This is simply not accurate. If it were true, Alabama wins in 2014. Meyer was running the same offense, and our QB that year was far, far, far from elite. Meyer is a great head coach. Not even close to Saban, but still great, and not for gimicky reasons. He is not Gus Malzahn.
He has issues that are not connected in any way to his coaching ability that will always limit how long he will remain welcome and stable in any one place. So, yes, he moves on. I am happy that he moved on from OSU. But he didn't leave OSU for an easier road to the CFP. He left OSU because he wore out his welcome.
