WATCH: Urban Meyer looks ready to spend more time with his family as he commits to his future at Ohio State
Urban Meyer met with the media on Monday. He was asked about rumors that he might retire after this season.
He answered, “”I plan on coaching,” to the initial question about retirement. On a follow-up, he was pressed to commit to saying he would be at Ohio State next season. He offered a “yes.”
If one only read the transcript, they might come away thinking Meyer had brushed off the rumors. His body language, as shown in the video below, told a completely different story. While he verbally committed to OSU, he looked more like a coach wanting to spend more time with his family.
Watch the exchange in the video below:
