Urban F. Meyer (Former OSU, CFB and NFL coach)

How unlucky are we that we've had two of the elite coaches in their respective sports have to retire due to health problems in their early 50s (Matta and Meyer)?

Unlucky??? Urban won 90% of his games and won a natty in 7 years. Count your blessings.

We were extremely lucky to have had them both.

In football you would have rather been lucky and got Carr, Rodriquez, Hoke, and/or Harbaugh.

I think the "have to retire due to health problems" portion of @OhioState001 comment means we were unlucky to have lost them earlier than we would have had they not had the health problems.

How lucky we are we to have had both. And how lucky do we appear to be in the early stages transitioning away from these two men who took their respective programs to historic heights.
