Wow. Urban Meyer stepping down as UF Head Coach

[krulmichael]

Wait wait wait...you guys are really surprised by this? Honestly I don't know much bout Meyer's health but the very first thing I thought of when I saw this was, "Well of course he's gonna resign, he won't have Tebow to make him look good after this year."

But if he really does have some serious health issues I do wish him the best with that.

Not really.
Dick Vermeil quit the Eagles for the same reason in the early 80s.
Some coaches pour their hearts into the job and destroy their health.

Yeah I remember when Tebow was his starting quarterback for his undefeated Utah team back in 04, and when he won it all in 06...

later... life without timmy probably would have been miserable in that dump of a town.

but seriously props to him seriously great coach... the 56-10 record at UF in 5 years, 2 championships, and more importantly 27 players arrested during his tenure.

YAY UFelons

Meyer has nothing to apologize for. And I think Florida will still be an elite program after Tebow.

[BigHouseUSA]

I know most people were joking, but do people really think Meyer was only good because of Tebow?

[Shwayzed]

His new replacement..?


Charlie Weiss.


(Omg dont shoot if already said.)

[Yawkey Way]

how much will this affect the incoming recruiting class?

Part of it will probably depend on his replacement and how fast he is hired. Some recruits might also consider what will happen to their potential position coaches as well. I doubt UF will lose many though.

[SuperKevin]

I wouldn't be shocked if Rich Rodriguez tries everything in his power to get that job

[Irish]

I hope Cody Riggs decommits and goes to ND.
