Ohio State Football: Could Northwestern hire Urban Meyer?

The Ohio State football program had to part ways with Urban Meyer after the 2018 season. He said he was retiring because of health-related issues, yet he coached for the Jacksonville Jaguars just a few years later. It was really because of his mishandling of the Zach Smith situation.

Northwestern is facing a similar predicament now. They just went ahead and fired Pat Fitzgerald after hazing issues within their football program. The Wildcats have already hired an interim head coach for the upcoming season because it’s too late to hire someone from the outside.
