Is anyone else Dumbfounded by gator fans?

  • For the last like 7 years multiple teams have been telling Gator fans how dirty Meyer is.

    Guys like Easley, Floyde, Elam...all results of Meyer being shady as hell.

    Now Meyer goes to OSU and this stuff about Meyer and Diggs comes out...

    Gator fans are going "OMG you won't believe how dirty this guy recruits!"

    Yah, we would. We've been telling you this for years now. He's a way-shady guy on the recruiting trail. This isn't something new...you guys just had your heads in the sand.

    not really.

    Meyer was UF's coach for 6 years, won them 2 titles. Of course they are going to support their guy. They were blinded.

    Hell, I was blinded when DickHead was coaching at Michigan. I didn't want to believe that he was some dumb hillbilly from West Virginia with a gimmicky system that couldn't recruit, didn't give a shit about defense, banged cheerleaders and co-eds, bent the rules, and was just a piece of shit in general.

    Goes with the territory man. Fans are going to support their coaches. Just the way it goes.

    I am more dumbfounded at Ohio State fans going full retard over Meyer though, because most of them straight up HATED his ass. Especially after the ass-whooping he gave them in the BCS title game in 2006 and after he basically stole Shariff Floyd from them by telling Sharrif he had a dream that GOD, yes GOD, told him he had to coach Shariff in college, and that Urbs would rather DIE, yes, DIE coaching Sharrif than stop coaching college football. OSU fans RIPPED him to shreds after that fiasco.

    Now they suck him off at EVERY opportunity they get.

    it's crazy, because they straight up HATED him after the Sharrif Floyd thing went down. I mean they hated him and talked shit about him like they do Hoke/Michigan right now. In fact, it might have even been worse.

    It'd be like if Belien was fired or let go and then Michigan hired John Calipari to coach basketball and the Michigan fan base started losing their damn minds and worshiping him as a god. IDGAF how good of a coach he is or how many Final 4's or Championships he's won....do not want. It's like a really hot chick with lots of STD's. Yeah, she's hot, but she's still got a used up puss and STD's. That's Urban Meyer. A used up chick with multiple STD's.

  • I could care less that UF fans didn't care how he was while he was winning championships. I'm with everyone else... its the OSU fans that are pretending they didn't hate him 10 months ago.

    VegasTide

  • You guys are missing my point.

    What's puzzling is not that they supported him despite what others said, it's that they are acting like this is new wtf news concerning diggs.

    Everyone else just sees it as par for the course.

  • i like how a couple retard fans from a fan base represent the whole fan base. well these fans are assholes, no these fans are gullible. florida fans got screwed over and used as a stepping stone for a man to do better. osu fans are on cloud 9 bc they got a coach who they think is the 2nd coming. can't really blame either side for feeling the way they feel, but i think we all know this is what it is. frankly i'm glad meyer and his staff are gone bc they weren't doing anything for us at the end. aside from a handful of players, everybody he left us either got in trouble or was overrated and then the terrible coaching on top of it was the icing on the cake.

    You're kidding yourself if you don't think other fanbases would act the same way.

  • Nothing new. Homers defend their coach. Look how OSU fans are now defending Meyer.

    dpfenny

  • i defended and supported Lane Kiffin when he was "our " coach but as soon as his arse hit the door i was absolutely shocked by his behavior and wouldnt believe anyone would hire the guy . Now that i have calmed down i have to admit that the guy seems to be a pretty good coach and one heck of a recruiter ...kinda goes with the territoryshrug i guess

    Kiffin is still a POS Shoe, up there with Petrino IMO.

    But yeh everyone defends their coach it's how it is. Everyone has some homer in them, and until they have no reason to blindly support a guy, they will do anything to defend him.

    Until Rich got canned I was convinced he got a raw deal. Luckily Dave Brandon was running the program not me, that's why he got paid the big bucks evidently.

  • guess you are right but the guy seems to be doing a pretty good job at SC so far and do think the guy has changed since he arrived at SC vs. the crap he was pulling when he was coaching at UT . Funny how he is now bud's with Coach Meyer but while they coached againest each other in the SEC they hated each other with a passion

    We will see what happens after Barkely leaves. I hope he falls flat on his face.

    I always have liked Tennessee, and the chit that guy pulled was appalling. Is his kid still named Knox? What an arrogant idiot that guy is.

  • I'm a realist about things. I have no homerism in me whatsoever.

    If there is one thing i know for sure it's that Tressel was the cleanest coach in America, and Meyer now has that title because Tress is no longer coaching.

    no doubt and agree with you totally , he does have some amazing assist coaches that he has working for him as well

    Lane was with us before...and he didn't pull the stuff at SC he did while at Tennessee. Young and brash accounts for a lot of it, but I can assure you, when he was brought back, he understood that that behavior would not be tolerated. Pat Haden agreeing to take a step down from his career to become the AD at USC in her time of need, assures that there will be no tolerance for scandal or improprieties by the coaching staff or players without consequences.

    Lane still says to this day that he would not have left Tennessee for any other job save the USC job. he admits he made mistakes.

    Hopefully, Tee Martin can spend a few years with us, gain experience coaching in a big program, then we can send him home prepared to coach at his Alma Mater. Maybe that will make that whole situation in TN even out.

    Did you support Bobby and other FSU coaches when the 'AA was hitting them with probation?

    Also, Elam was a Gator long before his FSU picture day and Easley tried to commit to UF twice before the UA game.

    Come on every coach has his area's of shadiness. Not sure they go as far as Blake and Trooper but ALL staff have guys that bend it...ask Eddie Gran why he was banned from Palm Bay HS and Dillard or Hostess gate.

    Man you guys got hosed bad with your two National Championships.

  • I'm one of the few that still admit hating Meyer a year ago mostly due to the whipping in the NC game. I also strongly stand behind my statement that I will not LIKE him unless/until he wins two NC at OSU.

    At the same time, he is our coach now. I can't continue to HATE him obviously. You live with what you got. We don't make the decisions of who is hired.

    If I had a choice, I would still have JT coaching us. I guess I'm a blinded homer idiot there too!!

    Buckeyes are not exactly known for being shy about talking outrageous smack - I won a $500 bet against you BIG-10 homers, lol.

    So, because of that very vocal smack talk against CUM all those years he was at Florida, just opens you guys up for the laughter of others at your fanbase's about face!

    It should be noted, there is only one Buckeye in this thread who looks the fool...you sir, are guilty of nothing more than honesty.

    Again,

    You and many others in this thread are missing my point.

    Im not surprised that UF fans supported Meyer while he was at UF...Not sure why you guys can't get that through your heads.

    Im surprised that UF fans are acting like the things Meyer is doing now are such a surprise...

    Like..."WTF? Did you guys know Meyer was Lying to Diggs? I can't believe he'd do that!"

    Meanwhile...everyone else has known this for...uh...4 or 5 years now?

    And about Elam:

    He was a Gator, but towards the end he realize he had a better opportunity at FSU and he was only into UF because he wanted to play for Urban, and then Urban lied his face off about coming back and staying to coach him then quit within a year of telling Elam he'd be there to coach him.

    If Elam knew Meyer wasn't going to be at UF he would have gone to FSU.
