Another day, another comment from former Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer on Michigan football. Since leaving Ohio State, there have been multiple times where Meyer has talked about the Wolverines and last week there is a new comment from the former coach.

Meyer was on The Herd last Saturday, and he had some things to say on the team itself and he tried to instill some positivity into his arch-rivals fanbase by trying to calm the nerves about the new offense run by offensive coordinator Josh Gattis.

“We said this in the preseason that when you change offenses, and from my understanding when I watch them, it’s a drastic change,” said Meyer. “It takes a minute to get going. Yea it’s been very disappointing, and Shea Patterson, the one fumble was inexcusable however the other one was a responsibility of the tailback he was stripped from behind. Don’t give up on this offense. If Donovan Peoples-Jones gets back, that’s another big-time weapon, but they gotta start doing what they said they were going to do and that’s playing space and they’re not doing that yet.”

Cowherd then asked Meyer if he feels like head coach Jim Harbaugh needs to lighten and loosen up the offense by being more creative, and Meyer had an interesting response.

“Yea, I don’t know, it’s him,” said Meyer. “Obviously, it’s his program and the way the game unfolded last week, it was a bunch of runs right in a row. You’re talking about a complete talent mismatch in the perimeter. I kept waiting, I think like a lot of the fans are, get the ball out there, let these athletes go against Army athlete in the back-end. I mean it’s just obvious that Army doesn’t have the same athletes as they have. It got very conservative. I heard comments about wanting to bleed the clock, etc. If they wanna play athletes in space they gotta start doing that because they do have the athletes.”

Michigan will look to showcase to the country that their offense is just fine as they are coming off the bye week to take on No. 13 Wisconsin team in Camp Randall Stadium, a place Michigan hasn’t won at since 2001. Kickoff is at noon EST on Saturday on FOX.
