If you're family's wellbeing was in jeopardy would be my only guess given he is a murderer.

But sadly IMO, this was a case of chasing a title.

Thinking today that this could in some way resemble PSU, as far as Urban and his knowledge. If there could be proof provided he knew anything about shootings and such while Hernandez was his player and turned a blind eye, to me he holds some responsibility for what has happened after the fact. The fact he turned a blind eye allowed Hernandez to have future victims. In a way just like the PSU admin did.

Ohio State's top pass-rusher wasn't on the flight with the team to the Discover Orange Bowl, but there is still a chance Noah Spence could play in the game as he deals with "personal issues."

I just saw numerous comments on stories where people were saying it. Nothing substantiated.

Someone on a B1G forum is saying Spence was a PED case, something GNC related, not prescribed or some nonsense. Weed seems more likely, I've heard that rumor more. I did hear that the B1G tested all the players before the bowl games to make sure everyone was eligible.

If that really is what Bullough did...man IDK.

coaches lack creativity...so many ways to teach the kid a lesson w/o suspending him. ESPN interview, followed by film of him doing service work, starting with cleaning his own dookey...come on, that's way more powerful than simply sitting at home and concocting some BS story. Make him own it. The best lesson you could teach a kid is that EVERYTHING you do needs to be framed in your own mind as if it will be front page news. Would I do this if I knew everyone else would know I did it?

Of course kids will fail at this...and often the allure of potty humor is too strong to overcome, but you don't miss an opportunity to show what it means to be a public figure and mess up...they need to know...IMHO

I like the way you think...owning their mistakes, being held accountable, consequences for action. These are all novel concepts.

A few years ago, when Urban Meyer was the coach of the Florida Gators, I remember talking to NFL Hall-of-Famer and Gator legend Jack Youngblood about UF's football coach.

Youngblood then considered himself a close friend of Meyer's and used words like "integrity" and "class" to describe Meyer's philosophy of coaching.

Not anymore.

Youngblood, a guest on our Open Mike radio show Wednesday, had nothing nice to say about Meyer, the type of athletes Meyer recruited to UF or how Meyer departed Gainesville and became the coach at Ohio State. Like many Gators, Youngblood said he was "very much" disappointed in the way Meyer bolted UF.

You remember, right?

Meyer said he was leaving UF because he needed a break and wanted to spend more time with his family. A few weeks later, after getting a $1 million going-away bonus from UF, he was travelling the country as a college football analyst for ESPN. A few months later, Meyer was accepting the head-coaching job at Ohio State.

"When somebody tells me something to my face, I expect it to be truth," Youngblood said of Meyer. "When it turns out not to be the truth, that doesn't (put him) very high on my Christmas card list."

Youngblood, a Central Florida resident, then alluded to all of the players that were arrested in Meyer's tenure at UF and agreed that Meyer "used" the goodness of Tim Tebow and rode Tebow's coattails to the moral high ground.

"He (Meyer) said character was the No. 1 thing and the main thing he was recruiting on," Youngblood said. "That didn't happen. And then all of the stuff at the end of (his UF stint), there just was just no consistency to me."

Jack Youngblood, a Gator legend, proves the point of the Orlando Sentinel, which last year named Meyer the most hated coach in the history of college sports.

Think about it:

What other coach is so hated by the school where he attained

Petrino wasn't/isn't hated by UofL or Arkansas. He may be disliked by the Falcons, but he was only there 3/4 of a season-- a season which in turn, got them Mike Smith and Matt Ryan.

UofL fans knew he wouldn't stay there forever and he left town for an NFL gig. Hard to blame the guy. And for whatever it's worth, his flirtation with Auburn never came to fruition. Arkansas fans wish he didn't screw up, but they see the reason(s) why he had to go.

Now, no doubt Petrino is a divisive figure and a loser of a person, but Arkansas would love to have him back and UofL is excited to have him back.

If that's true that Arkansas would want him back, I'm not sure what to say. I'm sure there are some that don't care and would forget about that travesty, but I bet they're are a hell of a lot that despise him for it.

I mentioned him because they're are a hell of a lot of people (most?) in Florida who still idolize Urby... championships and everything.
