It will be more of a pleasure to stomp them into their turf next fall.

So Kentucky must be ecstatic that Vandy will go back to the cellar dweller and they can have their rightful place at almost dead ass last...

Not just a couple. Many think they could lose half of this incoming class.

Most hated coach?  I think hating Urban Meyer would be akin to hating Charlie Pell.

Yes, they both did bad things while at Florida, but both also did great things for UF.

I'd say Steve Spurrier could have won a few more games than previous coaches without Charlie.

But, to win a national championship at Florida?  There's no way he would have if Charlie hadn't garnered support for building better facilities.

 

As for Urban, he did win 2 national championships while at Florida.  He certainly deserves my support if not my undying friendship.

He probably did tell some half truths/lies.  But, is there a coach out there who wants to move on to the next level who doesn't profess his eternal love for his current institution.

I've been watching the James Franklin saga with Vanderbilt.  He told them when he arrived he would like to retire while at Vanderbilt. 

And he is retiring…   retiring to Penn State…   and taking a couple of this year's recruits with him.

Anchor Up!

Urban Meyer "used" Tim Tebow: NFL Hall-of-Famer and Gators great Jack Youngblood no longer a friend of Urban

A few years ago, when Urban Meyer was the coach of the Florida Gators, I remember talking to NFL Hall-of-Famer and Gator legend Jack Youngblood about UF's football coach.

Youngblood then considered himself a close friend of Meyer's and used words like "integrity" and "class" to describe Meyer's philosophy of coaching.

Not anymore.

Youngblood, a guest on our Open Mike radio show Wednesday, had nothing nice to say about Meyer, the type of athletes Meyer recruited to UF or how Meyer departed Gainesville and became the coach at Ohio State. Like many Gators, Youngblood said he was "very much" disappointed in the way Meyer bolted UF.

You remember, right?

Meyer said he was leaving UF because he needed a break and wanted to spend more time with his family. A few weeks later, after getting a $1 million going-away bonus from UF, he was travelling the country as a college football analyst for ESPN. A few months later, Meyer was accepting the head-coaching job at Ohio State.

"When somebody tells me something to my face, I expect it to be truth," Youngblood said of Meyer. "When it turns out not to be the truth, that doesn't (put him) very high on my Christmas card list."

Youngblood, a Central Florida resident, then alluded to all of the players that were arrested in Meyer's tenure at UF and agreed that Meyer "used" the goodness of Tim Tebow and rode Tebow's coattails to the moral high ground.

"He (Meyer) said character was the No. 1 thing and the main thing he was recruiting on," Youngblood said. "That didn't happen. And then all of the stuff at the end of (his UF stint), there just was just no consistency to me."

Jack Youngblood, a Gator legend, proves the point of the Orlando Sentinel, which last year named Meyer the most hated coach in the history of college sports.

Think about it:

What other coach is so hated by the school where he attained his greatness?
