| Legend or Urban Liar? Florida Football: Is Meyer an Urban Legend or Urban Liar? | Bleacher Report
MY Favorite:
Just Funny: You can't tell the story about Jevan Snead enough (recounted in the book Meat Market). The funniest thing I read in it concerned what Urban Meyer told Jevan Snead. Snead had watched the Outside the Lines special on Tebow, which showed Meyer and OC Dan Mullen in the stands. Problem was, Meyer had told Snead, committed at the time, that he was the only quarterback they were going after.
When Snead asked Meyer about it, Meyer responded, "We are recruiting him for linebacker." I had heard that before, but got a big kick out of reading it in the book straight from Snead. |

| Haha that is funny, but I'm sure all coaches are pretty sneaky when it comes to recruiting. |

That's something I'm sure Kiffin is harping on that he won't do. Hopefully it will catch on with these kids. |

Is that a good thing? Maybe, maybe not. |

| I never have like Urban Oscar Meyer. He looks almost exactly like a weasel.

| I'm hoping that CEO goes after CUM the way he did the recruiter from UCLA that it talks about in Meat Market. If not, maybe they will bump into each other at a recruits house and CEO will go "Hulk" and tear CUM apart, limb from limb. |

Boyd might very well not be a good fit for the pocket QB Kiffin wants. I'll trust Kiffin's judgment on that. Boyd could go on to be an AA at Clemson (if he signs there) and I wouldn't care. Good for him... doesn't mean he would be an AA here. |

| | Senior Member | Funny how when Kiffin does something to antagonize people on the recruiting trail he gets a slap on the back whereas if Meyer and his staff play hardball (but within the rules) people can't wait to criticize. |

What has Kiffin done that compares with what Meyer has done?
