Evgeny Sergeev/iStock/Thinkstock(COLUMBUS, Ohio) — Don’t mess with Ohio State football coach Urban Meyer. Meyer knows a thing or two about blocking — both on and off the gridiron.
Running back Warren Ball Jr. tweeted out a picture on Monday showing what happens when you park in the head coach’s spot.
Meyer appears to have ignored the empty spots next to the silver Jeep and instead opted for his usual spot, just a couple feet behind the other car.
The spot doesn’t have a sign reserving it for the coach, however, Ball tweeted that Meyer parks there every day and it’s “just a know[n] thing.”
The blocked-in Jeep donned a Duke bumper sticker, license plates from Alaska and a sticker from the Lawrence School. The puzzle pieces all started to fit together and the evidence all pointed straight to the new Ohio State kicker Jack Willoughby as that parking spot interloper, according to the Eleven Warriors, an independent OSU fan site.
Willoughby transferred from Duke and is from Princeton, New Jersey, in the same town as the Lawrence School.
Monday’s first day of summer workouts will probably be the Ohio State rookie’s first and last time stealing Meyer’s parking spot.
By 3:30 p.m., Eric Seger tweeted that the jeep was freed from Meyer’s textbook blocking move.
The Ohio State Athletic Department did not immediately respond to ABC News’ request for comment.
