shite... Good question...

Meyer obviously brought and unprecedented run but Spurrier started it all. Hard to answer.

Meyer got it done in a much tougher league than Spurrier fwiw. Still, the Old Ball Coach was great for Florida and the entire SEC. Cudos to both.

As a UGA fan, here's my 2 cents: Spurrier by a mile. He basically took UF from a Ga Tech position relative to UGA and completely flipped it upside down. The SEC East has never been the same since and god do I hate the bastard for it Urban merely carried out perfectly the UF legacy for the original architect

I'm serious.

In 20 years when Florida fans will look back at UF history the biggest thing that will stand out is when Tebow was here.

<---not a florida fan

but i'd say spurrier. Spurrier is not a pussy. And Spurrier won his title without Tim Tebow.

Spurrier. He built Florida to what it is now.

Frankly, Spurrier did more without a legendary college football player. Sure, Wuerffel won the Heisman in 1996 but so has Jason White and Eric Crouch. Meyer had Tebow 4 of 6 years. Sorta like Chiz has Cam this year.

Spurrier

He is UF through and through, interacted with the fans and media, made that program into a scary powerhouse and did it over a long time. His legacy will be far greater than just a NC win.

Meyer is a great coach no question but in terms of history, he won't stack up to Spurrier.

Spurrier changed the culture at Florida. They had never even won a legitimate SEC title before here arrived. Spurrier>>Meyer. Props to Meyer though, he has 2 BCSNC.
