I was thinking the same thing, Tim Tebow was leaving.
But as I'm watching ESPNews right now, I'm hearing an illness of some sorts. Hope all is OK. |

He said something about ignoring his health and a new finding that made him reevaluate his life in his statement..

If BC had a decent QB they would have been pretty good this season. Was still a pretty cool bowl game though with it being in the Giants Stadium. Made it a bit interesting

Urban Meyers decides against resigning and wants to take the year off instead.
Makes a bit harder to believe its just stress or health issues when everyone knows Florida is going to be in rebuilding mode without Tebow and a few other players. Also a bit unfair on the interim coach since he's basically in a lose-lose situation because if Florida struggles, they will blame him and if Florida is back to being a power, Meyers comes back and takes the job away from him. |

The whole Urban Meyer thing is pretty odd, with him now apparently not resigning? But I doubt it had anything to do with Tebow etc.
A program like Florida over the past couple years doesn't just disappear because some star players left. They are in a boat with USC now, in my opinion. USC was still very relevant after Leinart and Bush, and will probably be back in contention for a national championship again before long after this season. |

I'm sure he thought about it before this season, but how could he leave when he had that team around him?
It's silly to think he's just doing it to hide from a rebuilding year. They'd still be in the running for the SEC title. |

Bowman, he had a real good game against USC.
This Urban Meyer thing is pretty stupid, could have waited until after the season to do this. Now he isn't even resigning. I think its dumb how much attention is being paid to it now, hopefully Cinncy goes out there and smashes them now. |

It's pretty crazy how much stuff is happening to both coaching staffs for the Sugar Bowl.
UC head coach- left for Notre Dame UF head coach- leaving after game UC offensive coordinator- staying for game then going to Buffalo UF defensive coordinator- left for Louisville |

Can't forget about the Big 12 and their coaches the last 2 months:
Kansas head coach - resigned due to player abuse complaints Texas Tech coach - suspended due to player abuse complaints |

That is terrible. This morning CBS Sportsline published a good handful of e-mails written by Texas Tech current and former players. They all vouched for Leach's credibility and blasted Adam James as being an entitled, lazy jackass.
http://dennis-dodd.blogs.cbssports.c...70202/19238949 But reading the story on ESPN, I have to wonder if either Texas Tech is really fucked up with internal politics and whatnot, or if they actually did discover something about Leach that justified firing him. But the statement from Leach is pretty scathing: Quote:
I just think that if Texas Tech fires a guy who has been an institution at their school, respected by many, and really put the program on the map, they better have a good reason. I believe Leach had one of the longest tenures of any Div. 1 coach. After reading those CBS e-mails, this just really came out of left field to me. |

WOO! The playing field has become slightly more balanced for this Saturday's game with my Michigan State Spartans facing Texas Tech...I'll mark the fuck out if we win.

Air Force's Triple Option and #1 rated pass defense destroyed Houston's Spread. The Mountain West remains undefeated in bowl games this season, with TCU the only team left in the conference to play a bowl.

As a Florida fan, I'm glad to see the Gators dominate but I can't help but feel for Cincy in regards to their coach abandoning them right before their biggest bowl game to date. Gives me another reason to root against Notre Dame.

The Big Ten would like to have a word about not being able to keep up with the speed of other conferences. Wisconsin dominates Miami, Penn State knocks off LSU, and Ohio State puts together one hell of a defensive effort holding Oregon to 17 points. They're a one point loss by Minnesota to Iowa State and an overtime loss by Northwestern away from being unbeaten in bowl play (that was one of the craziest games I've ever seen, BTW -- Northwestern's QB threw the ball 75 times). Pretty impressive given the amount of shit the conference as a whole gets.

Jesus, the Bearcats got blown away. Either Tebow and Meyer wanted to go out with a bang. Or Brian Kelly was the brains behind Cincy's run this year.

I think this would've happened regardless. Florida was just way more talented. Good thing Kelly left when he did.

Like 85% of the bowls are being played in half full stadium. After watching a regular season of seeing all these teams play in jammed out stadiums it just doesn't seem right to end the season this way. I understand why it happens, but still.

ESPN News has been doing the Tebow career montages for the last few hours like he is the greatest player ever in NCAA when they already did the same before with USC Leinhert and Bush and players before that.

I dunno Tebow's definitely one of the 10 best college football players ever. And this is ESPN we're talking about.
