He said he took what he learned at OSU and applied it towards improving his game once he landed at LSU, and then learned from the coaches there. To criticize Meyer over that decision is crazy. If Joe stays at OSU, he may have never developed into who he is.
Hindsight is 20/20. I will say, Urban doesn't have the best track record developing QBs that can transition from College to the Pros. I would argue the most successful QB he put into the pro's was Alex Smith, but even then it took Alex Smith about 6 years to become a good NFL QB. That said, Urban produced plenty of other skill position players that had great success in the NFL. I don't like the guy, but I do appreciate his career in college. I probably should state I went to college at UK and worked for the football team during Urban's time at Florida, so I'mma lil bias lol.
