Is Urban Meyer Coach of the Year?

Urban Meyer has had a wild year. His Buckeyes are the youngest and most inexperienced they’ve ever been but has managed a 6-0 (3-0, Big Ten) start to their season. A expose Bleacher report that went through his struggles with Ambien abuse, stress and how important being the best is to him.
