Urban Meyer Discusses “Glaringly Obvious” Weaknesses, Losing Austin Mack And Fixing Problems With Coordinators

Things didn't go quite as planned for Ohio State on Saturday. Purdue welcomed the Buckeyes to West Lafayette, Indiana, with a 49-20 upset to give them their first loss of the season. Three days after the defeat, Urban Meyer joined the weekly Big Ten coaches teleconference to discuss his team.

Here are some notes from what Meyer discussed on Tuesday's teleconference.

Urban Meyer, Ohio State
  • Calls Austin Mack a "big loss" and says there's "a chance" he'll be back for the bowl game. Mack had surgery yesterday.
  • Calls Mickey Marotti someone who everyone in the program counts on.
