Urban Meyer

Urban Meyer was one of the SEC’s most successful coaches during the BCS era, leading the Florida Gators to a pair of national titles in 2006 and 2008. In six seasons at Florida from 2005-2010 he racked up a cumulative record of 65-15, never winning fewer than eight games in any season. He was 5-1 in bowl games as head coach of the Gators, and also coached quarterback Tim Tebow to a Heisman Trophy in 2007.

Meyer took a brief leave of absence from Florida after the 2009 season due to a health scare related to stress, but returned prior to the start of the 2010 season. Following that season, however, he infamously left Florida to spend more time with his family. He spent one year working as an analyst at ESPN before accepting the head coaching job at the Ohio State University after the 2011 season. Meyer won 24 of 26 games in his first two seasons with the Buckeyes and his teams were crowned Big 10 Leaders Division champions both years.

After more than 15 years as an assistant coach, Meyer accepted his first head coaching job at Bowling Green in 2001 and spent two years coaching the Falcons. Prior to arriving at Florida he coached for two years at Utah, and his 2004 Utes team became the first team from outside a BCS conference to reach a BCS bowl game, topping Pittsburgh in the Fiesta Bowl.
