First it was Bob Stoops and now it's Urban Meyer's turn. The University of Florida head coach said he has no plans to leave the #1 ranked Gators and will stay as long as they will have him.
Meyer is the second high profile coach to speak about the possible head coaching position at Notre Dame. Meyer said he ahs no intentions of leaving Florida and Stoops said he has not been contacted.
In a recent Fox Sports poll 63% of readers say that Meyer will stay at Florida while 37% said he would be coaching at Notre Dame once Weis is let go. Over 8,500 readers responded to the poll.
I just find it interesting that both of these coaches are on the Irish wish list and Charlie Weis hasn't even been fired yet but they are talking about it.

ReplyDeleteI think Meyer has talked to Billy Donavan enough to know that sometimes that "Dream Job", may not be the choice you need to make. Meyer has it made at Florida. Also take a look at Spurrier with Redskins.
The pressure to fail, is almost as high as it is to win at Notre Dame. The pressure will be far greater at ND, than to continue his success at Florida.
In my opinion, the ND job is no better than the job at Florida, Alabama, LSU, Texas, So Cal or Oklahoma.
But then again, the grass always seems greener somewhere else.
