Ohio State’s Urban Meyer: No desire to coach in the NFL – for now

After winning his third national title, Ohio State coach Urban Meyer says he has no desire to coach in the NFL – for now. When asked Tuesday if he would consider moving to the pros, Meyer said, “Not right now. I’ve got a commitment to Ohio State and these players. I love what I’m doing. Not right now.” Also Tuesday, OSU quarterback Cardale Jones stated he is not ready to make the leap to the NFL. “In my personal opinion, I’m not ready for that level yet,” the 22-year-old third-year sophomore said. In just his third career start, Jones was 16 for 23 in Monday’s championship game, for 242 yards with a TD pass and a TD run to help the Buckeyes beat Oregon. – Associated Press
