PHOTOS: Rally for Urban Meyer looks more like a depressing College GameDay

The rally for Urban Meyer is underway at Ohio Stadium, and a few fans showed up.
Meyer, who’s currently on paid administrative leave, will know his fate within the next two weeks, according to a statement released by the university Sunday night.
Interestingly, ESPN analyst Paul Finebaum thinks “it’s pretty obvious” what’s going on at Ohio State right now, and ultimately, Finebaum thinks Meyer returns. Finebaum says only Meyer and Nick Saban could come back from a debacle like this.
Plans for an Urban Meyer rally came to light Saturday, as Jeff Hamms, known as Tennessee Jeff in OSU fan communities, had the original idea.
“A peaceful rally at Ohio State University for Coach Urban Meyer just because I thought, I was thinking there’s been so much negative press with Coach Meyer,” Hamms said on his Facebook page.
Below are all the sights and sounds from Ohio Stadium, and be sure to read all the signs. And, yes, that’s “Tennessee Jeff” leading the chants.

As this fan told me, coming out an hour early in 90° heat on a Monday: “If it’s to support @OSUCoachMeyer, I’ll do just about anything.” pic.twitter.com/Aum1uTAh5p
