Former Ohio State, Florida, Utah and Bowling Green head coach Urban Meyer is currently known for his role in the university football analysis on Fox Sports with Big afternoon Kickoff, plus on Big Ten Network. That led to some interesting conversations going around a spot in the Big Ten Network he did on Tuesday after postponing the fall sports conference. And, oddly enough, most of those conversations were not about everything Meyer said, but rather about the shirtless man who appeared in a mirror in his shot, and about the reaction he had (seen above) to ‘ and interloper.

That’s certainly an unusual thing to see in an interview with a former head coach and current studio analyst. And while it’s not uncommon to see unusual things on the set up of video conferencing for interviewers at this point (see Mike Vrabel’s kids or Bill Belichick’s dog), this was still a bit out of the norm. And it led to quite a funny expression from Meyer, as shown below:
And here it looked earlier in the clip:
That, that’s generally pretty funny. And it may raise some questions about why Meyer has one from Randy Trailer Park Boys or surround Bret Bielema in his shooters.
