This woman has a future doing play-by-play for the Atlanta Braves.

WTF is up with her? Nice emotion. Do the Meyer's share Michael Jackson's pharmacist? Seriously, sound concerned.

She is a Stepford wife.

Just.
Take.
The.
Damn.
Year.
Off.

Jesus. How complicated is it?

And am I the only one who saw the pic from the Sunday presser where Mrs. Meyer was giving her husband the proverbial look that kills?

That 911 call is recruiting manna for the rest of the SEC.

Florida is the flagship university in the state, there's no arguing that. But until Meyer got there, Florida was pretty regularly beaten out for recruits by Miami and Florida State. Will that happen again? We'll see, but it's going to be a lot more competitive now than it would have been if Meyer doesn't retire/unretire/take a leave etc...

They were beaten for a few reasons. I'll just go back 30 years for you. Charley Pell had them ranked but the program was rocked by scandal and then probation.
Galen Hall coached the team from the middle of 1984 until 1989, and matched the 911 record in 1984 with another 911 season in 1985. The 1985 Gators posted the best record in the SEC, but were ineligible for the conference title because of the NCAA probation imposed in 1984. Hall had his own NCAA infractions scandal involving paying his assistant coaches from his own pocket and allegedly paying the child support-related legal expenses of one of his players.
interim head coach Gary Darnell finished the 1989 season.That aided the recruiting efforts of FSU and UM.
It took some time and a few coaching changes, before Spurrier turned things around. The Gators are the winningest Division I-A program since 1990

Prior to Spurrier, the best line ever written about the Florida football program was by Dan Jenkins: "Florida has the arrogance of Alabama and the tradition of Vanderbilt."

I'll agree with that.

It was the "arrogance of Notre Dame and the tradition of Wake Forest"

I'm still taking bets - soon as the class is signed, Urban rides off into the sunset. This is a move to save a recruiting class.

I think you're wrong. I believe he equated them to two other SEC teams. Whatever. Doesn't change the point.

If I am wrong, the mis-remembering of the quote has taken on a life of my own.

You are correct, the sentiment is the same.

If I'm Randy Shannon, Jimbo Fisher, Nick Saban, or Lane Kiffin, I send that clip to every player who has committed to UF.

If he tricks kids to get him to UF then he is the world's biggest douche.

The top player in Florida just decommitted from UF and will go to FSU according to Jeremy Fowler.
