IF HE DID THIS, THE KICKING INCIDENT, HE POSSIBLY HAD DONE IT BEFORE, BUT WASNT REPORTED.
Imagine what he did to college kids on scholarship
He probably would have got his ass kicked
Yep
Time and adversity will always reveal one's character. Urban Meyer is the biggest egomaniac I've ever seen.
He's an egomaniac for sure. The last President we had in the White House was the biggest egomaniac that I have seen.
@@sportsnerdtv4506 In all fairness, Hillary Clinton has the same ego as Trump and can't admit defeat just like he can't. She still blames her election loss on Susan Sarandon and the Russians even though Bernie was robbed by the neoliberals in the 2016 primary. If you hate Trump, blame her as she pushed the media to prop up Trump thinking he would be easy to beat in a general election. Also blame Obama for being a neoliberal sellout that bailed out Wall Street while ignoring the middle class and poor. Those two people gave us Trump and sadly Biden will give us another term of Trump.
@@soysaucehairdye7869 The past presidential choices and elects and people who were elected all suck aside from al gore since ronald reagan days. Lets be real here.
@@Mattehchan yep
@@sportsnerdtv4506 is there any reason you need to bring up politics in a topic that has nothing to do with politics?
Urban Meyer is the boss you have that will throw you under the bus when he’s under pressure and take the credit for his employees ideas lol. Either way, urban is going to screw you over.
He tried to make tebow a tight end he should've been fired then😂🤦🏽♂️😑
I concur his first stupid move from the get go! 😒
That Tebow move was a huge red flag.
@@samueldenton5512 it was
No the strength and conditioning coach (racist) hire was the first mistake
Silly me, I thought he was going to try and make a wild cat package for him like taysom hill. 😂
Urban’s ALWAYS been a trash person. He just used to be able to control how much of him would be revealed because he could, more times than not, point to the scoreboard or results.
When he had to lead more in the pros, stuff started triggering BS alarms instantly!!!
If a man raise his foot to me, I'm leaving with that foot
I doubt he comes back to college coaching for a year or two. He really hurt himself at JAX. But let's also be honest: Urban was told to leave at Ohio State. It was not reported that way, but I believe Ohio State gave him a 3 game suspension to let him save face, but told him he had to resign at the end of the 2018 season. I know some Buckeye fans love him, but I'm a Buckeye fan and would never want him back as coach. I doubt Florida fans want him back either. But I am sure there will be a college desperate to win who will offer him a job. Sad, but true. My feeling is that more stories of abuse from Utah, Florida, and Ohio State will come out and pretty much seal the deal on his future in coaching college ball. Give me Jim Tressell any day over this guy.
I wouldn't be surprised if USC hired him
My gut feeling is telling me that we got played by Urban Meyer, I truly believe he intentionally sabotaged his career just for a money grab. I remember him having heart issues and when you watched him on the sidelines this year he'd constantly be leaned over with his hands on his knees. The lap dance, the kicking of Josh Lambo, not flying back with your team after a game? This dude knew exactly what he was doing, he took advantage of Shad Kahn's generosity with a large payday and now he's at home counting his chips.
If you would read…… the Jaguars are not paying out his contract
Wrong! Because he's not going to get the remainder of the money on his contract. If he hadn't violated behavior clauses, they'd have to pay him the whole $60 million he's owed.
1. What the two commenters posted above as evidence is sufficient to dispel your theory.
3. Beyond that evidence, to believe that Urban Meyer intentionally shot himself in the foot to get out of coaching in the NFL you would have to believe that he would rather be considered a pariah with a few extra million dollars then remain a football legend and compete to win in the NFL. Nobody expected the Jags to compete this year, so he was under no pressure to win now. Meyer was hired to build a program, and that is what he intended to do. It appears that the players and coaches didn’t appreciate how he was doing that… and that’s why he was fired.
@@benjaminberman6200 Build a program? You mean the way he built Ohio State and Florida? yeah right!!!
@@benjaminberman6200 heres a little caveat to your last point tho. Maybe the rest of the team and maybe even the upper management knew that turning the teams fortunes around wouldnt happen right away or even this season. They knew it would probably take time. But maybe meyer didnt know. This is what i believe, because i think his bar grinding issue, his kicking of a player, his losing the lockerroom, stems from his frustration from losing almost every game. I dont think hes used to having a losing season in anything before. Hes pretty much won wherever he went before until the jags so maybe frustration and impatience got the better of him. Not excusing his behavior, just saying because all he ever did is win (most of the time) in the college ranks, he wasnt mentally prepared for a job in the nfl as a coach of a team that needed to essentially start from scratch.
