Beat Michigan.

3. When a member of your staff behaves erratically and police are investigating him for domestic violence, the correct response is to:

A. Take your own boss’ advice and remove the underling from your staff.

B. Convince the underling to resign for his own sake and that of the organization.

C. Continue awarding the underling excellent performance reviews and big raises.

4. A bold and dynamic leader always:

A. Solicits input from others and builds consensus.

B. Inspires and convinces others to follow his strategy despite concerns they voice.

C. Goes for it on fourth-and-inches.

5. When asked what you know about an underling’s misdeeds and when you first learned of them, you should:

A. Always tell the truth.

B. Always be transparent.

CGive a misleading answer and later say you were confused by the question and/or unprepared to answer it.

6. The epitome of a leader with character would be:

A. President Abraham Lincoln.

B. Tennessee basketball coach Pat Summitt.

CWhoever is grading this quiz.
