Tremendous??? I would lose all respect. It's fair to say he knew the cupboard was empty. If the reasons for leaving were fabricated, I wash my hands---despite what he did for the program. Just so you know; lying is near the bottom of my list of undesirable character traits.

He did great things at UF, 2 NC's, but the last 12-18 months he mailed it in and left us with a roster short on numbers. He cited health and family issues for his departure, I was willing to give him a pass on the last 12-18 months based on his stated reason for leaving and the 2 NC's. But if he takes the Penn State job, less than 1 year after leaving UF, given the mess they are in and their desire to win I can only conclude that he skipped out on UF knowing the roster was shorthanded. I don't want to believe Urban Meyer departed using less than truthful reasons, but if he takes the Penn State or Ohio State job if it comes open then I will have no choice.