Meyers Should not be hired back by any college. Society is telling us that they will not stand up for these types of abuses. So let’s see how smart the colleges are. If he’s back coaching within the year that tells you that the colleges don’t give a damn about their players their staff and humanity. They are more concerned about winning and getting money. And that is a sad comment.
I think you’re conflating the way you “wish” the world was and the reality of the way the world is… I wouldn’t be surprise one bit if he was hired tomorrow.
@@drewjoaquin4761 you might be right. It will cost that school a lot of money. They better have a good team of lawyers.
The way he left Florida (“I’ll stay as long as Florida will have me” & “it would be a travesty for me to coach at any other school” then bolting a matter of months later, only to go to Ohio State less than a year after that… and don’t get me started on the Aaron Hernandez stuff), the way he left Ohio State, now his antics at Jacksonville… this is not new behavior. He has a history of saying one thing and doing another, and people ignored it because he won championships. Now we shouldn’t wonder how we got to this point. I agree, he doesn’t need to be coaching anyone ever again. Coaching is more than X’s and O’s. We need to live like character counts instead of just saying it does.
He had a medical condition
What stewpid comments
Anyone who hires this man needs help. He needs help.
@@GMAMEC aaron hernandz isajhettothug
@@casi2l bullshit he didn’t want to deal with the heat
HE HAS NOT PROVEN HE CAN LEAD MEN!!! HIS EQUALS, sure he can scare some boy in to winning, but Lead men NO!!!
The jags are garbage. They not going to be winning for years
@@deon3133 Right lol
I don't think it will happen but I think the college where he was coach needs to investigate if he was abusive to staff and players there. How did he think kicking somebody was okay unless he's done that type of stuff before?
I agree
The stories will come out now
Urban Meyer needs counseling,but he's too arrogant to go get help.He absolutely see nothing wrong because its how he's operated since college.
Oh please he’ll be hired for a head coaching job in college inside of a year, there are a million small college programs who would love to have him
Agree 100%, if he still wants to coach someone will hire him. Love him or hate him he wins consistently at the college level. Some AD at a 4-8 program will gladly hire him if it'll push the team to 10-2 within a season.
There isn’t a major university in the world that would hire him now. What athletic director or university president is going to gamble their reputation and career on Urb? That would be career suicide. You guys are out of your mind if you think he’s going to coach again.
No way Urban Meyer is going to coach at a small-time program again after coaching Florida and Ohio State. I don't think his ego would allow it.
@@apierre6 He won't have a choice. No Division 1 college is going to even consider him. A Division 2 or Division 3 school is going to consider him at some point.
@@apierre6 exactly 👏
Off to the broadcast booth
No doubt some SEC or shitty big program is gonna absolutely open the bank for him no matter what
He will coach in college again. Give it two years.
The January insurrection proved that America will forgive anything. Anything.
@@ricbradley5323 the blm riots and antifa terrorism in front of white house also proved america will forgive anything
Exactly
@@ricbradley5323 what about the 100 riots in every city over the summer
@@ricbradley5323 you mean the January trespass the media sensationalized? Lmao
I hope the owner is able to get some of the money back 🤦🏿 That’s when owners play favoritism for a coach 🤮🤮
To me the whole thing sounded like he bit off a bit much. The last couple incidents sounded like he was ready to get fired. He’s willing to do whatever he can to win but it didn’t translate to the NFL.
His public image is ruined. It doesn't matter his credentials as college coach, no young athlete would put his career at his disposal after witness the lack of professionalism he showed at Jacksonville.
Meyer will be lucky if he gets a TV job but really doubt it.
All these folks assuming a college team won't hire Urb must think the NCAA has morals. Remember, Penn State avoided the death penalty even after everything that came out involving Sandusky and Joe Pa. It's about money and trophies in this sport...
After what happened to SMU I doubt the NCAA will give a school the death penalty ever again
@@ericthomas917 If any program deserved it, it was PSU...
For people saying he will coach in college again, he was not trying to coach in college before this. He was on TV. He may not even want to coach at this point.
He’ll end up at Cincinnati in a year or two, after Luke leaves. Then after 2-3 winning years, he’ll be back at another big university
Not sure, people take abuse seriously now
Luke Fickell is not leaving. Cincinnati going to big 12 power 5 he can get bids to playoff without controversy now no reason to leave. Big 12 will be Baylor, OK State , Cincy.
