GAINESVILLE, Fla. - Urban Meyer has resigned. Please don't stop if you've read this before.This time he means it. But since he was the coach who cried wolf last year, it's only natural to greet Wednesday's news with some Favre-like skepticism.
So to all you doubters, let me quash the rumors. This has nothing to do with Meyer wanting to avoid Jenn Sterger or hook up again with Tim Tebow. Meyer simply needed a year to figure out he got it right last time.
He really can't handle this head-coaching stuff any more.
"I think Florida deserves the best," he said. "I'm not sure we gave them the best last year."
A 7-5 record was a pretty good indication. So was Meyer's reaction after the first game when he was asked why touted redshirt freshman Andre Debose didn't play.
"Andre Debose didn't play?" he asked.
The old Urban would have known how many steps Debose took on the post route he ran in second quarter. He was the robo-coach whose entire life revolved around texting recruits and figuring out how to beat Alabama.
