So Ohio State trades one cheating scumbag for a guy who was a cheating scumbag at Florida. As far as I know he was clean here, but he was corrupted by the must-win-at-all-costs attitude of the SEC. The stories presented here are pretty consistent with other stories I've heard from his time in Florida. He's Ohio State's problem now.

Not a whole lot of new things here if you've paid attention to Meyer over the years. He's concerned with his own success above others.

I'm not speaking from observation but if anyone thinks Meyer was completely squeaky clean during his time here I'd call you naïve.

Seems like some of the types of issues they allege took place at UF after he left seem to be some of the same things that popped up at BG after he left, if to a lesser degree.

People forget that before testing for steriods and other performance enhancing drugs many athletes used illegal drugs and consumed large amounts of alcohol. I think some coaches are "old school" in that they saw these behaviors in the past when adults didn't look for them and look past them now. Too much money is at stake as well to not put the best player on the field.
I proudly chose to be a Falcon and a Falcon I will remain until the end.

He actually used the word "warrior" to describe a football player in an interview yesterday. I 'bout fell out laughing. I'm sure other coaches do that as well but please...."warrior" without even being a little embarrassed?

Maybe he was referring to these warriors...

This was supposed to be a pic from the original Warriors movie, but, alas, the pic won't show up. :(

I don't think Urban Meyer is aware that his football team has lacrosse team.
Or a volleyball team.
Or a basketball team.

Or a university.
