Urban Meyer has been straightforward in his desire to return to TV as a college football analyst since his unsuccessful and tumultuous year in charge of the Jaguars. When he initially retired from coaching in 2018, he joined the Fox as a college football analyst.
Two days ago, in an interview on The Tim May Podcast, Meyer left the door open for a possible return to the network in role similar to one he was doing previously. Because of a recent change in job from a Fox counterpart, Meyer’s wish could be on the brink of coming true.
On Wednesday, longtime Sooners coach Bob Stoops was named as one of the eight head coaches leading franchises in the XFL that will restart in 2023. Stoops’s coaching duties limit him from working with Fox as it is a direct layer of competition between XFL and the network, which will be televising all USFL football games.
