He is one of the greatest college football coaches ever

Book Urban Meyer for your event

Urban Meyer is a highly respected figure in the world of college football, known for his exceptional coaching career and leadership on the field. He began his head coaching career at Bowling Green in 2001, where he quickly turned the program around, leading the Falcons to a 17-6 record over two seasons. His success at Bowling Green earned him a position at Utah, where he continued to build his reputation by leading the Utes to an undefeated season in 2004, culminating in a Fiesta Bowl victory. Meyer's innovative offensive schemes and ability to develop talent made him one of the most sought-after coaches in the country.

Meyer's most notable achievements came during his tenure as head coach of the Florida Gators from 2005 to 2010. Under his leadership, the Gators won two BCS National Championships, in 2006 and 2008, solidifying his status as one of the top coaches in college football. His teams were known for their explosive offenses, led by standout players like Tim Tebow, and their aggressive, disciplined defenses. Meyer’s ability to recruit and develop top-tier talent was a key factor in Florida’s dominance during this period, and his winning percentage of .842 through the 2009 season was the highest among active FBS coaches at the time.

After a brief retirement in 2011, Meyer returned to coaching in 2012, this time with the Ohio State Buckeyes. His impact was immediate, as he led the Buckeyes to an undefeated season in his first year. In 2014, Meyer guided Ohio State to a Big Ten Championship and the first-ever College Football Playoff National Championship, further cementing his legacy as one of the greatest college football coaches of all time. Meyer’s tenure at Ohio State was marked by consistent success, including multiple Big Ten titles and a reputation for developing NFL-caliber players.

In 2021, Meyer made the jump to the NFL as head coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars, but his time in the professional ranks was short-lived. After a 2-11 start and several controversies, Meyer was dismissed from his position before the end of the season. Despite the challenges in the NFL, Meyer’s legacy in college football remains intact, with three national championships and a reputation as one of the most innovative and successful coaches in the sport’s history. He has since returned to broadcasting, resuming his role as an analyst for Fox Sports.
