I will say that FSU fans who saw him at UF and now at OSU have told me he seems night and day different. Seems much more happy on a daily basis now, and more thrilled with wins.
I agree if we are talking post-2008, but I'm not sure anyone will ever see the pre-2008 Meyer again. The pressure and expectations definitely changed him and he took every loss incredibly hard. He is definitely different now, that has been evident since his introductory PC at OSU.

Absolutely. His priorities are different, which doesn't always end well when you're paid to win football games, and when you're at a school like OSU, to win National Titles

U must really want out to invent a disease and quit on your players.
Something about LSU and Bama made the kitchen a bit warm for the urb. Add in the kind of athletes needed to compete against these two teams demands great leadership, which Urb doesnt possess. There was only going to be one outcome. Miami comes to kind with Coker.
Urb took the easy way out and landed at easy Ohio State, where he will win more than Saban or Miles moving forward. Life is fair or no?
See what u get when u preach never quit and suck it up and then u do exactly that the very first time u face adversity.....
Urban "the fraud" Meyer wanted out of Florida before the thing exploded and cost him his legacy. Worked out great and an even better example of hypocrisy being rewarded in this country again.
Go Buckeyes!

He was forced out when he leaked information about Cam Newton supposedly cheating on his exams or some shite, which is federally protected information. Of course Florida and ESPN let him leave with dignity, allowing him to use the "health and family" excuse.
Yeah right buddy. I'm sure everyone knew cam was sorry and why he got the boot.

I always laugh at this picture. I mean is he supposed to be happy eating a sandwich? He's upset they lost and is eating before they get on the bus for a 5 hour drive back

However, the one that I always laugh about is the "30 arrests." That really isn't that big of a number over 6 years in todays world.
You have to remember that Meyer is accused of covering up drug use and other malfeasance by his players.
My favorite example:

Want to guess whether he played or not?
He Sure Did
Turns out it was just a great big misunderstanding.

Sure.

You have nothing to add to this thread other than your backwater theories (most of which came from other posters in this thread). Notice how most posters are linking to relevant info?

I thought you would like that one. It has a "BoominHogtown" feel to it.

Meyer supposedly had a lot of skeletons chasing him out of Florida. His health scare tactics were so damn transparent.

Um. It's not all that complicated he didn't have any work-life balance (seriously he lost like 40 pounds during the 2009 season and collapsed after the SEC championship game- the whole season was sloppy because he was breaking down during it) he tried to quit, Foley asked him back, he trounced and tried to do it halfway, a realized that wasn't doable, quit, realized he couldn't live retired and came back with a better overall balance.
Everything about Meyer's tenure at UF tells of a man who worked way, way too hard- hell he was even a hard arse disciplinarian ala Boom prior to the Atkins tragedy which scared him into giving kids 3rd and 4th chances.

Just an FYI it helps if you post a response to the person you are responding to rather than your previous post. Or just edit your reply when your insightful comments come flooding through that noodle of yours. Or just stop posting altogether.
I called you out for spreading shite with no sources. U mad bro?
