****BREAKING NEWS****Urban Meyer Steps down at Florida

:o Wow, this is unexpected! I can't say I cared much for Meyer's ego at times, but he is unquestionably a great football coach. And I hate to see anyone sidelined for health reasons, so (I can't believe I'm saying this) best of luck to you Coach Meyer.

He will be back.

Now... Who is taking over??

I picture Tebow leading his team to the Super Bowl next year, while also coaching Florida to a National Championship.

 
Unbelievable! Even though I am not a Gator fan, I hope his health is alright. He is/was an excellent coach and has had some big time success...hopefully he now has success dealing with these issues.

I wonder who UF will steal now????

 
This was a shocker and will definetily send ripples through College Football.

I hope he is ok because he always seemed like a good guy, but at the same time Im always thinking about the Huskers and the possible affect this could have.

I know it likely won't directly affect Nebraska, but down the line it could... Florida takes X coach, that school takes Y, etc, etc...

High blood pressure/burnout/etc is my guess.

If nothing else, he'll come back healthier & probably make more then anyhow.

(or he got sick of getting crap about the loss to bama & told the boosters & UF to get f'd.

 
Just reported by ESPN....

Meyer has a heart muscle defect.

Meyer has been to the hospital multiple times since suffering chest pains after the SEC title game, a Florida source told ESPN. He has been diagnosed with a heart valve muscle defect, the source said.
The problem is not life threatening, a Florida source with knowledge of the situation told ESPN's Chris Mortensen. The same source said Meyer will remain in Gainesville in a non-coaching role to be defined later.

Meyer will hold a news conference in New Orleans on Sunday afternoon and will coach his final game in the Allstate Sugar Bowl against Cincinnati on New Year's Day.
 
Will be interesting who they will go after. You know the first person name they throw out will probably be Stoops, then Steve spur. <_<

Kind of interesting they were coming up with comparisons of people leaving in their peak and TO name wasn't mentioned. <_<

 
Can't Teblow put one hand on his shoulder while he gives himself a tug & rub while mummbling something that sounds remotely Italian and heal him?

I thought that's how it was supposed to work?
