There was a lot of news last week about Urban Meyer creating a toxic environment and calling his assistant coaches names. But I think winning is the name of the game and 2-11 is just bad.

Plenty of coaches survive worse than that. Jimmy Johnson went 1-15 in his first year with the Cowboys and well you know what happened after. What did Urban in was the multiple off-field stuff and toxic environment surrounding the team that looks most likely attributed to him. He couldn’t win enough to mask those issues like he could do in college with Florida and Ohio St. Like the saying goes “winning cures all”. Well he couldn’t win in the NFL so everything else came to the forefront.

i dunno not like he had a long shot at it. seems like he was an okole tho kicking the kickers legs and saying i can do what i want. strange to think he may have gotten away with that stuff at OSU but not necessarily down to his coaching ability in so few games.

should have been fired tho, sounds like an okole.
