Urban Meyer says he might pull a "Jim Harbaugh" and hold spring practices in Florida next year

Bitter that he's not there, yes. Bitter about the fake "health issues," yes. Bitter about the program now vs. then, yes. Attributing much of the UF success under Meyer to Tebow, yes. And many of the UF fans I know do not like osu (compared to respecting Michigan) so that adds to the dynamic.

39-25 since Herbs (.609) vs 65-15 (.813) isn't "shambles" per se, but things have been significantly worse since he left ...for health reasons, went to ESPNsucks a year and re-appeared in his "dream job."

Yeah ...bitter

If any program had, setting next to all their other important documents with a clearance level of at least Confidental, I would think it would be OSU with a copy of "accepted answers" covering any number of questions, all pertaining to acting outside NCAA bylaws. I don't know to what extent Urb engages in known infractions, Honestly, I hope he doesn't, but he is at OSU and he did come from SEC. I don't buy into Kiffen's remark, "If you aren't cheating, you aren't trying," but I would believe, "If you aren't cheating, you are in the second division."

I recall a member of the wolverine, when I was a subscriber to that dinosaur, had documentation on every "known" Tressel transgression. To say it was lengthy would have hinted at it possibly ending, but I know it was, at minimum, over a page long of merely the list, and that would be with standard 81/2 x 11" paper. When I wrote, "merely the list," it was just the name of violation, date of occurrence, etc., without detailing the entire incident. To do something of that nature would have required a ream of paper and a whole hell of a lot of hours.

This has oviously grown out of control in far too many conferences. When Gary Patterson was questioned about a possible violation at TCU, one would have thought a denial, or an explanation of the "misunderstanding" would have been the way to go. Without hesitation, he replied, "You should see the things that are going on down at Baylor.":  That is not a good answer, no matter how you try to explain it.

If any coach in the U.S. has a problem with Harbaugh ,and many of them do. If they aren't running a clean program, the last thing I would want to do is call attention to my program by even suggesting Jim is acting outside the rules. In no way is cheating by other programs near the top of Harbaugh's list of priorities. However, if you are bending those rules and attempt to paint Harbaugh with the same brush, don't start bitching when the NCAA comes a calling. He might, and probably is, aware of certain programs where cheating is a very real part of their overall strategy. Although he certainly doesn't condone or endorse it in any manner, he is not going to waste time by concentrating on another's porogram. However,  I don't think he would hesitate to blow the whistle on a program that he knew was dirty and suggested he was of the same character.

Harbaugh takes great pride in winning within the rules, and as we are all aware of by now, he really doesn't give a shit about what others - even his own fan base - might think of his unique approach. But if you are a coach of a program and are worried about Harbaugh closing the gap on you, I can think of no other way of motivating him to do it faster than knowingly accuse him of something you know has no merit. The man's character is only matched by his competive nature and pride.
