Jaguars coach Urban Meyer on NFL draft call: 'To hell with Georgia'

James Morgan
For The Win

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Urban Meyer fondly remembers his experience as a college coach and will use it to help guide him in the NFL. Meyer won championships as he notably coached for the Florida Gators and Ohio State Buckeyes in college.

Now, the NFL will present a new challenge. Urban Meyer just finished his first career NFL draft. He ended up selecting several players he recruited back when he was the coach at Ohio State.

On his draft call with sixth-round pick Jalen Camp, Urban Meyer wasted no time denouncing the Georgia Bulldogs. Meyer and Camp, who was a wide receiver at Georgia Tech, share a common rival from their days in college football: Georgia.

Meyer has several family connections to Georgia Tech to strengthen his distaste for Georgia.

Interestingly, Camp will practice against former Georgia defensive back Tyson Campbell. The Jaguars drafted Campbell with the first pick in the second round of the 2021 NFL draft.
