North Carolina interim coach Everett Withers is heading to Ohio State to become Urban Meyer's co-defensive coordinator and assistant head coach.ESPN's Joe Schad reported on Dec. 14 that Ohio State would be hiring Withers, who confirmed his move Wednesday."We've known each other for a couple years," Withers said of Meyer. "A few years ago we talked when the Florida defensive coordinator job came open. So we've got a little bit of a past and I'm looking forward to the future with Coach Meyer."A few hours later, Ohio State announced it had hired Withers."Everett is extremely well-respected across the country," Meyer said in a statement. "I've known about him for a number of years and followed his progress as a college and NFL assistant coach. He will be a great fit for this staff and I think he and Luke (Fickell) are going to work well together as the co-coordinators of our defense."
