stuvian Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 I am surprised by this. I always thought he was leveraging the Jags for a bigger market job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Fascinated by this hire. Am led to believe Scott Linehan is his first choice for OC and he was in on Dan Quinn for DC before he signed with Dallas. That is noteworthy because both Linehan and Dan Quinn were on Nick Saban's first staff in Miami. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 1 minute ago, Big Turk said: What long term College coach other than Pete Carroll has had any real recent success in the NFL? And Pete Carroll was an NFL head coach before he was a college head coach. Urban is an excellent coach and believe me I am no fan of Urban the man. He is a leader and a CEO who will let everyone in Jacksonville know who is running the show. I think they needed that. He gets Trevor Lawrence too, so he has a chance to succeed. I am glad it isn't the Bills taking the risk but I am looking forward to seeing how this thing works.... or doesn't as the case may be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 If I’m one of the dozen Jags fans, I’m NOT excited by this. You can’t “out-recruit” because of the Jags name in the NFL. It’s the pros, new ballgame. He might be just fine, but how long is he going to last? His track record says not all that long before he’s retired again, for whatever reason. NEVER in a million years would I trade McD for Meyer. I feel like we have a real and long term solution. They have a short term big splash, IMO. 9 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted January 15, 2021 Author Share Posted January 15, 2021 Personally I don’t like how this impacts my Big Noon Kickoff on Fox. He was great on TV. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Meyer thought the pressure and workload of college football was too much he has another thing coming in the NFL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigvinny Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Bills play in Jville next season. Easy 3 hour drive from SC. Saw a few Bills games there. The 1pm September games are brutally hot though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea if it will work for Meyer... but I do like the hire. I think the Jags desperately needed a sheriff in town and Urban is gonna be that without question. If Trevor Lawrence is as good as we think he has every chance to make it work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
