Urban Meyer on disrespecting the Clemson program and Dabo


Jan 26, 2016, 2:24 PM

Serving as an analyst for ESPN, one thing Meyer got was an up-close look at the players and the teams. As impressive as he found Alabama, Meyer also sees a bright future of Clemson. And he’ll never make the mistake again of disrespecting Dabo Swinney’s program. When he was coaching at Florida and the Gators lost five-star running back C. J. Spiller to Clemson, Meyer was furious with himself and his staff.

“I had never recruited against Clemson and I didn’t know much about them. And to be honest I didn’t properly respect them,” Meyer said. “Then you go there and see what they have — and it’s for real. Dabo awakened a sleeping giant! You haven’t heard the last of Clemson.”

Swinney has since become one of Meyer’s closest coaching friends.

Meyer thinks Tigers quarterback Deshaun Watson is a future NFL No. 1 pick and recruited him hard to play for the Buckeyes — but lost out again.

He rubbed me the wrong way before and during halftime of the title game.

alludes to Meyer commenting on Deshaun Watson, so I'm assuming the majority of the commentary is from a recent dialog. But yeah I do remember Meyer being very complementary when he was working for ESPN and covering our games.

When he left UF and became an analyst for ESPN for a year he was more than fair when he spoke of the TIGERS.
