I disagree on the timing. If we have any chance to keep CMC, then we need Urban to step down ASAP. The more years CMC has to build his resume here, the higher the chances that tOSU decides they must have him.
I really generally agree with this. I'm sure OSU has their eyes on CMC, but if they had to replace Meyer in January I think they want to go with someone a little more established than CMC. They can get him whenever they want.
