Florida Coach Urban Meyer steps down...

Breaking news that Urban Meyer has resigned at Florida. Not sure about any of the details other than that. He either has another gig lined up or a major scandal is about to break loose.

Very young to be leaving due to health, I'm sure he knows and respects his limits though. Best wishes on getting well.

This AP article posted on the WRAL web site has more information about the symptoms Meyer's been dealing with. http://www.wralsportsfan.com/college_fo ... y/6694870/

Dealing with chest pains occurring when under stress doesn't sound like a situation to tolerate and postpone action on. Trying to face the problem of a potentially serious health issue is rarely a linear process. I'm not as cynical as some may be about Coach Meyer's decision is nor how it's made.

FDA probably ....ummm, can't say that even here. Well, made a mess of himself watching Tim Tebow last night. That amount of man love just ain't right.
