The "beef" between former Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer and former NFL punter Pat McAfee continued on Monday morning. McAfee called Meyer a "bum" on ESPN's Get Up!
This feud started a couple of weeks ago, when Meyer took a not-so-subtle shot at ESPN's College GameDay while discussing his success on FOX's Big Noon Kickoff.
"I had fun - turns out folks wanna talk about football, they don't want to see jumpin' in lakes or goin on rollercoasters," Meyer told BTN.
Meyer was likely referencing Pat McAfee's jump into a river at Baylor while College GameDay was in town for the game vs. Oklahoma. McAfee then clapped back at Meyer on Twitter.
Things heated up on Monday morning, as McAfee appeared on Get Up! and discussed the Meyer-to-the-NFL rumors. Meyer sat in Daniel Snyder's owner's box on Sunday at the Redskins-Eagles game.
"Urban Meyer took a shot at me out of nowhere so I obviously think he’s a bum strictly because of that. Urban Meyer has gone in, scandal and then left, I dunno if you can do that in the NFL," McAfee said.
Meyer will likely get a chance to coach in the NFL - if he wants one. The Dallas Cowboys, Washington Redskins and New York Giants could all have head coaching openings. Meyer could be a candidate for all three jobs.
