Who else is pumped to see what old Urban "I've got a headache, I think I need to retire" Meyer isn't ready for?

There's nothing in that article that paints Meyer in a bad light. I don't like the guy, but damn, at least get your facts right in your hatchet job headlines.

Everyone? The crazy part is Khan hired a guy to take control during the most critical years the team has had since inception and the guy has no clue about the NFL. I want to believe the Jags can overcome that, but it looks to me like a case of if the team does well it will be because the coordinators are great, which opens the team up to having its actual leadership pulled out from under it.

Everyone, who is reasonable, fully expected a coach with no NFL experience to encounter unfamiliar processes along the way. This is not a big deal.

I’m sorry, I’m not seeing an issue here. Obviously he has to learn things. He has more than enough support staff with experience where this is not remotely a problem.
And what he said was true, it is stupid to have to make multi million dollar acquisitions without having met or spent any time with the player. I mean that’s just common sense. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!
I'm sure most teams dealt with the same exact issue.
Looks like he handled it the best way any coach or GM could.

How is it deceptive? The guy thought free agency in the NFL was going to be like recruiting teenagers to go play for his college team. As o-line said, he's probably winging this. I remember when Reid was hired by KC in 2013 people on here knew he'd make that team successful because he was a great coach with a track record of NFL success. The Jaguars had the possiblity to make a move like that this offseason and instead hired a quitter with no NFL experience.

Where exactly did Meyer say he wasn't prepared for it? I see where the WRITER says it. I see where Meyer doesn't agree with it. I don't see anyone but the writer saying he wasn't prepared for it. ![]()

You either have very poor reading comprehension, or you are a liar. "Jacksonville Jaguars coach Urban Meyer knew free agency was going to be different from recruiting..." So, does that say he thought it was going to be like recruiting, or that he knew it was going to be different from recruiting? |
