Weren't people in this thread in 2009-10 buying the stories about what was going on at Florida hook, line and sinker? Weren't people in this thread in 2011 saying that they didn't want Urban Meyer to bring that same sort of culture to Ohio State? Has the culture under his leadership been anything like that in his 3+ years so far? I don't see the need to defend the things we were all pointing and hollering about years ago. I'm pretty sure at least most of those things actually happened, and they weren't good. Meyer has admitted that he made bad compromises and that he needed to do things differently going forward. It doesn't reflect poorly on Ohio State at all. It does reflect poorly on Urban Meyer to an extent, but he's been fairly candid about what went wrong and seems to have taken corrective measures. That's more than what you get out of most coaches who run a program like the one Florida had toward the end of his tenure there.
As for the idea that Florida is still shitty because of the state that Meyer left the program in, anybody with at least a double-digit IQ knows that's a garbage take and that Will Muschamp being a garbage head coach has more to do with the current situation than anything that happened before that.
