Urban Meyer Out at Florida (merged)

[Vol423]

If it really is for health reasons, then I wish he and his family the very best.

The Lane Train was coming, so he got off the tracks!

 

[05_never_again]

if it's a health problem, why not take an indefinite leave of absence?

 

[hmanvolfan]

Are you sure?

 

[Co. Aytch]

Nothing wrong with wishing bad on somebody. I got no love. So be it.


Lame excuse anyway.

No matter what.... Don't expect Florida to just crumple up & go away..... Too much HS talent. Almost anyone they get will be in great shape..... If they get a Gruden or Stoops or someone of that caliber there will be no dropoff.... Even a Tuberville will keep the ball rolling.

This is the STRANGEST story of the college football season. Why did we not hear anything about his health concerns before this? Maybe he just found out? As a person, football aside, I hope he is ok. This is just strange timing and out of the blue honestly. Let us hope it isn't anything serious or life threatening for him. He may have beat us and we may hate him as a football coach but at the end of the day he's just like every one of us

citing health reasons
Florida coach Urban Meyer steps down for health reasons - ESPN

Wow. He must be seriously ill.

...or he just can't stand the thought of coaching with Tebow.

I wish him the best in whatever health-related battle he faces.

UF must be going nuts tonight.

 

[Burhead]

Meyers headed to the NFL. TeBow going to Jacksonville in the draft.

Jack Del Rio is on a thin leash too this year, very interesting. Personally I think Meyer has an NFL gig lined up that will reunite him with Timmy.

Just got a txt from CBS sports.

 

[VolZAll]

I really doubt that he is stepping down because of the "Lane Train".....Come on guys.....Show some class..........RIDICULOUS

 

[pantone151]

Stoops to Florida... Calling it now

He's a millionaire. If it was your health, I hope you would do whatever was needed.

 

[TennTradition]

Are you sure?

As sure as the main page on ESPN is sure....it's not like this has been discussed

 

[hohenfelsvol]

Weird timing for a health issue. I hope he is ok but the timing is just weird.

 

[berry4heisman77]

Well, as much as I LOVE this moment, I can't sit here and be happy it's because of health reasons. If he was taking another job, I would be estatic, but I wish him good health. I'm not one of these TN homers that wishes doom and gloom on people because we couldn't beat them. Well, maybe I did before this.

yeah i'm with ya, but they said it was no immediate concern so its probably something like high blood pressure, so don't feel bad in seeking a lil joy if it is something that isn't too serious like that.

 

[T-TownVol]

He just earned my respect. Family first!

 

[Through_The_T]

I really hope this is nothing serious, this is way above football. All the raiding recruits and other comments are way out of line, come on people, have some class. Hope he recovers from whatever is affecting him.

yeah i know. you do whatever's needed, then you come back when you're 100% good to go.

the timing of this announcement makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

 

[vol1981]

he couldn't handle being without his soul mate his bromance, the other half to his gay-tor tim tebow so instead of dealing with all the tears he is just leaving.

Fail ^^^^^

 

[SmokeyHowls]

Sounds like Urban is suffering from a broken heart with Tim Tebow leaving Florida. He just can't go on with his soul mate leaving for the NFL. May love find Urban again outside the SEC.

 

[Cackalaka Vol]

That would be a good choice. A better choice would be Stoops. He would be my #1 target if I was the Florida AD.

I think i would take a hard look at CLK and CMK coming to town. It's a natural fit, if CLK could get out of town unharmed.

 

[pantone151]

if it was a serious health issue, would he stay on to coach the Sugar Bowl?
