BREAKING: Urban Meyer Stepping down for health reasons!

my friend texted me while i was in the shower with the news

with the loss of Strong and Meyer, can we steal any recruits from these guys?

that we will never see the epic Carroll vs Meyer, Gator vs Trojan showdown. Hopefully, we grab a UF lean or two. Look for Tenn to emerge as an SEC power sooner.

I make it a habit not to know too much about Gator football, it’s hard to discern between the myth and reality. The reality, as I know it, is that Gator football gets a pass- I mean how often do you hear the announcers talk about the players on that team and all their DUI’s, traffic/speeding tickets, etc when they play a game. (ineligible, code of conduct, etc???)

But as far as a football administrator/coach- Urban Meyer seems squeaky clean? Why? Because the magnifying glass isn’t as focused in Florida as it is in Los Angeles, that’s the only thing I can gather. But even still, what he’s accomplished as a coach is pretty phenomenal and doing it as long as he has from Utah to Florida? Geeze, either that guy’s given a pass or there really isn’t much to some of the accusations, player conduct, or principles of his coaching.

He says he’s hurting healthwise, I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt. When/if any NCAA investigations surface- he’s fresh meat, even if he never coaches another day in his life. (which, is the only thing I’d doubt, as far as the news that he’s stepping down)

For that matter, the press releases say he’ll still be a part of Gator football in some capacity- and if that’s so, you’d think if the Florida AD knows of some impending violations that have occurred on Meyer’s watch- they’d want him as far away from Gator-anything from this point forward? You’d think?
