    “Then even stranger and what I felt potentially more damaging was his reversal and saying I will stay but give most coaching duties to Steve Addazio. What the heck is this all about??

    My initial thought was to tell Urban thanks, but no thanks and here is why. A lot of times when coaches have indecision it can cause extreme turmoil especially around recruiting time. I thought if Urban keeps jumping on and off it would cost us our entire off season recruiting as well as hurt what we have built already.”

    Sorry, but I have to call you on what you said above.

    For your information, and in spite of what those hacks at the “Slantinel” think, Coach Meyer is NOT a “job flip-flopper”! So what if he retracted his earlier decision to resign – luckily he did that before everything became final and when he came to realize what negative implications could have come to Florida football had he decided to walk away for good. IMHO He made the right decision to come back, despite the wishful thinking of those who despise him or the well-outnumbered few who still want SOS to come back.

    Kindly tell me exactly how “damaging” it was when Meyer decided to come back and put Addazio in charge while he took his LOA. As far as I see it there was no damage done, especially where bringing in the #1 ranked recruiting class for 2010 is concerned and the fact that we didn’t suffer drastic attrition post-season based on the total number of underclassmen declaring for the NFL draft. I’ll be expecting your answer.

    “This brings me to present day in the Gator Nation. Urban Meyer saying he was going to stay and actually seeing him get involved and start taking control of this team again were two totally different things.”

    Again I need ot call you out.

    How in the HELL are these “two totally different things”? How has he ever NOT been involved with this team and not been in control? Even though he was on a leave of absense, he still maintained some influence on what went on, especially where recruiting and the hiring of replacements to his staff were concerned. Even though he scaled back his duties somewhat and wasn’t in the office, he was, and still is, in charge of the Gator football program.

    It seems to me you don’t know what the hell you’re talking about.
