    Urban Meyer is stepping down as coach of the Florida football team, athletics director Jeremy Foley announced Saturday afternoon in a release.

    "I have given my heart and soul to coaching college football and mentoring young men for the last 24-plus years and I have dedicated most of my waking moments the last five years to the Gator football program," Meyer said in statement. "I have ignored my health for years, but recent developments have forced me to re-evaluate my priorities of faith and family.

    "After consulting with my family, Dr. Machen, Jeremy Foley and my doctors, I believe it is in my best interest to step aside and focus on my health and family.

    "I'm proud to be a part of the Gainesville community and the Gator Nation and I plan to remain in Gainesville and involved with the University of Florida.

    "I'm very appreciative for the opportunity I've had to be a part of a tremendous institution - from Dr. Machen to Jeremy Foley and the entire administrative staff at UF. I'm also very thankful for the chance to work with some of the best assistants in college football and coach some of the best college football players and watch them grow both on and off the field as people. I will cherish the relationships with them the most."

    Meyer will coach his last game for Florida against Cincinnati on Jan. 1 at the Sugar Bowl.

    (1) Hope he's healthy.
    (2) Hope they found major violations with the program.

    well remember he did check himself into a hospital after the bama beating, so maybe the health reasons are legit, in that case, hope the best for him and his family

    Even tho I hate the Gators, I think Urban is a fantastic coach.

    Hope he gets well quickly, so he can be back on the sideline in no time.

    Good for him to realize it now. I mean you honestly trade in your family to be a high level successful coach and while the $ is good, you basically are never home, miss your kids functions, don't eat as a family, etc etc. I don't know how some of these coaches can do it for so long.

    I'm sure ESPN is frantically attempting to get a quote from Lane Kiffin asap.
