Quote
"I have been a Division I football coach for the last 25 years and, during that time, my primary focus has been making a difference in the lives of the young men I have been so fortunate to have coached and building championship programs," Meyer said in a statement. "At this time in my life, however, I fully grasp the sacrifices my 24/7 profession has demanded of me, and I know it is time to put my focus on my family and life away from the field.

"The decision to step down was a difficult one. But, after spending more than two decades motivating and celebrating the young men I've been so proud to coach, I relish the opportunity to cheer for my three terrific kids as they compete in their own respective sports. I know how fortunate I am to be in a position to make this choice and to have a family that is as loving and supportive as my amazing wife and children have always been. My family has shared both the commitment and the sacrifice required to coach at this level for so long and I would not have enjoyed the success I have had without their support."

Great slowplay by Meyer over the last 10 years(ish), IMO.  Gig at a MAC school, coach up a non-AQ contender, learn the ropes of being a HC at a BCS school, then get the keys to the kingdom from a Legend.  Will surely retire as LHCUM

He picked the perfect time....Alabama, Auburn, and South Carolina are kicking down his door. 


I wonder if UF will go get Spurrier again?  That would be fun.

Either program should be happy.  The last two ISU head coaches were coaching in the national title game just a couple years after getting out of Ames.

Florida won't be able to afford a new football coach and new basketball coach in the same year.

They should go for Chris Peterson or Kyle Whittingham.

All fine and dandy until Urban sneaks out of the office to grab a coke.

OMG murder waiting in the wings... Will be billed as a "bus accident" where the driver "just didn't see him crossing." Herbie just called the SEC the best college football conference in the nation, "year in and year out."

RIP Herbie, you made cheeseburger bearable. :frown:
Fly, Eddie. Fly.


Ooh, nice outfit. What is that, Dacron?
