COLUMBUS, Ohio — Friday didn't mark the first time Urban Meyer stated Braxton Miller would be back at Ohio State for the 2015 season.
But it did mark the first time the Buckeyes head coach did so adamantly, without attaching a qualifier to his proclamation.
Ever since J.T. Barrett emerged—and Cardale Jones after him—in Miller's absence during Ohio State's run to the national championship, rumors have swirled that Miller would use his ability as a graduate transfer to spend the final season of his college career somewhere else. During a press conference promoting OSU's "Real Life Wednesdays" program on Friday, Meyer took his biggest step toward squashing the speculation.
