Did you see this story?He was a horrible pro coach and a PR disaster. Good interviewing and delving into backgrounds tend to get those kinds of things brought to the surface.
Urban Meyer calls disastrous Jaguars stint ‘worst experience’ of career
Some real gems:
“You know, the amount of reps you get before you go play a game, to me, was shockingly low. For example, we would practice, you maybe get one or two reps at something, next thing you know you’re calling it in the game. In college, you never do that. In college, you’re going to get at least a dozen opportunities to practice that before you ask a player to go do it in the game. So there are a lot of differences.”
yeah, just like every other nfl coach.
“Used to be in college, the reality is you spend 75% of your time recruiting,” Meyer said. “In professional football, there’s no recruiting. So it’s all scheme and it’s all roster management. You’re getting guys rolling in on your organization on a Tuesday and they’re gonna play for you on a Sunday. So there is some obvious differences to the two games.”
So, you could’ve spent the 75% of newly found free time by scheming. Shows how much recruiting skills versus coaching skills he has.
