Live Updates from the Oct. 27 Urban Meyer Call-In Show
Urban Meyer Updates
+ Eli Apple was struggling after his redshirt freshman year. He was thinking of quitting, Meyer wouldn't have been upset if he did. The academics were struggling. Then they found out that he had an iron deficiency and then he took off and won a championship and was a first-round pick.
+ Eli Apple is on campus this week because the Giants are on a bye week. It's always great to see players come back. They could be doing anything and they come back home to the team.

Eli Apple: Giants are not pressuring me to silence Mom's opinions
The mother of New York Giants first-round pick Eli Apple has put her son in a "little awkward" situation, Apple said Thursday.
This is the result of Annie Apple's outspoken nature in her Sports Illustrated columns and presence in mainstream media. Annie Apple also works for ESPN as a contributor to Sunday NFL Countdown.
She has written in recent weeks about the Josh Brown situation, as more details became public about the former Giants kicker's 2015 domestic violence arrest. Annie Apple wrote about her personal experiences with domestic violence, and she criticized Giants co-owner John Mara for comments he made.
In her most recent Sports Illustrated column, posted late in the afternoon on Wednesday, Annie Apple wrote about being "livid" with the Giants because of her belief that the team was leaning heavily on her son in an effort to control her. She also wrote about deciding to skip the Giants' most recent game against the Los Angeles Rams, even though she made the trip to London -- a move that "definitely hurt" her son.
Eli Apple remembers it as being the first game his mother has missed since he was in high school.
Apple was asked seven minutes' worth of questions Thursday, exclusively about his mother, her columns and their relationship, rather than anything about this week's matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles. He said he expected it but also denied that the team was leaning on him to keep her quiet.
"I'll tell her [they're not pressuring me]," Apple said.

Maybe a change of scenery is needed. Whatever happens, I hope he gets everything going on in his personal life in order.
