Is it unusual......

[BigOrangeMojo]

I can see this story coming out in December....

In his first act as USC's head coach, Urban Meyer has hired OJ Simpson as the brand ambassador for USC football. According to Meyer, OJ has the "killer instinct" and the ability to "hit hard" that I want to instill in my players and coaching staff...

"Guys. It's fine. Tebow can balance out the team morality with at least 7 murderers."

-Urban Meyer in 2006.

Wasn't it reported that Tebow circumcised little boys?

 

[Gandalf]

Considering Little, Stallworth, and Goodrich, we might not need to cast stones...

IMO you cant compare DUIs accidents to going out and putting a bullet in someone's head. People are still dead but whole different circumstances, whole different mindset.

 

[508mikey]

You forgot Janzen Jackson

wasnt Brent Vinson involved in a murder also?

Peyton Manning murdered Bama as well...

 

[Ten_Titans]

Sad that we still have some jealous of Tebow decency.

That post had nothing to do with Tebow.

It has to do with everyone in 06 acting like that was God's team with multiple murderers on the team.

 

[OnlyGodForgives]

i agree Urban is the definition of a sleazy used car salesman.

I thought that was Butch. Do you mean "successful sleazy used car salesman?"

 

[TAF]

I'm NOT an Urban Meyer fan...by ANY means...

but...it's not the fault of ANY coach...but the fault of a circumstance of "coddled athletes" who's EVERY whim is met by an organization (college and pro) who do NOT come from a foundational background of good morals and ethics to rely upon. It ALL eventually catches up to them in their actions, that they deem reasonable, and have lived so long without real consequences.

*step down from soap box*

Oh yeah, I forgot all about him.

Report: Ex-Phoebus player Brent Vinson arrested in murder investigation

Yup

Agree 100%

 

[TennesseeTarheel]

I’m not sure if Tennessee fans should be making fun of any other schools for players killing people. We may be at the top of the list.

Yeah, but, they probably needed killing.

Well, he was a slashing style back.

 

[rickyb712]

They use to kill us.

 

[Grudenhaslanded]

You have to have a few thugs to have a good team in the SEC.

 

[TJVol95]

To have multiple former players turn out to be murderers?

Asking for a guy named Urban Meyer

Urban the leader of young men lol! Whatever it takes to win then have health problems from guilt.

To play devil's advocate. The culture at a Meyer school is to cover up, disrespect women and not punish players and coaches for violent acts. If the players are conditioned to think they can get away with anything because UF/OSU let them get away with it, does that partially lie at the feet of the person in charge.

Many of the players arrested (ie Hernandez) had no legal issues until they got to Gainesville/Columbus

 

[Gandalf]

Unless they were strangers climbing up ol' Rocky Top, probably not.

 

[Dudleys87]

Urban does seem like a scumbag. Most Gator fans seem to hate him these days.

He quit when winning wasn’t as easy as turning the lights on and off much like Spurrier at USCe

If the man cared at all about any of his guys he’d have seen the things going on around the program. He turned a blindeye and rode it as far as he could and never showed a bit of remorse

I think you can always point at Urban’s former players track record during their time in Gainesville and even somethings I’ve heard about some “STAR” guys in Columbus that show he turned a blind eye. To me, the thing that stuck out to me that we actually saw was a huge indiictment of his character was on camera when he read that canned BULL $$$$ statement about Zack Smith and showed no human qualities whatsoever. He just read the script, didn’t take a breath or a pause and you could see where his priorities were.

Also, anyone who pays attention to some of the Gator posters on this board know that him leaving Gainesville was more of an attempt to get away from his UF coed issues because he was destroying his family and not his overall well being. He may not be healthy all the time, but you’d have a hard time convincing me that his issues for the most part have not been largely self inflicted.

Truth.

Wasn’t it stated in the Hernandez trial that he was doing some gang related things while at UF and they chose to not follow up?

I think a lot people have said Hernandez was well known to be into some pretty bad things that they kind of chose to not to see. I don’t know that though.

 

[jackaro]

Who was the coach at SMU when Craig James was killing those 5 hookers? He had to have been worse than Urban Meyer.

Obviously it Doesent matter now but that tells me all I need to know about how far those schools will go to win championships.

Let’s not forget the man that used a dead girls bank card...

Urban: he was her boyfriend so...
