Pricks win titles. Magnanimous guys win friends.
It's why it's good to have him back. We need some drama.
Probably the best example since we are talking about the greatest pro sports franchise in history .
We're both Gators. We both know of many non-Gators who think SOS is a huge prick. It depends on who's being the prick and how they do it. I met Spurrier once, on assignment, and came away thinking he was pretty adept at being a prick, but different than Meyer. He exuded an indifferent air, an arrogance. I suppose Meyer can be both, but I've never met him in person.
Dude, like Urban or hate him he's a shark that knows the smell of blood in the water. Whether that means capitalizing on momentum in a game, blowing out a cupcake so his reserves get playing time or putting himself in a position to be on top for a short time.....the only question in my mind is if he'll take it if Stricklin remains after Karls axing....plain and simple. And you better bet being in Jax he's in full contact and rubbing elbows with some big donors too.
He sought and capitalized on momentum swings. In all three phases of the game.
And we did give him a chance. You were successful beyond your wildest dreams. No one was wanting him fired after Year 1 (despite some troublesome signs); and we didn't exactly start calling for his head until the back-end of this season when the coaching mistakes started adding up.
As for Meyer: I think the fans would accept him, even if the UF Admins might grumble.
Accept him? After the last dozen years, the fans would build golden idols of him. They would throw rose petals in front of him everywhere he walked around town.
I've never met Urbs or SOS but I did meet Lou Holtz and Lee Corso. Corso was the nicest man you would ever meet. Talked with my staff for over 30 minutes laughing and joking.... Holtz on the other hand had 2 servers to wait on him by himself and when they approached to see if he needed anything he just looked over the top of his newspaper and "shooed" at them with his hand like they were human flies without saying a word.....who do you think was the better coach?
But... were there flies?
He was the most unpopular member at the club amongst the staff or other members....thank god he was hardly ever there.....but if he could keep you from eating frozen pizzas and taking crying game showers after losing at home on homecoming, during a blackout game to a team that only won 2 games all year I would welcome him with open arms....
3/4 of this board has "pooched" your mom....
I love me some pricks.
The more people that publicly slam Billy boy the better. He’s scum and loser mentality must be eradicated from gator nation .
Until there is enough money involved. Dude would kill it in college now with the right staff/boosters. It's legal to be sleazy and he would fit right in.
