Jaguars fire Meyer

The Jacksonville Jaguars fire Urban Meyer.   They just paid him leave after not even completing a full year on the job. Jaguars Fire Urban Meyer  Although Meyer's personality caught up to him in the pros he had a very successful college coaching career.  Meyer had 2 National Championships at Florida and 1 National Championship at Ohio State.   But he never had any experience coaching in the pros, this is credited for part of his downfall at Jacksonville. 

Why do we care Cyclone fans, well Matt Campbell's name has been raised multiple times in the past fewer years concerning open coaching positions.   Including open positions in the NFL.   It is rumored Campbell turned down a 8 year $68.5 million dollar deal.  Campbell Never Offered Lions Job  I have said, many times Matt Campbell may leave but I don't think he will do it for the NFL and I don't think he is a good fit for the NFL.   

This should relieve some of the talk about Campbell leaving Iowa State to take another job in the NFL.  Thank you Urban Meyer, I believe the NFL big wigs will be slow to hire a college coach anytime soon.  Unless, they are some sort of Quarterback whisperer, perhaps like Lincoln Riley.   But, the list of college coaches making the jump to the pros has been a historically short list at best.
