Heard Urban talking mighty big the other day on the radio.

Just talking about going "undefeated" this year. Sounded mighty sure of himself.

Not possible. You misunderstood or it was way out of context. He's not dumb, and a very adept speaker. He never talks about wins in that sense.

Here's a good blurb from Gatorbait mag:

But I did probe Meyer to see if he or his players had set any team goals for the upcoming season yet. It ?s a standard question because most coaches do establish those standards early partly as motivational carrots for the players during the long, arduous summer ? both Steve Spurrier and Ron Zook did. But as we learn just about every day, Meyer is not like the majority in his fraternity. ? We don ?t do that, ? Meyer said about laying out a laundry list of team goals. ? I ?ve been in programs where we did that and I was always concerned because I saw it bite us. ? We want to win every game. ? Of course you do. ? We want to win the national championship. ? Of course you do. But what happens if something happens early in the year? What are you playing for? Do you just forget about that nice goal board? You have those goal boards printed up. No.
The one thing we want to do is compete for an SEC championship in November ( actually early December). That ?s the thing I always talk to ? em about.
? I ?ve said this before ? my personal goal is I want to be the one school that everybody wants to be like, because of discipline, because of our style of play, because of our great players, because of our fans, because of our student body. So what ?s my goal ? That. What ?s the team goal ? Compete for SEC championships".

So JB. You have nothing nice to say - so you say nothing at all?


I can respect that.

Good luck - should be a classic. Got tix?

If you're not a Gator, you're Gatorbait.

You guys have some awfully lofty expectations for a first-year coach. Yes, he is a good coach. Yes, he has much talent (thanks to Zook). But it takes time to put in a system and get everyone on the same page. His offense is about as different from Zook's as you can get. How will Leak respond?

But it's important to remember that UF ain't Utah and the SEC ain't the MWC.

Ultimately, I think he will succeed. But I get the feeling that if he doesn't win 10 games and make it to Atlanta, you guys are going to crucify him.

At any rate, I will be in Bryant-Denny on October 1 watching Brodie Croyle carve up the UF defense. Email me if you come to town. I'll gladly buy you a beer so you can drown your sorrows ;-)
