    Great article Bill.

    Thanks for posting it.

    Meyer almost lost a good neighbor back in April....thank God he didn't.

    Or maybe that illustrates how Donovan never intended on moving his family.

    I met Urban Meyer for the first time in a social setting this past May when he and Mrs were at the same "pre-prom" photo shoot. Our son was in a group of 16 couples that included his oldest daughter that participated in a progressive dinner before prom. We co-hosted the photo-shoot and hors doeuvres for the group and parents were invited, of course, to take photos of the kids. He was quite accessible and spent a lot of time talking with parents about everything from high school memories to Gator football.

    Ah....the pre-prom photo shoot.

    I have had two sons already go through all of those and they never look better do they?

    My youngest son just turned 10 yesterday so I have another one to go.

    Cool stuff about meeting Billy D.

    Maybe they are saving that vacant lot for a baseball coach, isn't Gator baseball sort of ordinary? That's the next slot you guys need to fill with an all world coach! :)

    Hopefully, that's been done with Kevin O'Sullivan!!

    Interestingly, the best Volleyball coach in the SEC lives about 1/4 mile WSW of Donovan and Meyer, and the UF swim coach lives about 1/2 mile SSE of the same.
