Urban Meyer Says He Won't Coach At Notre Dame. Ever, Ever, Ever.

From the "enough already" category, Florida football coach Urban Meyer reiterated, for about the 1,000,000th time, that he isn't planning on going to Notre Dame to coach.

Sure, he's the guy that a bunch of Irish supporters would like to see hired if and when Charlie Weis is done at Notre Dame, but who knows if that'll be in a year, in five years or in 10?

"I'm not going to Notre Dame. Ever," Meyer told various media members, including Pat Dooley of the Gainesville Sun. "I'm going to be the coach at Florida for a long time, as long as they want me."

Considering he's won two national titles in the past three years, the folks in Gainesville might consider keeping Meyer around for a bit.
