Report: Urban Meyer Changes Mind, To Take Leave Of Absence Rather Than Resign

by Jon Bois

Well, this is certainly the biggest news since Urban Meyer’s announcement of his impending resignation on Saturday. ESPN’s Chris Mortenson is reporting that instead of resigning outright, Meyer will merely take a leave of absence from Florida.

Reported to Espn: urban meyer changes mind, now leave of absence with Asst Steve [Addazio] now interim coach.

We don’t yet know how long Meyer’s leave of absence will be, or what led Meyer to re-evaluation his decision. Stick with us for details. Hopefully, more will be revealed at 4:30 P.M. Sunday when Meyer holds his press conference.
