Interesting read on Urban Meyer

[Karma]

I've never been a fan of his, but hard to read this and not feel some compassion. Coaches are driven extremely hard.

Does it cover the part of spending more time with family for health reasons?

I'm with you.
I was going to read it but read your post first and laughed out loud. Good stuff

I'm taking it the whispers of fondness for co-eds was left out of the whole heart issue story.  He's a slimeball and no fluff piece will change my mind on that.

You should read the article if you think it's a ruse.

Cliff notes of article,

Urban takes a loss hard

Sits in dark rooms after a loss

Worries family becaus she wasn't that way when they met and he had shaved ankles

He needed ambien and beer to sleep

He had his "attack"

He sat out and enjoyed family time

Signed family contract so they would approve of him accepting osu job.

Whoopty do article.  Really doesn't shed any light on anything we didn't know. Petrino was known for always being in the Broykes center from sun up to sun down.  Many coaches put in the long hours.

As a coach, this hit close to home. I've gone through a lot of the same issues that he was going through. Excessive weight loss during season, stress, sleeplessness, extreme fatigue, etc. I realized that I get much the same way he said he was while he was at Florida. Obsessive about the outcomes and only focused on one thing. This really made me think about how to prioritize things and make sure I'm taking care of me first. Good read, fan or Urban or not, for anyone who has a job where they may put too much stress on themselves because of it.

Wonder if his extramarital activity had anything to do with the long grueling hours at the office? Lol

Yet another thing I have in common with Urban.

Was the first thing taking ambien with beer?  lol

Lol not quite. The stress levels cause by a season and never being satisfied by my teams performance. Maybe I should try the ambien and beer route.

The primary difference between Petrino and Meyer is one of them isn't a very good motorcycle rider and the other is decent enough looking to nail hot coeds. 

He might not have had time for the treadmill,  but he was getting in some cardio...
