I made the mistake of listening to sports radio -- again.

   And the host was promising that there really was something to "his" rumor that if the Gators beat Oklahoma, Urban Meyer would leave to become the new head coach of the Denver Broncos.

   My God...they let anybody on radio these days.

   But I will say this...even though Meyer has Florida rolling like no other program in college football, there are two schools that would turn Meyer's head.

   One job...Notre Dame.  When Charlie Weis finally does self-destruct, the Irish would be stupid not to pull out all the stops to get Meyer.  Even though Meyer said no thanks the last time around, Notre Dame is close to having the facilities to grab Meyer's attention.  The challenge might interest Meyer.

   But if Ohio State ever comes open...look out!!

   Meyer is from Ohio.  Meyer is a former OSU assistant.  Meyer's eyes light up when anybody talks about Ohio State. 

   That is the only job that would lure Meyer away from Gainesville.

   And it makes you wonder how much rope Buckeye fans are willing to give Jim Tressel.  Yes, he's 83-20.  Yes, he's taken OSU to 3 national title games.  But he has led the Buckeyes to only one championship.  Tressel has lost his last 3 bowl games.  Is that good enough for the Buckeye Nation?

   These days, even  Jim Tressel can feel the heat.  A loss to Michigan could turn that nuclear.  When will the Buckeye Nation cast an eye to Meyer?

   It has all the makings of an Urban Legend.
