Meyer is arrogant! Foley giving him a million dollars to get well showed he didn’t get it, but was an offering to keep him in the fold for Bull Gators.
I knew this would end bad. He took the money and very quickly left for the Bucknuts, traitor. Us Gators looking like chumps at the end.

I don't think it was to keep him for the Bull Gators, but, as I recall, Meyer's contract had a $1M retention clause that he would get if he was here on a certain upcoming date. Meyer knew he was leaving and him staying a few weeks to get his $M would only hurt us in our coaching search so Foely agreed to pay him out to save time on the search.

How did it hurt the coaching search?

Feels tainted in more than what I commented on.
Love what happened on the field, but other shenanigans make me feel he was nothing more than a mercenary.
