There are plenty of people who have been critical of the Ohio State fan base for being too negative and going too far when the Buckeyes struggle. Former Ohio State coach and current Fox Sports college football analyst Urban Meyer recently defended Buckeyes fans from the backlash they have received.

The Ohio State Buckeyes have had quite a few great head coaches throughout the history of their program. One of the best was Urban Meyer. Meyer ended up compiling an impressive 83-9 overall record and he went 54-4 within the Big Ten conference.

Meyer becomes the eighth coach from Ohio State to be voted into the College Football Hall of Fame joining other Buckeye greats Howard Jones (1910), John Wilce (1913-28), Francis Schmidt (1934-40), Woody Hayes (1951-78), Earle Bruce (1979-87), John Cooper (1988-2000) and Jim Tressel (2001-10).
