Zipgrad01 Posted July 13, 2014 Author Report Posted July 13, 2014 I am not offended by his tweet, I just think it was pompous. Quote
Buckzip Posted July 13, 2014 Report Posted July 13, 2014 I think Meyer is pretty arrogant, but what makes it pompous?I am surprised Zip fans are LBJ fans. He is the epitome of the locals not being Zip fans. He is a big OSU fan. He has led the team out of the tunnel and gave a speech at halftime of a game. He appears at many OSU games and even has a locker with his name on it. He has public ally stated if he went to college it would be OSU. I think Bowden and Akron need to reach out more to him. Quote
Dave in Green Posted July 14, 2014 Report Posted July 14, 2014 We shouldn't be surprised by LeBron supporting all things Ohio and being claimed by all. No one in Ohio has an exclusive on him. His relationships with various parts of Ohio are all a little different. The one with tOSU is scripted to be highly visible. Every time he shows up there it's highly publicized with cameras whirring and clicking. The locker with his name on it that he never has a real need to use is just part of the tOSU/Nike marketing program. Urban Meyer and Thad Matta are just two of many who want a piece of him. Who wouldn't?Whatever claim anyone else in Ohio may make on LeBron, Akron is home. The JAR is where he played many of his HS games. Keith Dambrot helped turn an aspiring young football player into a basketball legend. When LeBron shows up unannounced at the JAR to scrimmage with the Zips, there are no cameras and no publicity flaks to orchestrate media coverage. It's just LeBron being LeBron in private in a place and with people he's comfortable being around. No one at UA needs to reach out to LeBron. UA is part of his home. He may have left the Cavaliers for four years, but he never left home. 2 Quote
