Article on Urban Meyer in The Athletic

Recommended Posts

Mike Sando and Jayson Jenks have written an article chronicling Meyer's time with the Jaguars.

And holy crap is there some crazy stuff in here šŸ˜³

Here's the first few paragraphs:

Urban Meyer burst into a room full of players at the Jaguarsā€™ facility. He was furious.

One of his players had missed an assignment during a preseason game, leading to a busted play. Meyer was enraged when it happened. A day later, he was still fuming. If the mistake ever happened again, Meyer warned, he would cut every single one of them.

ā€œAnd do you know what would happen if I cut you guys?ā€ Meyer said, according to four people in the room. ā€œYou couldnā€™t get a job paying more than $15 an hour.ā€

There's more, including a much joked about note that despite being set to take an NFL head coaching job, MeyerĀ had no idea who Aaron Donald and other well known players were.

The full article is here:

What a sick, sad man Urban is.Ā  Feel for his family.Ā  It's just so crazy to read what the players and coaches said.Ā  How can you work with or for someone like that?Ā  How does he keep getting jobs?

Ugh.Ā  Hopefully that's the end.Ā  But I know it's not.

Trevor is also southern, but didn't seem to be included in Meyer's derogatory comment. Wonder if Meyer possibly meant something else by "These boys from the South". Possibly some coded language. Perhaps.

he referred to a male as a boy...big whoop

I kinda think the terms he uses to address people aren't necessarily as big a problem as the fact that he treats everybody under him like absolute trash.

ill agree on that..but the tweet was implying racism..i call all males boys and men

I don't have enough information to know if Meyer is a racist.

With what I know though, I feel pretty comfortable saying he's an a--hole.

Ā well, Trevor is a boy from the south.Ā  Urban was at least implying there was something else there.Ā 

then again, if you don't know who Aaron Darnold is.....maybe Urban didn't realize Trevor playing at Clemson and was born in GA.Ā 

I think Urban just chooses to belittle everyone in a powertrip move and is a just a shitty human.Ā  Ā

Aaron Darnold will be the Panthers starting QB in 2022 and a Top-5 overall player in the league. Ā 

PittĀ Panthers to Carolina Panthers pipeline, check.
