Orlando Sentinel is reporting that they have spoken with Assistant Coach Dan McCarney, who has confirmed this.

Where's the guy that came on here saying Urban Meyer had something much more serious than a heart defect?

Haha, yea.
On another note, this seems fishy. Urban released a statement yesterday saying he was resigning, and under 12 hours after the media creates a big hoopla over it he says, "well nevermind". Shady character, Meyer is.

Probably on the help board requesting a name change.

He's trying to find his HIPAA handbook because he only got a HIPPA handbook and so now he's....

You know what. It's just easier to call him stupid and be done with it.

This will turn into a complete clusterfrick.

Urban is gone. He's saying this "leave of absence" bullshite out of respect for the Florida program so he doesn't hurt recruiting.

Inside source HSV? Or just your opinion???

Not flaming, you just never know who knows what around here.

It does seem weird?

I see two scenarios:

1) take the leave get healthy and come back in 2011

2) take the leave, not get healed up like he needs and we start over.

I think the intent is number 1. Foley wouldn't allow Addazio to be the HC for one year and keep the program in limbo. It would set us back way too much.

Bingo! A recruiting ploy. he'll announce again after NSD that he just could not recover without completey stepping down/out.

At least if Uf was smart they'd do this

Y'all are morons... Urban says he'll be back on the sideline at the beginning of next season. Noone can tell for sure what his intentions are but you have NO basis to assume anything else at the min. There's always a possibility that this is just a sleaze bag move to save his recruits, but what happened to all the people on this board last night wishing him well and praying for his health. I'd love to see the guy gone, but I don't think he's going anywhere.

Meyers credibility is lower than it has been since he's been a head coach. He puts out a press release that hints that he has some serious illness then it turns out he's just stressed out. Are you kidding me? stressed out? There is no more pressure coaching at Florida than any other top sec team, barring any self-imposed stress which seams to be meyers deal. You don't see Nick saban having any problems handling the pressure at bama or when he was with lsu.

The spelling "sike" is correct in this context. And urban meyer is an egotistical arse clown that has turned the Florida program into a freakin circus. He rode the tebow train for 4 years now we get to see what kind of coach he really is. Welcome back urb!

Yeah that's 100% correct... But that is a hell of alot of pressure. If you're trying to say that being the head coach of ANY SEC team isn't stressful you're full of crap.

So Meyer decides to quit because his family and faith are very important in addition to his health but after his players cry about it he changes his mind?

Somethings not right there.
