jshawaii22 wrote:Typically dramatically overblown situation, but stupid, stupid of (almost no longer) Coach Meyer to go to a bar after his 4th loss in his former home in Ohio and allow unkown guests at the bar to cajole him into taking selfies and dancing. He deserves what he gets from the attack at all costs media and 'fans'.
I'll bet he travels with the team from this point on. Let the grandkids Skype him.

Got a feeling this is not going to end well for him. 0-4 and then this lapse in judgement is going to give him a very short leash and might give him an abbreviated marriage as well.

Hawktawk wrote:I really wonder how a tool like Meyer ever got this chance anyway . He may know his Xs and Os but when you’re erupting after preseason losses you’re clearly too thin skinned for the league . As for the owner standing behind him I think it’s the dreaded vote of confidence . Khan was furious . I’m guessing a few more losses or meltdowns he’s gone .
Hawktawk wrote:Rd it’s a forum . It’s a topic you shared although I was prepared to . When you post a confusing post that is tone deaf to the significance of this despite acknowledging it was wrong at the very end and I respond that’s not “ sticking my nose in it “ you need a chill pill my friend . Your probably my most kindred spirit on the forum but you’re getting a bit cranky at a minimum .

Hawktawk wrote:RD what I meant by tone deaf is suggesting this is harmless behavior on any level . Even in a generic husband wife scenario grabbing some co Ed booty while wife is not around is extremely bad behavior . Add all that Urban Meyer is responsible for , his record so far to be in this situation is very damaging , not harmless . It doesn’t need to be illegal to be very wrong and harmful.
Hawktawk wrote:Aside from that you document all the issues with the guy . Did you catch his presser a couple weeks ago when asked about the USC opening ?. He looked for all the world like a guy undergoing a colonoscopy while he tried to reassure the Jags he was here to “ build a culture “ horrible body language from an accomplished liar . I really don’t know what Khan is waiting for at this point . Give Schottie a shot!

Meyer, to me seemed like he wanted the position but doesn't want to do all of the work the NFL requires to keep the respect of the veterans.
What works for kids doesn't usually work for mature people trying to make a living or set themselves up for life.
Hawktawk wrote:It isn’t just Doyle either . He repeatedly covered for a coach who had beaten his wife and defended the guy as some reformed saint when he was exposed . Same as Doyle . It’s in hindsight we learned he covered for Aaron Hernandez drug use and according to some people he was aware he was involved in a drive by shooting . How history might have changed if he hadn’t kicked the can down the road . Even his departure citing burnout and a wish to spend time with his family seemed more like a guy who lost Tebow , Hernandez , Harvin etc and didn’t replace them and wanted out of a fading program. Seeing his career trajectory since it’s obvious that’s what it was . Now hes saying he just happened to be at dinner and seeing the grandkids and blah blah blah which don’t explain that hand on the young girlsbehind . For that matter I can it imagine another HC who would stay behind his 0-4 team.
I’m tellin ya. I don’t know what Khan is waiting for . Brian Schottenheimer interim head coach . Meyer will sign with USC immediately anyway .
Hawktawk wrote:My point in running through the various incidents in meyers career is to demonstrate the lack of character of the man . It’s pretty easy to assume he’s told lies about this latest episode . When there’s a question if he even had permission to miss the flight one can only image the rest of the story . Last I saw they were on their way to 0-5. The locker room has been gone from day one . Time for Khan to cut his losses .
Hawktawk wrote:Jags win . Meyer wins coaching matchup as dolphins fail on 4th down and jags hit a 9 yard pass with 1 second left to hit a long fg. Did it save Meyer ? It was speculated they would make the move after this game were they to do so. Lawrence is gonna be special.

If so, I think he gets a longer leash than others might, but inevitably Meyer will be canned as his record isn't great and he's embarrassed the franchise.
As well, there are stories that veteran players were laughing when he talked to them after staying in Ohio after the loss. If he's lost the team then
removal isn't far behind.

coaches and said something like ‘What have you ever won in your career?’
Things seem to be spinning out of control again.
