Now before you stop reading because Mike is going into another football story, you may want to reconsider. This guy, Urban not Mike, is a winner and more importantly a leader. This week we will be reviewing this guy, and if you don't see the reason why I admire and wish to emulate him, well, I guess we just come from opposite sides of the street.Urban Meyer came to Salt Lake City before continuing on to Florida to replace an icon of a coach (for Utah standards) who had run his course and guided a very talented team to a 5-6 record. The first year his team finished 10-2 followed the next year by a 12-0 year.
Luck? I don't think so. Two years is not enough to change over your team enough to call it entirely your own as players go, but Meyer had this team firing on all cylinders. What makes the difference? What kind of leader inspires a team to such heights? What can we learn form Coach Urban Meyers?
1) He wins wherever he goes (Florida is currently 4-1)
2) He demands excellence.
3) He is willing to outwork everybody else.
4) He respects others and who they are.
5) He is not afraid to fail.
6) He believes in investment.
7) He takes responsibility.
Hope everybody enjoys Urban Meyer Week!
