Urban Meyer retires!?

[tom_hankins]

Wow! Guess hes been having health issues for awhile and he's leaving Florida after there bowl game new years day.

I sincerely hope that there is nothing more to this story than his health.

[tkam]

reported heart muscle problems, nothing immediately life-threatening but he is done coaching.

I dont see him as getting into any kind of stupid trouble, or bailing out for another school.

But as soon as he's up to coaching again, schools will be showing up with big truckloads of cash to get him.

[tom_hankins]

Looks like he's trying to figure out if he can come back. Now Meyers is saying idefinite leave of abscence.

[tyrion]

I would hate to lose him as a coach but better that he not coach and not lose him permanently.

[penger]

I thought he was going to stay involved with Florida but not in a coaching capacity.

Edit: nevermind. just saw the news on espn

[guzziguy]

I don't see how this is going to work. It's kind of like POTUS taking a leave of absence while staying in DC.
