So the hospitalization and dehydration after his last game was more than reported. Prayers up.

I don’t know why this is a big deal.
The story on ESPN.com came at 56 minutes passed the hour
I posted at 57 minutes passed the hour.
Assuming it took me one minute to post (it did), the story wasn’t there when I immediately came to FR to post.
I frequent ESPN.com more than any other site and know how to find things there.

He must have really neglected his health which does not make a lot of senses due to the fact that he can probably access Shands,the best hospital in the state, for basically free.

Meyer said in statement. “I have ignored my health for years, but recent developments have forced me to re-evaluate my priorities of faith and family.

He is three years and a day younger than I am. A 45 year old is young and I hope his health concerns are resolved.

Could the health reasons be related to trying to replace Tim Teebo?

I’m sorry to hear this. Obviously you are a Gator fan.

I remember the shock and disbelief when Tom Osborne stepped down as the coach of my beloved Huskers. This after winning two national championships in three years (and then winning a third in his final game). I was stunned when this was announced 12 years ago and I still can’t quite beleive it happened.

My heart goes out to you and all Gator fans. Coach Myer is a class act, a real leader of young men and in my opinion the best coach in the college game at this point. I hope your team does not experience the same turmoil as mine has, especially since 2001. It has been a real rough time until the last couple of years. Let’s hope he can close out with a victory.

No worries, he’s being replaced by his brother, Rural Meyer.

Urban Meyer is Roman Catholic. Did someone say that he was Mormon?

My prayers to Coach Urban Meyer and his family, and I hope that he has a swift and complete recovery. I am a Crimson Tide fan, but I hate to hear that Coach Meyer is ill.

I believe that's an Erlenmeyer(sp?) flask.

He looked out onto the field in the recent SEC championship game and saw the future.

This is really odd, especially if there are no health concerns that weren’t known about in the past. He’d talked about Florida for the long term, even saying that’s where his son would go to college.

That hospital stay may have changed his priorities in life. Let’s hope this isn’t a play for a NFL job.....
