Nobody Should Hire Urban Meyer, But Someone Will

Filed under: ,


Did you hear the predictable this week? Soon after Urban Meyer was asked by ESPN about his second retirement from Florida's football program in less than a year, he said of a possible return to coaching someday, "No, that's not going to happen."

Uh-huh.

Then he added faster than it takes hands to close during one of those Gator Chomps, "Certainly not right away."

He's coming back, and contrary to what he says, it will be "right away," and that's not good -- not for the school that will be foolish enough to hire Meyer "right away" given his cries in recent months to have somebody save him from himself, and not for the family that he says he wishes to spend more time with, and not for himself.

So what should university presidents and athletics directors do to help Meyer in the near future? Well, as soon as they even think of acquiring the talented but tormented coach, they should apply the old Nancy Reagan approach for drugs to Meyer, and just say no.
