Urban Meyer confirms what everyone already knew about OSU, LSU jobs

The totally absurd notion Urban Meyer might leave Ohio State for LSU can officially be put to bed.

Meyer told reporters on the Big Ten coaches teleconference he has not been contacted by Tiger representatives and will continue coaching the Buckeyes.

In case you missed it, Meyer's name was mentioned in a FootballScoop.com story about the approach LSU will take to replace Les Miles after he was fired Sunday.

The story didn’t so much indicate Meyer or Bob Stoops or Jimbo Fisher – all national championship-winning coaches – would be offered the job as it explained that is the type of coach that would be targeted.

It caught fire, though, and spread across the internet.

Until Meyer put it out today.
