Urban Meyer Stepping Down

Per the ESPN story:

"Meyer has been to the hospital multiple times since suffering chest pains after the SEC title game, a Florida source told ESPN. He has been diagnosed with a heart valve muscle defect, the source said.

The problem is not life threatening, a Florida source with knowledge of the situation told ESPN's Chris Mortensen. The same source said Meyer will remain in Gainesville in a non-coaching role to be defined later."

actually, please refer to my post about 1 minute after the one referenced above.

That's not what JJ's looking for. Plus, he's under contract for 5 more years or something like that. I would imagine there is quite a hefty buyout provision built in if he were to choose to leave for another coaching position.

how bout the other JJ? The one retired, living in south Florida? Would he go slum it in Gainesville?

what do the folks paying that salary have to say about this?

Petersen or Stoops. If Stoops leaves OU do they go after Sumlin?
