Urban is going to do great in the Big Ten IMHO. He is a very good coach and its not nearly as difficult as the SEC. They hit a home run with this hire -- as long as his 'health' isn't an issue.

His health was bad because he was faceing LSU and Alabama in the SEC championship game every year.

I am viewing it as "Thanks for the 2 national titles and losing only 2 games to FSU, UGA, and Tennessee."

he is a liar, but he was our liar, etc.

Any Florida fan that is really that mad at him needs to examine the positive with the negative, even if the negative has validity. Sure he left the program in serious trouble with talent, gosh, down to 63 players on scholly, and most of them have not performed well for a 6-6 team, but the 2 national titles should far outweigh our current situation.

It really doesn't affect UF that much at all. If anything, it might hurt UT a little because this is another coach who is so well-known in Florida who willl come in and challenge TN for recruits in a talent-rich state, and in other states that UT recruits as well.

Even after Meyer bailed, they were still the biggest show on turf in a talent-laden area. Florida's dominance over the last two decades is still very fresh in the minds of recruits in the area, and I think Muschamp and Weis will have things turned around once they can start implementing players that fit their systems.

Meyer is a hypocrite but the Florida program still had a net gain from him.

As for his prospects at Ohio State, I think he's fine. It's no north Florida, but there's still a lot of talent there and only one other program he has to compete with for recruits in Michigan. Penn State would have been in there as well, but they're going to be out of commission for quite some time.
