•On Meyer’s health: “I’m going to tell you honestly, I said at one point, in all the years I coached with him, that he was going to end up doing that because he works so hard. So many head coaches will demand from their assistants, but don’t do it, too. He does it. He’ll outwork everyone on his staff if you let him. It’s because of his love for that school. I really believe that. He doesn’t ever want to fail them. Another thing he has that a lot of other head coaches don’t have is he genuinely cares about the players. A lot of them say they do, but they don’t. With Urban, it’s about making sure they become better people when they leave. He wants them all to be great players, but more important, he wants them to be great people. That’s not just show with him, it’s real. When you do all those things, along with coaching, there’s only so many hours in the day. He’s got to learn that.”
•On UF: “That’s a tremendous place. That will always be my favorite place of all the places I’ve been because of the people there. I tell our guys, that program is what it is because of the job Jeremy Foley does. It starts at the top. And Urban is the best, and right on down.”

I'm glad Matty said what he did. He was around Urban Meyer way back in the 90's when they were assistants at ND, and even though he jumped to the NFL it's apparent he still has a great amount of respect for him and UF. If he ever wanted to come back and join the staff, I'd have no objection to that.

And the Birmingham Blowhard calls Meyer "narcissistic"? Slimebaum, you're SCUM.
