Urban Meyer

https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl...zx3?li=BBnbfcL


The whole thing seems strange to me, especially the player, and talking head comments. What I see is the glaring screw up job wise is a head coach not flying home with the team, not the moral issue everyone is making it out to be.


True that he embarrassed his wife and kids, but how should that effect the team? We all know the average NFL player isn't exactly a monogamous family man, so why would they expect a coach to be the second coming of Ward Clever?


I have a feeling he is in over his head, his players never liked him, and the Jaguars were looking for any reason to kick him to the gutter and make it look like it is all on him, this is their opportunity and they maybe able to get out of paying his contract. Or on the flip side Urban Meyer is trying to get fired.

^^^^^
The truth is in this paragraph, I think the first part is more likely. One unnamed player stated the room busted out in laughter the moment Urban left the room after his "apology".

I would have given him sh*t for this incident but also this angle


Urban Meyer is still a question mark for me in the NFL

I would’ve fired him. Football is a fan driven business. A large number of which are children.

Urban handled his press conference all wrong, he should have gone full-Al Pacino and really owned it.

In Columbus it’s been revealed that this chick lives in a 400k home near Meyers bar. The taxes have been paid by an Ohio State Booster

He’s toast

I read somewhere the girl worked for a marketing agency and Meyer's bar was one of the customers. Looked around but could not find the article.

Urban is gone, sounds like he is pretty much psychotic. He'll have a hard time getting employed any time soon after this latest incident of kicking a player.

Organizations like Jacksonville are in the position they are in because of the decisions they make. It is that simple.