Cincinnati don't need him
@@rosedalepark78 true, but he can get bigger contract at a bigger school that will have more resources than Cincinnati ever will. I hope he stays, but everyone has a price.
The thin line between influential and powerful
A big-time college may want to hire him in the near future,...but I don't think they will, his level of damage surpasses the others. About the only person that spoke well of Meyer is the coach that's replacing him. He didn't just damage the man,...he damaged his brand.
where is the video of this vicious kick
Hearing Urban say "im the head ball coach" has apparently changed Chris life lmfao he loves to say it now too
urban will coach again, wouldn't be surprise if it was in the next college season
What parents will send kids to him now?
He's not worth it
@@itsjob595 Ones who are desperate for kids to be NFL stars. People do some crazy stuff out of desperation.
Sadly, you are correct.......Urban Meyer, Football = Bobby Knight, Basketball.
I hope that SOB never gets another job coaching anywhere ever!
Never listened to many radio shows before but I will seek this one out.
Everyone thought Rick Pitino was done after that scandal in Louisville and he got hired at Iona so yes sadly with all that baggage Urban Meyer will be back coaching college football.
People need to also be talking about how kicking players isnt approproate at any competitive level. Acting like its only adult nfl players deserve the respect of not being kicled is part of the problem. How many dozens and hundreds of times must he have gotten away with this to be comfortable enough doing it to an nfl player?
I completely agree. People say "these are grown men!" so he can't get away with it. But how about those young adults he coached in the past? The fact that he could get away with it there is a real issue. Just because they have no bargaining power means they have to put up with abuse?
Rob is ABSOLUTELY correct. You cannot hire this guy now.
He wanted to get fired.
He did 🤔why 🤔🤔
Doing all that u may be right
@@juanstepbehind
Look how much $ he got when he got fired.
@@itsjob595 he has not got anything yet. Lawyers are involved
@KC Jones so he took the job to get fired. LOL. He has been to Duval before being the Jags Coach
First time I EVER agreed with Rob
Bruh...ain't no way he's unhirable
Stop it....I don't like his character...but he ain't kill nobody🤨. He didnt rape, kidnap, or anything in that way
@@naklovesjesus3204 If someone does those things you named they should be locked tf up, being 'unhirable' is way more broad than those actions tho, dude has a history of supporting a dude with racial issues in the past and another who beat his wife dude, not to mention the guy cheated on his wife too, at some point he gotta get his act together because the people you hang around are a reflection of who u are and what u do
@@Xiondest
Oh i understand. But just because I don't like his character, that won't make him unhirable. There are ppl doing a lot worse, but because they make companies plenty of money ....they are still employed.
And Urban makes his colleges ....PLENTY of MONEY💲💲
Chaka Kahn to Oscar Myer....... I feel for you.🥸🥸
Rob called it Urban needs to be fire.
They Called it yesterday 💯
He'll get hired again at the college level. Maybe not now, but eventually he will.
Chris is so well versed in the B.S.
As long as the Good ol boy network still alive and well Urban Meyer will get another College HC job
So Chris says use the ‘lying card’ in a few years and he’d get another high paying job 🙄🙄🤔
He shouldn't get another job in sports period...go home and stay there is his best bet💯🤦🏾♂️
Oklahoma is on the phone with his agent AS WE SPEAK ! So is Texas, LSU and any other school that wants to compete.
Hire a racist coach? Kick players? Get a dance from a young chick? Try to get your old buddies a job?
He's perfect for college football!
He lost games. Chances are, if he had shown progress, his flaws would have been overlooked just like they had for years.
His behavior was never going to lead to wins. Free Agents with options would not go there and no decent coach would want to work for him
Urban obviously has a hole where his humility and character should be. He humiliated his wife, allowed felons to run rampant at Florida, kicked his kicker, etc. I wouldn't hire him to coach my high school team. That had to be the most spectacular crash and burn in NFL coaching history.
He'll be called by every big college and all the wanna bee's beginning right about
NOW!
He’ll coach again… Tons of famous people out there who’ve done terrible things and the public, given enough time and apologies, have gotten over their offensive behavior. The man is one of the best college coaches of all time. Someone will eventually want him.
There are a number of teams that will be calling him when all this blows over
"Disrespectful to his wife" comment is a joke.......Current NFL players, coaches and staff have never had marital indiscretions!!!!
