Culture: Why is Urban Meyer leaving Florida? It comes down to his health.
- I have ignored my health for years, but recent developments have forced me to re-evaluate my priorities of faith and family.
- Florida football coach Urban Meyer • On his reasons for resignation. Meyer is one of those workaholic guys who eats, sleeps and breathes football, something his wife would try to do everything to help work around. But Meyer has also had some significant health problems – he was diagnosed with an arachnoid cyst on his brain in 1999, which is about as scary as it sounds. Many fans are largely supportive of his decision, as sad and shocking as it is to the ultra-successful Florida program. source
