Rich Eisen and Urban Meyer
When Urban Meyer came into the NFL, a lot of people were of the opinion that he might not be able to deliver at the biggest stage and one has to admit that they were right. His stint with the Jaguars came to an end after a short period and no one was actually surprised.
Meyer was the Jaguars’ head coach for 13 games and his team had a record of 2-11 by the time he was done with them. In his defense, there wasn’t too much quality on the roster but his presence surely didn’t help as well. Moreover, his love affair with controversies did do any good to him or the franchise.
“He was fired for his off-field actions, not for a losing record”: Rich Eisen on Urban Meyer
A few months back, Urban Meyer was seen at a bar dancing with a woman who wasn’t his wife. After that, reports of Meyer kicking Josh Lambo surfaced. After that, a report by ‘The Athletic’ showed just how bad Urban Meyer was and how toxic the environment in Jacksonville truly was and after that, Meyer claimed he had no idea who Aaron Donald was.
Talking about the same, Rich Eisen had a few things to say on the latest episode of the “Rich Eisen Show.” “The problem is there has been zero dignity in everything alleged that Urban did,” he said. Rich even lashed out at Tim May for actually being too soft while asking important questions from Urban on his podcast.
“There is no way you didn’t know who the most talented player in NFL was, right? There’s no way you kicked your kicker, right? There’s no way you went to your QB and told him to slow it down because people from Florida require stuff to slow down, right?” Eisen said sarcastically mocking Tim.
“Whenever I go in on Urban Meyer, people say that it is a Michigan-Ohio state thing, it is not. When you are in the NFL and you know how hard people work and how hard scouts work, and how hard front offices work, and how hard assistant coaches work, and how hard coaches work for a reputation, and then you hear all the stuff when he came in and did and then went to Tim’s podcast to say that he got fired because he didn’t win enough,” Eisen added.
“A lot of coaches haven’t won enough over years and got fired, he didn’t make it through his first season because of other things that led to losing and also did not lead to anybody believing that he was a viable head coach in the NFL because he knew nothing about the way it worked. He always wanted everybody to adjust according to him,” he further added.
