The Jacksonville Jaguars shook up the football world on Thursday when they named Urban Meyer their new head coach, and some of his former players took notice. New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas was a standout on Meyer’s Ohio State Buckeyes teams, and the wideout took time to congratulate his old coach on Twitter after the Jaguars announced their new hire.
Many former Buckeyes have started their NFL careers with the Saints in recent years, all of whom were recruited by and connected to Meyer at some point.