Who takes rob Parker views on anything seriously anymore??
Urban Meyer was a great college coach he can still get a job in doesn't matter what these guys say
How do you know?
@@C-Note-to6vk he track record as a college coach look it up its great
@@Alphasports576 he will be back...this will be forgotten next week when Aaron Rogers says or does something. Football at all levels is about winning, even in high schools when parents get upset if their kids are not playing..the coach will tell them its about winning!!🏈🤨'America loves a winner, and will not tolerate a loser' General Patton..US Army.
Art Briles hasn’t returned to college coaching. Urban is 10x better the coach but he also has 10x larger the target and attention on him. I don’t think Urban’s ego will allow him to go somewhere that he can’t get top recruits. He’s never been known to be the best X’s and O’s guy so not having the recruiting will be a massive obstacle for him. He’ll also be one college player speaking up away from the school getting a lawsuit, that might not be a big deal with a top program but it would be for a smaller program.
Art Briles ain’t win multiple nattys
@@williewest2998 you didn’t see the comment saying Urban is 10x better? The recruiting goes hand in hand with winning national championships. He will not dominate with recruiting anymore.
Remember when Woody Hayes punched a player? He was banned for life
Woody Hayes never tried to get an NFL coaching job. I wonder if he tried would he have gotten one. An interesting question.
He doesn't like to lose. If there is a chance of losing he starts finding a way out. I said this when the got hired....
You are going to lose more in the NFL than college. If he thought he was going to be Bill B he was stupid as hell
Dude should have pressed charges.
He should have clocked him.
Nobody who wants to keep their job operates the way Urban Meyer was accused of doing concerning his behavior... now his behavior was 'on purpose' and not accidental. Now what happens is, he gets paid and compensated while relaxing and then he'll do the humility role showing the changes he's made so another situation will be his... he'll be a college and even pro coach again but he was coaching Jacksonville... remember, he was a candidate for the Dallas job but Dallas said no... so he's wanted other jobs in the NFL. Once you have a job you don't want, you plot your exit strategy and that's exactly what it appears happened.
No lol... he will be fired for cause without the owner paying him another dime 🙄 No sport contract today doesn't have a morals clause (lap dances) incompetence clause (Jags record) or doesn't cover assault as a firing offense (kicking a player)!!!
With the NIL and the transfer portal... Would you really want to come back to college football? Look at the chaos right now? Look at the coaching carasel? You build a team only to have those key pieces transfer? Coaches are going to quitting and getting fired like crazy. It's cool to watch not be apart of.
All of that is true as far as Division 1 college programs are concerned. What about the lower divisions?
Yu right. I mean can you see him putting on the board the plays like say Andy Reid. No, it look like Meyer just demanded, to win..kick..etc
100% the guy is a narcissistic abusive coward and bully who can't coach at the Pro level and shouldn't be allowed NEAR our young collegiate men! He's also an abominable role model for our youth and the talking heads who say that winning cures everything are just as bad and need to step down.
I think he's done in the pro ranks & the broadcast booth, but some school will take a chance on him, if nothing else for the media coverage.
The last people who’s opinion you want on football is these two. Meyer will be a college football coach again.
How do you know he even wants to coach. Its a widespread opinion he wont coach in college.
@@C-Note-to6vk if he doesn’t so be it but if he did want to coach he could be coaching in college again
Talent can take you places where your character can’t keep you.
This show would be a hell of alot better if chris wasnt on it....
Bulshit you'll see he'll be coaching and let's be honest the people in Jacksonville the media and everybody gave this dude a hard time and wanted him to fail and that is it!
Damn Chris, let Rob speak.
It’s irritating as hell
Talk about losing the locker room. This man arrogance was through the roof
Rob nailed it, Meyer is unhireable, if you have integrity.
Definitely will coach college again.
Oregon would Take Urb. They did Richie Incognito.
This is what happens when a man can dictate other humans who are not in position to stand up for themselves, for such a long time. He's lost touch like an arrogant entitled king.
Karma
We all know how this country works. If he got fired a month ago he would have the Lincoln Riley deal and be USC coach 😂😂😂😂😂
urban Will be hired by the texas longhorns as soon as things go south for steve sarkisian
The question is , Can he recruit?
Urban Meyers is about Urban Meyers, period. Not a leader but a bully!!
