If he is this stressed and having health issues in college ball, he probably die at the next level

I think the college level is more stressful when you factor in recuirting and traveling around the country trying to get players, just a guess on my part.

maybe if you ok with preforming like Spurrier did with the Skins. Where does he have to travel too for recruiting? Good lord he is centrally located in the best recruiting area in the country. The state of Florida is the mecca of talent, thats why .500 or below from any of the big 3 in that state is complete fail. That program was long built b4 he got there, he can pull top 5 recruits from any state without traveling as well just based on the tradition of that school over the last twenty years.

"But in any other business, a CEO of a company that size wouldn't have to answer to as many shareholders (fans, boosters) and wouldn't face around-the-clock media coverage and analysis of every decision. In fact, most Fortune 500 CEOs don't get scrutinized nearly as much as Michigan's Rich Rodriguez or Florida's Meyer. Imagine if the CEO of Ford was taken to task in the media because one of the managers on an assembly line was arrested for disorderly conduct"

Thats a good prespective...crazy. Good article, I understanding Urban leaving...hopefully its more of a temporary thing than permenent. These guys cant and dont want to do anything else...I think it was funny how Shanny reportly rented an office and just studied football in his year off...Urban is gonna be back

Do I hear a case for 25 games? Imagine all the media coverage! "Coach dies mid-season!" The tickets practically sell themselves.

Well the players union keeps telling me to compromise shortly after their usual GFYS comments but when I see all the potential money we can make I can't help but see Dollar $ign$! You know what, I feel inspired 41 games! People will be curious, like 'why aren't they using an even number.' And with the added buzz we can charge more for ads.

Side note- Urban Meyer is 46 years old... and he has produced 10, count 'em, 10, head coaches during his tenure as head coach. Pretty nice coaching tree. I'll miss ya Urban. You're the effing man.

Urban Meyer retiring from Florida Gators is still a stunner - ESPN
