Meyer Plans to Coach Spring Practice. Online sportsbook odds are going to have the Florida Gators as one of the favorites next season in college football. It was announced after the college football season that head coach Urban Meyer would be taking a leave of absence but Meyer seems to be backing off those statements. Sportsbook has him getting ready to lead the team in spring practice.
Online sportsbook had the Gators winning big in the Sugar Bowl against Cincinnati and it was expected that Meyer would be out of the spotlight for a while. You can scrap that idea as online sportsbook has it. “I keep hearing about this time out. People I’m closest to are going to demand I take some time off, but I tried that already. I tried a day and a half, and it didn’t work.” Meyer said.
Sportsbook had the Florida head coach saying that he is doing pretty much the same things as he always did except traveling less. He has said he expects to be leading the team in spring practice. Meyer has been working hard on recruiting and it is expected at the online sportsbook that Florida will be leading the way again in getting top players to commit. It has been reported that Meyer’s wife and the Florida athletic director want him to take time off after next month’s signing day. That is something that he has never done but might consider taking a break until spring practice begins. “I’ve been instructed I have to. I’m just not sure what I’m going to do,” he said. “I just don’t know how long.”
Meyer has made some changes in his life though including his diet and workouts. “I feel real good,” he said. “I’ve been working out a lot. I’m over 200 pounds, so I guess that’s how they gauge it a little bit because I was not good there for a while. Doing a lot better.”
Sportsbook indicated that Meyer is excited about next season and the recruits he has coming in. “I’m excited about our staff,” Meyer said. “I’m really excited about our team and recruiting’s obviously going well.”
Florida didn’t do much wrong this past online sportsbook season. They lost only one game straight up as online sportsbook results showed but that was the SEC Championship game to eventual national champion Alabama. The Gators finished the season at 7-6 vs. the odds at the sportsbook. Florida is already one of the favorites to win it all next year in online sportsbook odds.
