 This year has been difficult for Meyer's Gators, his worst in a tenure at Florida that includes two national titles. The Gators are a disappointing 7-5, including a 31-7 regular season-ending loss to archrival Florida State. Tim Tebow, the Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback with whom Meyer was particularly close, is now an NFL rookie, and things haven't been the same since he left.

12-1. Haskins to NYC.

"At the end of the day," he said at his news conference, "I'm very convinced that you are to be judged on how you are as a husband and as a father."

For me, today is a sad day as a fan. But I'm also so happy for those closest to him. I can't imagine what a high (e.g., 2014) and low (e.g., arguably any other year) must be for them.
