Jan. 22nd, 2010...

Florida Gators coach, Urban Meyer, the man who retired, and then un-retired soon after, has pulled the ultimate recruiting strategy: a epiphany from the BIG GUY upstairs, seeing him returning to coach the Gators and, more importantly, five-star recruit Sharif Floyd.

If this seems impossible to believe allow me to quote this story from one of Floyd's High School coaches:

"Sharrif was really confused and put a call into Coach Meyer. When they spoke Coach Meyer told him that he had a ‘dream' the night before, and that Coach Meyer saw himself on the sideline coaching Sharrif. Told him that is was a 'message from God that I should come back and coach, as I guess if it's my time to die, I'd rather die on the sidelines coaching you than anywhere else in the world.'"

"Sharrif talked to us the next day and said Ohio State is great and all, but Coach Meyer said he would DIE for me. That's pretty intense. From that day on Sharrif mainly kept to himself. But that was the turning point in my eyes."
