Urban Meyer out as Jaguars head coach

[Bigdog]

Not fair. They didn't even give him a full season and at least a part of a second one to turn it around. It's absolute BS when they fire a coach for losing with a previously losing team after 1 season or less. A coach should get a minimum two years, (usually they get three) to turn around the trajectory of a losing franchise.

This is not the Cowboys where it took 11 years to let go of JG. The Jags process is quicker than ours I guess.

This is going to make teams even more averse to hiring college coaches. The track record was already atrocious.

He wasn’t fired for losing.

 

[CowboysDrew]

So he's available?

It's never about a group like "college coachs" it is about individuals.

I remember many posters here wanted jerry to hire him lol.

They fired him for acting like a crazy person. You really have not heard what’s been happening with him ? He’s lost his mind.

 

[reddyuta]

he is loser who couldn't deal with adversity and a poor Squad despite knowing it will take time to build a good team around Lawrence.

After a loss this year he did not fly back with team. He stayed and partied all night with young women at a bar ( he’s married ).
At another time he lined up his coaches and called them all losers and that he was a winner. Then he went on to make each coach list the reasons he isn’t a loser in front of everyone else.

and yeah the kicker

The guy was just intolerable, it wasn't about his success. If you followed what's going on there, you would have come to the same conclusion.

Now there are always two sides of every story, but his PCs were just aweful. And if he was anything like that in the locker room, it's understandable noone wanted to work with him anymore.

I think if Rhuel can get a QB, he could have a good run in Carolina

 

[Ranched]

LOL. I would love to call out the members who wanted him for the Cowboys HC. But, it's the holidays!

MEANWHILE....

 

[lukin2006]

He is a lowlife.

 

[lukin2006]

Count me as one who wanted Dallas to hire him. Glad we dodged that bullet. At what point did Meyer think it was ok for a boss to kick an employee. He needs to go get some serious help…but I have no doubt that there is some college team desperate to win who will hire him.

I’m a Michigan fan and at least Jim Harbaugh has class…

 

[The Quest for Six]

Well, that tenure didn't last long!!! Thank God Jerry didn't sign him as the head coach.....

The Jacksonville Jaguars fired head coach Urban Meyer late Wednesday night amid a turbulent and tumultuous first season for Meyer in the NFL.
