I am still mad at Spurrier for taking the South Carolina job. In fact, I have a bigger problem with Spurrier than Urban! I love what Spurrier has done for UF but that was not the right thing to do, IMNSHO. He could have gone back to the ACC.
I will curious to see if Urban can take any UF coaches with him, especially Mariotti. It was Mariotti who talked Urban into coming back for another season. If Mariotti leaves, then he still believes that Urban has what it takes, mentally and physically, I think. Anyway, why did Urban say the program was "broken", was it recruiting or coaches leaving or the old players vs. the new players situation?

It's not a surprise, and I don't believe he thought he was clearing up space for the OSU job when he retired the second time as our coach. I also think he was sincere when he cited family and health as the reasons for leaving UF, but I also believe that those two concerns tipped the scale when he was looking at a rebuilding process of what he admitted to Coach Muschamp was a "broken" Gators football program. I'm convinced that I wouldn't be seeing so much vitriol and anger from Gators if Coach Meyer had not left us with the mess of a football program he is ultimately responsible for "breaking". All the above are rational thoughts. My reaction to his taking the OSU job is just not rational. I feel betrayed. I FEEL like he is a liar and a hypocrite, and I have just become an avid hater of OSU. (I disliked OSU, but I'm now in the "make "Hail to the Victors my ringtone" camp. I just can't help but replay all his "this is the top of the mountain" comments about UF and respond with a sincere F*** YOU URB! BAH!
