An again anyone dismissing a university employee of having any bias toward said university is beyond naive.

You don’t have to worry about me tuning in. Enjoy it while you can.
I'll be sure and report back this fall and you can point out the huge "conflict of interest" that he presents alongside his other cast members that were part of major college football programs.

Sheesh.

As a HC he was working well over 50 hour work weeks. Probably closer to 80 when you consider recruiting trips, practice, film study, and general game prep. They all do.

The "assistant AD" tag means nothing. There are tons of "assistant" and "associate" athletic directors at OSU. It's basically just a title. Take a look.

Athletics, Department of- Departmental Listings - The Ohio State University

Ralphie is just milking this for whatever he can get. He knows he's blowing hot air at this point.

About as much hot air as you did creating this thread “taking down gameday”

Ohh I’m sure you will. You and about 500 others will have to tell the world what you witnessed.

One job is work on the weeked for 16 weeks. I have no idea on the work load for a professor. When I was in school I dealt mostly with the graduate assistant. But I have no real info on what the workload will be overall. I am guess the Assistant AD will go along with the teach and he maybe working a 40 week with those together. Maybe 50 but still less than the HC IMO.

He still has to travel, likely across the country for said job for 16 weeks or nearly a 1/3rd of a year.

I’m guessing he will be little more hands on with his teaching than a lot of other teachers. (It’s what made him a goood coach)

Assistant AD is a title. I agree with that.

I’m just saying it seems like an awful lot to be doing considering retirement from football was “health” related. Specifically a brain concern.

His issue was the stress on the field. How much will flying for one day doing a broadcast and flying home the next effect that? Not sure. Will he be more hands on, for sure.
Overall there is a significant drop in the amount of stress he will deal with on a daily basis. I cant imagine or pretend to know what stresses those coaches go through but I am sure his new choices will be much less. One could even call it life changing.

Less, sure. Much less considering how hands on and competitive he is, I don’t agree. But time will tell.

Unless he is competing to be the top instructor or something how competitive he is wont come into play.

Are you under some impression that he won’t have that in his mind?

How do you have all this inside knowledge? You know about his workload, his stress levels, his mind...

I just use common sense. Really not that hard when you don’t have a person in the fight.

you make negative assumptions when you have a person negative opinion. You say no dog but you sure have some hurt emotions or something.

No, I use common sense to make a conclusion when I see a person that has retired for “health” reasons as you mentioned from one job only to take 3 jobs in less than a 4 month time frame.

But it’s cute you can suddenly diagnose something of someone when you see them say something you don’t like.

Look how defensive you get. Nobody but you and Buckeye fans care about Meyer.
They you go with the "it's cute" assertion You have a personal gripe or her feelings or something Thats what's common sense.

Stating facts is defensive? That’s an interesting tactic.

No common sense is you don’t retire from one job only to sign up for 3 others less than 4 months later and still get to cite health as a reason the one given up happened.

Again I don’t have a dog in this fight. You do, but still you aren’t smart enough to see that.

I care about that fucking douchebag!

Seriously, CUM is generally frowned-upon by college football fans and for many good reasons. I think Fox is fucking up for going with such a non-likable figure. His anti-depressant laden personality sucks, too.

You try the personal insults when have no valid argument. Very weak.

Have a good day.

If someone prefers an average school, full of fat dumbasses in a shitty state, to America's university, it reflects upon him and not us.

Still, that wasn't my point. More than Gators find CUMstain odoriferous. He's not a good person to put out front of a new venture because his personality isn't appealing...as well as being a scumbag.

Your are not pretty enough. Just accept you are a stepping stone. It will help you out.
