Urban Meyer is finally being held to account by his team and his sport, and he's flailing in response

When you've never before had to abide by rules or standards, when you've never before been held to account for your misdeeds, when you've never not had a cadre of high-powered people willing to cover for you, you become an entitled, excuse-making chump.

Nearly everything we've seen from Meyer since he was hired by Jacksonville Jaguars owner Shad Khan affirms this. His posture, his words — nothing is his fault, he can try to explain anything away, he's more than happy to pass the blame on to someone else, or drag his franchise quarterback into the muck of Meyer's own making.
