UPDATE: Urban Meyer's resignation is now a leave of absence

[NCGatorBait]

Does anyone smell anything suspicious?

In 1995, after losing to a mediocre Clemson team, Coach Mike Krzyzewski suddenly developed back problems and the news was he was suffering from exhaustion. Coach Krzyzewski took a leave of absence. He left the team to assistant Paul Gaudet. Duke finished 2-14 that year in the ACC. Coach Gaudet was let go at the end of the year.

Does Urban Meyer know something we don't?

Coach K actually petitioned the NCAA to have those losses exonerated from his record...

He just couldn't stand not being the center of attention after 'bama whipped their tail. He's smiling up there because the focus is back on him. He's trying his best to hang on without cracking up. I'd really let my kid go play for this guy...geez.

Tebow is so gay... "we say that to each other" in regards to him and Meyer saying I love you...

 

[jeremytn]

A publicity stunt. Nothing more. To get a little emotion flowing for his team because they had a great chance they can get their asses kicked by Cincy. He's trying to get them to win one for him. Then he'll play some golf, jerk timmy a few times over the summer and return in the fall.

GOD I hate Tebow.

Wasn't it nice to hear Pete Thamel ask his question while sitting with the Meyer family???

 

[DownTheField]

this is total bs

 

[Ohiovol09]

So he says he is quitting, then just a leave of absence, then when asked if he would be back for the NEXT FOOTBALL SEASON he says yes?

Doesn't add up.

This is the most unorganized presser I've ever seen. Nobody knows anything.

 

[RockyTop411]

He'll be back. This is not concerning anymore. Everything will be fine at Florida. Nothing is gunna happen.

 

[Lawrence Wright]

so there are Gator boards? i gave up yrs ago

There's this super secret internet message board out there that had the original resignation confirmed at around 4:00 yesterday.

I could tell you more, but NCGatorBait would drive down to Orlando and step on my throat with his gigantic Size 18 combat boots.

This press conference was bizarre, then it turned nonsensical, and now it's just boring.

"I'm retiring. I'm taking a leave of absence. I'll be there in the fall." Cluster-****

 

[banman360]

wont comment on whether or not his doctor said to step down

 

[3 Rocky Top Cove]

So if he is on a leave of absence, can he contact recruits? Could CLK get his "Urban is cheating" moment?

 

[DownTheField]

he won t comment on dr s opinion? he s a moron

That was what I was thinking. They have come FULL CIRCLE now.

[DownTheField]

a complete and total douche

 

[CountVolcula]

Urban wont be back. This is to salvage the recruiting after what Florida saw as a disaster for the 2010 class.

 

[hmanvolfan]

The main reason for all of this drama is supposedly health issues but Meyer won't talk about the health issues. That's lame as hell.

 

[banman360]

so the doctor didnt say he needed to step down. wow

 

[3 Rocky Top Cove]

Still good recruiting material for the rest of the SEC coaches..."They don't have a clue as to what will happen over the next four years."

Kiffin could learn a thing or two from Meyer on how to generate media attention.

 

[banman360]

well done on that last question.......yes

**not sarcasm that was actually pretty funny
