Urban Meyer fighting words

Thought the board might need some cheering up. This picture was recently published on USA Today's website. It is reportedly hanging in the Ohio State locker room, put there by Urban Meyer to show that his players apparently take academics more seriously than their foes in Ann Arbor.
Now, I'm not sure that showing pride in having 7 "Sports & Leisure" majors and 10 "Family Resource Management" majors is worthy of a professionally printed poster, but I guess 7 bio majors is pretty impressive. Anyway, thought you all would enjoy this.

Curious why only 59 OSU players and 45 Michigan players were included.
I'm going to guess that walk-ons factor in here a little more significantly.

If the urban liar was concerned about an educational institution, he wouldn't have taken the job with the tattooed thugs. He falls in line with Gee and Smith and worse than Tressel.

He has not even been there a year and I'm already tired of his act. How long until he decides his family should be his #1 priority again... Quits, then spends the whole year working at ESPN, not with his family. Only to return to coaching the next season. Stand up guy...

That's the course where they watch the movie "Patton" every day for an entire semester.

They must be undecided.

Seriously, Urban? Eight years ago you chose Florida over Notre Dame and you have the balls to try to play the academic card?

I'd like to see Meyer's UF teams compared to the Michigan one he's dogging.
And then we could compare arrest records, with bulletin points for felonies and multiple offenses.
Ugh. I just pseudo-defended Michigan.... I need a shower.

He's just trying to stir up some SEC type drama in the BIG 10. Throwing darts at Wisconsin and Michigan......there will most certainly be more.
This type of stuff happens every week in the SEC. It amps up the rivalries a little bit.

It does not matter what your team "studies" if they don't graduate!

The thing of it is, BOTH of those programs are a joke if you held Urban's sign up against what ND football players are doing in the classroom.
Even more, regardless of the leverage ND has on OSU and UM in terms of taking education seriously, you would never see Brian Kelly or anyone at Notre Dame put up such a sign.
The more I see of Urban, the more I'm hoping Michigan beats OSU. And yes, that made me throw up in my mouth a little bit.

I DARE Meyer to hang a similar poster comparing tOSU players' majors to those of "The team to the west" ( i.e. ND, if course). And if he actually posts the relative graduation rates as well, I'll really be impressed. But I won't hold my breath waiting to see it.
