CAMP HILL, Pa. (AP) — Urban Meyer created a minor stir at a news conference Friday for a high school All-Star football game between Ohio and Pennsylvania without saying a word.
Imagine what Ohio State’s new coach could do on the recruiting trail in Pennsylvania.
There’s an added twist, too, in the interstate recruiting battles: Ohio State, Penn State and Pitt each have new coaches.
Meyer, who took over after former coach Jim Tressel resigned last year amid scandal, said there might be a “little level of discomfort” over what happened in Columbus. He said the program just needs to keep fighting through and working hard on the recruiting trail.
Ten minutes late, Meyer found a seat at the news conference right next to the Big Ten’s other high-profile new hire, the Nittany Lions’ Bill O’Brien.
