I would take the Ol Ball Coach over the Drama Queen Meyer 100 times out of 100. He had no sustaining power; Spurrier did for 12 years. How long did Urban last at any one school?

No. Florida was an established power when Meyer took over because the Zooker could recruit and left Meyer with a loaded roster. Spurrier had to change the "wait till next year" attitude among fans and players and build the program up, and left Zook with great players who unfortunately he just was not HC material. A GOAT does not have an undisciplined team. Meyer was and is the GDQOAT (Greatest Drama Queen Of ALL Time).

That isn't Meyer's fault. He didn't hire Muschamp.

I love Spurrier and what he did for us but if the goal is winning national championships I'll take 2 over 1 in half as much time.
And leave us with nothing since. Sure you would. It could be argued that Meyer is the reason we are where we are today; a broken program.

urbs 1st 4 seasons were pretty phenomenal, but in year 5 we struggled in almost every game and bammer blew us out- that is when he quit and we should have let him go- his 6th season he was just there but did not due much other than stand on the sidelines with his hands on his thighs just about his knees- he was totally tuned out
