Any chance Urban Meyer coaches the Bengals?

Meyer was known to let stars get away with breaking the rules.  There were multiple incidents of players getting into physical confrontations with coaches and each other.  When players had to miss a game because of a failed drug test Meyer would put them in a walking boot like they were injured. 

This was common knowledge among big SEC fans, but when Meyer left ESPN spoke to a few dozen players and other people connected to the program and did a scathing report on Urban.  Florida was "Thug U" under Urban.

And I bet after he leaves OSU there will be some "surprise news" about players in trouble.

I still call BS. Blame the most successful person around for everything that goes wrong instead of the losers around who are the one's actually making it go wrong.