Is there any evidence of that kicking act? Were there any witnesses? I wouldn't just believe that happened just because someone says so. You may have a disgruntled kicker lashing out because he may have been cut. There is evidence of the other bad things Urban Meyer did. Those alone got him fired.
The person he kicked was a witness…and where is Urban Meyers denial of the events?
@@dionshaewishum4179 He has already denied kicking the kicker. The kicker wouldn't make a good witness unless he passes a lie detector test. Otherwise, it would be a he said he said scenario.
Don't matter cause he still RICH!!!!🤣🤷🏽♂️
Urban Meyer is a good college coach. He never had the respect of the Jaguar team. It's best that he left. Some college will pick him up.
Drafting a running back in the 1st round 🥶🥶🥶
STOP It, This is a over reaction. Worse men has been rehired. Stop with the lap dance cramp, she was not a younger girl she was a women. How able holding her accountable. She started it. But he did not deserve the NFL job in the 1st place. He should be done in the NFL.
You don’t put your hands on people, plain and simple.
We they acting like they don't know about the go along get along gang remember they look out for each other🤷
When Florida had their winning streak stopped by Alabama and Urban went home and an AMBULANCE HAD TO BE CALLED TO HIS HOUSE. I knew something was not right with the man.
He will coach again. These schools don't care. Bowling Green is still struggling. Won't be surprised if he ends up back there to finish his career. Lots of connections in OH.
If Urb decides he doesn’t want this to be the final say on him as a coach, HE WILL be able to roam a collegiate sideline again in due time.
An AD ain’t gotta explain jack in Corvallis or Pullman!
I've heard this before about Chris Broussard. Kinda ignored it but this confirms that he is a straight up token! He always try to stay in the middle soft ass comments.
With college football players now making money, they have options if they are good, and scholarships don't matter as much. Dictatorial coaches like urban, are gonna become a thing of the past.
rob such a prima donna. a grown man kicked another grown man, so what. fight! it's football. a man got a lap dance, this dude brags about magic city and baby oil every broadcast. any opportunity these dudes get to argue against a man making money, they jump at it
Tell the owner all that
He’s done for… he will never coach or get an analysis job with any of the networks!
He might get a analyst job he go on his best behavior for that
This won't age well
This won't age well
He didn’t not know how hard NFL is he was thinking draft Lawns. That’s all he had to do
1 year, Bowling Green will use the Bobby Patrino playbook and hire Urban. F Urban Meyer.
Well we know he definitely won't in the NFL! 😄
Lower tier SEC schools who are desperate to compete (MSU, SC, Mizzou, and Tenn) would still hire him.
Vanderbilt?
I'd like to agree with you. Chances are, however, some downtrodden college program will pick him up. He wins. Wins = money. Money talks. I'm sure that if Ryan Day were to leave, THE Ohio State University would hire him in a heartbeat. In fact, had Pervin Liar done what he did at JAX while at OSU, they wouldn't care. They'd say things like "Well, that kicker deserved it!" or "His wife must have driven him to that lap dance!" Or "Come on, he was just trying to give that racist coach another chance. Are YOU perfect?" Or how about "Maybe he doesn't HAVE to know everything about all his players. That's why he has assistants. And maybe they ARE losers! Maybe he was right to call them out. Call me cynical, but I could see it happening. That's how it is in Columbus (and in America) these days...
Will Chris and Rob ever go back to the studio? 😂😂😂😂😂
More risky right now then last year ffs
Rob is crazy.... Urban will 100% get another college job if he wants to.....maybe sits out next year but someone will absolutely get another chance.....after everything Bobby Pitrino did he got another chance....and he is 10% of the coach Urban is.
Thank you
Urban worse
Urban abusing players is hard to come back from.
You think his ego will allow himself to go to a smaller school and not get recruits like he can at a Florida or Ohio State? No way.
@@ishanray who said anything about a small school....I just used Pitrino as an example but I don't think Urban will have to go small
Someone need’s to introduce Rob to who Jerry Jones is…. There’s a ton of college’s that would hire him. This is America man people will take the publicity bad or good to make them ends and we are always willing to set aside someone’s bad traits as long as they’re winning
Oklahoma …
He can go work at subways.
That's for you people. He'll be fine, he was a great college coach.
He won’t need it he’s got probably 20-30 million coming to him from the jaguars owner
You people 🤔
@@juanstepbehind yea sounded kind of racist he needs to clear that up
Lol im eating an All American Sub right now! Maybe Urban can serve me next time😁
