If you have been online in the last few days, you have probably seen the video of the football coach, Urban Meyer at an Ohio bar. Meyer is the former coach of the Florida Gators and Ohio State Buckeyes. He now coaches the Jacksonville Jaguars and has found himself in some serious hot water.
So what exactly happened in this video? When you watch it on YouTube, you can see some pretty disturbing things. The video is of Meyer dancing very closely with a blonde college student. He is seen with her for a few minutes and looks to be having a great time touching her inappropriately.
Sports: Meyer’s Statement
Meyer told the press, “I apologize to the team for being a distraction. It was stupid.” There are multiple videos all over social media that show Meyer with his hands all over this woman’s inner thigh and in more compromising positions. Because of this incident, Meyer has really messed up and his team feels that way too.
Sports: The Infamous Urban Meyer Video
Because of this incident, Meyer did not join his players on their flight home after they lost in Cincinnati. His wife ended up making a statement about the video and it was something that she had to actually wake up and see before getting the word from Meyer. This is pretty embarrassing for her and in her statement, you can feel it.
In the statement that Shelley Meyer made, she addressed the video. She said, “We all make mistakes – we are all sinners. If you think you aren’t? Then cast the first stone. To my wonderful followers/friends: THANK YOU. For your love, support, friendship, laughs – I will miss this most. I love you ALL and wish God’s blessings on you. Thank you.”
Of course, many of her followers are concerned about what she meant by ‘I will miss this most’, and they are curious if things will go south between the couple after this incident. Clearly, Urban has a lot of explaining to do and who knows if apologies can fix their marriage after this.
There have been plenty of apologies from Meyer and excuses as well. In the locker room, it seems as if the players view him in a very different way now. From the looks of it, his players now have very little respect for him and the fans are not happy with him either. He has embarrassed himself, his family, and his team.
There has been a lot of talk about how he isn’t taking the time to develop his new quarterback, Trevor Lawrence either, and he needs it the most right now. With these behaviors from Urban, we think about the speech that he once made to his players, “Don’t make excuses. It seems like this whole world’s full of excuses right now. No excuses.” Let that roll around in your head for a while.
