According to an unconfirmed report on Twitter, Urban Meyer went out of his way to slam Michigan coaches for their poor record, lack of coaching ability and unwillingness to trust players they inherited when arriving in Ann Arbor in 2011.
Meyer hosted a group of 2015 recruits that are considering both Michigan and Ohio State this weekend. The recruits who listened to Meyer speak on the difference between the coaching staffs at OSU and Michigan were:
Justin Hilliard, 4-star LB, #49 overall player in 2015
Damien Harris, 5-star LB, #4 overall player in 2015 (former Michigan commit)
Jashon Cornell, 4-star DE, #76 overall player in 2015
In the meeting, Meyer hammered the Michigan coaching staff for going 7-6 with players that have the same talent as the Buckeyes players he coached to a 24-0 record in his first two seasons at Ohio State.
Following 10 minutes of slamming the Wolverines, Meyer played an 8-minute highlight video of Buckeyes glory against Michigan.
According to the report on Twitter, the players were 'eating it up', and Meyer was very good at delivering the message on why they should choose Ohio State over Michigan:
