Scud, thoughts? I dont know what to think, but thats pretty bad if he is telling Diggs he wouldnt let his own son go to Florida.

Well, Urban won us two national championships, so I'm not as pissed as I could be. But I heard rumblings that the inmates were running the asylum when all this was going on. I'm not surprised. I've been hearing for a while that he's a scumbag.

As far as him telling Diggs he wouldn't let his own son go to Florida... Just recruiting talk. He's the one who allowed the program to get to that point.

But Muschamp is a great coach and by all accounts a good guy, plus he's had back to back top 5 recruiting classes in his first two offseasons, so we'll be alright.

SO how long before he shits up the OSU program (again) and he bails(again)??

I think the title of the article is some serious hyperbole, too. Florida football broken? Lol. Hardly. Yes they had a 7-6 record in Muschamp's first season. That record is very poor by UF's standards, but Muschamp is a hot young coaching name, a native of Gainesville, Florida, he was the heir apparent to Mack Brown at Texas until we stole him, and he's turned in two stellar recruiting classes in two offseasons. I'd hardly call that a "broken" program. Maybe temporarily down, but certainly not broken.

Well he's stayed away from really being an NCAA violater. So he may not be a good guy, but I think he'll probably have OSU in the national title conversation within a few seasons. How long he'll stay is another story. Remember he's still relatively young (late 40's), and Florida was his first prime time gig. Maybe he's learned some things and he'll run a tighter ship in Columbus. Or maybe he'll flame out again. Who knows.

agree. I think the way Urban carries himself brings on a lot of the criticism from the media when this type of thing happens with alot of programs with recruiting and the handling of players.
