Jacksonville Jaguars: 3 reasons why Urban Meyer is perfect hire

The Jacksonville Jaguars just took the first step toward rebuilding.

The Jacksonville Jaguars have officially introduced Urban Meyer as their new head coach. The former Florida and Ohio State head coach had a sit-down with the local media Friday and shared his vision. While we can’t tell whether he’s going to succeed or fail based on his first presser alone, there is plenty to be excited about, and here are three reasons why this was the perfect hiring.

1. Meyer is going to put his players in a position to succeed

Meyer said during the sit-down he can’t demand the best from his players if they don’t have the best resources. He emphasized the need to give his players the best tools to succeed, and if the organization doesn’t have them, they have to ask why not and then get them. This sounds like it’s key to having success and the very first thing an organization should do, but it’s not always the case.

Before Meyer got the job, he talked to the Jaguars’ brass about upgrading the facilities and staffing, per Albert Breer of MMQB. The Dream Finders Homes Practice Complex isn’t falling apart and there aren’t any public complaints about it. Nevertheless, those upgrades can make a difference, give them an edge and help them build a winning team.
