    This excerpt from CFN actually makes sense:

    "This is as good as it’s going to get for Florida football, with Tennessee about a year away from being a powerhouse again, Alabama already there, LSU and Georgia sure to come back roaring, Arkansas looking like it’s about to do big things under Bobby Petrino, Auburn getting back on track, and the rest of the SEC continuing to improve. It’s not like this will be Florida’s roost to rule on a yearly basis, and that idea isn’t going to sit well with Meyer, especially if he goes from the elite of the coaching ranks to College Football God with a third national title. How excited do you think Meyer will be to come up with a rebuilding effort after this season?

    Take it a step further. If you’re Notre Dame, you have to understand the mood of the situation in Gainesville and understand that this might be your one and only show. You make the phone call and you get the ego massaging down pat, to make up for the time you blew it the first time you tried to woo Meyer to South Bend"

    I actually do think the SEC is heading for a makeover in that the competition is going to step it up a little in the next few years making it hard for Urban and UF to stay on the white hot pace they have been on over the past 4 years.

    I wonder if he thinks it might be fun to try it all over again in South Bend but really when you think about it ND has it's work cut out as well and would expect no less than national titles from Urbs whereas UF fans could be happy for awhile anyway with just pretty good seasons with a Sugar Bowl mixed in. It's not realistic to think UF can keep this up forever but it is realistic to hope we can get there occasionally..
