UPDATED 12/9

Urban Meyer has been hired as the new head football coach at The Ohio State University. Meyer has a career coaching record of 104-23, including two national championships at Florida. While the rumors of potential assistant coaches such as Mike Stoops are out there, he wasn't on our radar. If in fact he is hired as defensive coordinator, we'll certainly make some adjustments to our projections, but for now, take a look at our projected 2012 Ohio State football coaching staff:
