07/18/11 The last thing former coach Urban Meyer did before bolting for his couch at home was leave the Florida Gators with yet another solid recruiting class. The Gators are, however, in a transition state. It's not only with the new coaching staff either. They have brought in track star after track star to play the RB/WR position that Percy Harvin dominated in Gainesville. That trend comes to an end ...

06/05/11 The Ohio State coaching job, which will be the most attractive opening in the country, will be an interesting thing to watch out for after the 2011 season. Defensive coordinator Luke Fickell will get a yearlong audition for the job, and he does appear to be a darkhorse for the job. While Fickell has the easiest chance to impress his bosses as the likely top candidates such as Urban Meyer and Jon ...

05/30/11 Urban Meyer's daughters better be manning their Twitter accounts because their dad is about to get a lot of attention from Ohio State .

Gordon Gee and athletic ...

05/17/11 A few summers ago before speaking to a Gator Club in Jacksonville, then-coach Urban Meyer told a small throng of media one of the worst nightmares that could happen to his program was to have a standout local athlete sign somewhere else and then come back to beat the Gators.

05/13/11 Just about every week in the SEC, there's a so-called "don't miss" game. Some are bigger than others, and some mean more. But the beauty of this league is that every week matters. As former Florida coach Urban Meyer used to say, there's a playoff every week in the SEC. So as we point toward the 2011 season, which games warrant being on the "don't miss" checklist? For starters, there are several ...
05/06/11 And are the Yankees coming to Orlando? Urban Meyer resigns at UF, ostensibly to spend more time with his family, immediately takes a job with ESPN and has seemingly been travelling extensively with his new job ever since.
