Urban Meyer Hired. It's official!

Shad said during his day one press conference he wanted a Jaguars game ticket to be the hottest ticket in the league...well a Lawrence and Urban duo is the closest we could come to doing that.

I am very less than enthused about the rumored GM and OC candidates though. Urban with a side of Baalke and Linehan would take a whole lot of the luster away.


Not only that but Trevor will bring the Clemson fan base with him and Urban the Gator and Buckeye fanbase with him and all 3 fanbases are huge.

The Jags have been a losing culture since Khan purchased the team with that one blip in 2017. I think it's time to tear the whole house down.  I would not be against the Jags releasing or trading the old players in the locker room. We need a complete refresh.

Can we please have Corrine Brown introduce him tomorrow??? Not sure if she is jail. But hearing her say “head Corche Urban Meyas,” would make everything worth it.

Were apparently on different pages.  I was just trying to thwart your attempts to keep mikesez around.  I’m not 100% on board with Meyer, but am optimistic about it. Also optimistic about he and TL and the future of the team/city/fan base.
Im staying optimistic at best. No one roots to fail.

As a Gator Fan, im pretty sure he is top 3 in our most hated coaches list. Yay championship, boo disaster he swept under the rug we unearthed when he quit on us.

Coaching is one thing, but we don't know anything about Meyer's ability to scout and draft NFL talent/manage the salary cap. It's looking like he'll be making most of those decisions, since he'll basically be picking his own GM. The GM will obviously answer to Meyer if he's the one picking him.

Hes not going to be able to simply recruit the best players across the country like he could in College. The NFL is a completely different beast.

Yes, he'll be the strength and conditioning coach.

I am not so sure the nfl is a completely different beast.  Yes it is different but i still believe players want to win and if you can build a winning culture I think you can retain your good players easier and attract free agents.

We have been down those roads and can speak for some of those difficulties.

I'm talking about drafting those good players. You can't retain good players until you draft them first and that's what I'm talking about. We don't know if he's any good at identifying and drafting NFL talent. 

He could be just like Coughlin for all we know. Great coach, but ultimately runs the team into the ground due to being awful at identifying talent and managing the cap.

Thank you Shad for making a BIG BOY move and not listening to us country bumpkins who want the team ran like a HS team!

Dear Shad, just stuck around a wee bit longer, once we get these crusty guys who wish it was still the 60s outta here, you can modernize this city and team with things like Lot J, controversial players who toot their own horn so they're not overlooked like Fred Taylor, and perhaps a vibrant downtown!

It'll be a challenging sale because crustiness has a way of being passed down, but there are those of us who realize the 60s are gone and never coming back. And like the Army motto, "Always Forward".

Sincerely,

Fans who are ready for the 21st Century

All indications point to it being Baalke. Big ole yikers. This tells me Urban has a lot of roster control. This is either going to go extremely well or be a complete dumpster fire, time will tell.

Where would he get that from? Meyer ran a hybrid 4-3 at Ohio State.

Meyer didn't run the defense and I dont think he got that from anyone.  I'm guessing he's just throwing it out there and would probably like to go to the 3-4
