Urban Meyer fired
- Thread starter Irishjohn68
- Start date
It is the stink for sure. He denied kicking the kicker and said he has a witness to the episode, so who knows. I read, where the girl at the nightclub came 'a dancin' his way, and initiated the contact with him. But he didn't discourage her and admitted he was wrong. In related news, LSUHC Kelly was said to be there doing the bump with...nahhh I'm sure it was just a rumor.
Well, if his boring delivery wasn't enough to keep him off TV in the first place, I don't know what would. I thought he was terrible the few times I heard him.
What happens when LSU buys out Kelly and hires Mayer? Then we'll know the end is close.
St Lou resigned. He later said he wished that he'd stuck around for the last few games.
Why is Art Briles still banished?
Many schools won't hire Urban anymore. The domestic abuse coverup, the bar grouping incident and the kicking of a player in the NFL forecloses that.

I feel like Urban thought he had to act MORE like an egomaniac to coach fully grown men, where as in reality you can’t get away with that in the NFL like you can in college. Not going to lie I have never liked him and I’m kind of glad to see him fail so epically.
The sexual assault issues at Baylor were and are egregious. They are on the level of Penn State. I wish criminal charges upon them. Urban didn't rise to this level of depravity.....thankfully.
He didnt have enough time and the Jags will be getting top round picks. They arent a great organization. I think Meyer would have eventually turned it around. Who cares what his players thought. Most of them are average on their best day with the exception of a few.
If he was 11-2 instead of 2-11 do you think he would have been fired ? No way !
To clarify, he didn’t grope a woman in a bar, the woman was the aggressor, backing into him, giving him a mild, standing semi-lap dance.
As to the allegation that he kicked a kicker, I’d like to hear from other players who witnessed the alleged event. Let’s not forget that the kicker was cut, ergo he has an axe to grind.
Like him or not Meyer was an elite college coach, at Utah, Florida and Ohio State.
His college record is spectacular.
What help does he need ?
And let’s not forget that he was a spectacular college coach who made winners out of losers everywhere he coached
I don’t think that the owner will roll the dice with back to back college coaches.
I could see a few P5 programs taking a shot at Urban. Arizona St, Nebraska, and eventually, two or three SEC teams.
UM didn't get fired for being 2-11 or anything else on the field. His transgressions are all off the field. Meyer has no self awareness.
Well, not so sure, when it comes to ‘winning’ universities are not discouraged easily.

Describe in detail, “his behavior”
Or, are you just another ill informed sheep following the herd without knowing the facts.
So please, with detailed specificity, describe “his behavior”
If Meyer was 11-2 he’d still be the coach of the Jaguars.
List “his transgressions” !
Hiring the strength coach from Iowa who had some "racial insensitivity issues", calling his assistants losers, lying to his owner, kicking a player, the bar issue with the female, the team culture being in the crapper. Maybe if he was 11-2 these would be overlooked, but probably not at 6-7 and definitely not at 2-11.
You are a weird dude. Do I have to explain behavior to you or are you smart enough to already know what it means? You ask a lot of dumb questions to things you should have learned in elementary school.
Let’s start one by one, what bar issue with the female ?
Nice try at avoiding accountability.
You made a generalized accusation, so I asked you to identify the individual transgressions and you failed to do so, choosing instead to divert attention from your ignorance.
So again, and without the help of others, identify the transgressions.
My God you are as dumb as Golson5. You can honestly look at the video in the bar and you still don’t understand what the issue is? Life is too short to walk around dumb.
Why should I have to do the work for? This is something you should have learned a long time ago. Try and keep up.
2 of the 3 dumbest posters on this board going at it
Pure comedy! Love it! All you clowns need is savvy and it will be the trifecta
Here is the bar scene tape that I found. Now I am not a fan of UM, but she was on him. And as I said, his mistake was he didn't seem to do anything to dissuade her. Being a public figure, you need to be aware of everything you do in public.
Yes, I’ve seen the video where the woman was the aggressor.
So explain to us what the big deal is ?
Have you never been in a strip joint and had a lap dance ?
I find it beyond sad that just about everyone is ripping this guy. They are the problem. They are enablers.
Where were they for the entirety of his career? He has always been the same. Yet they overlook it all and enable his crap. Sad commentary on the media and players
Weisenheimer,
That’s almost impossible to do when everyone has a cellphone camera.
Let he who hasn’t had a lap dance cast the first stone !
How does this rise to the level of grounds for dismissal, this is no big deal.
This is a common occurrence amongst NFL players and coaches,
women throw themselves at athletes and celebrities ad nauseum.
