After the worst season of his career Urban Meyer is stepping down at Florida, giving up one of the premier jobs in college football for the second time.

He had been hospitalized with chest pains after the Gators lost to Alabama in last season's Southeastern Conference championship game. This time he did not mention his health being an issue.
