Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Urban Meyer has drawn criticism since videos went viral of Meyer at a restaurant dancing with a woman after opting to stay in Ohio to spend time with his family instead of flying back to Florida with his team following its loss Thursday night to the Cincinnati Bengals at Paul Brown Stadium.
ESPN NFL analyst Marcus Spears said Monday that he doesn't think Meyer should be the Jags' head coach.
"Y'all know me. I ain't never scared on TV. I don't give a damn. We've got enough evidence about who Urban Meyer is, America," Spears said. "We have enough. If you want to research it yourself, go ahead and do it. I've researched it. I've talked to people in circles. It's enough out there for everybody to understand why Urban Meyer shouldn't be the head coach of anybody.

Meyer apologized when asked by reporters about the videos:
"I just apologized to the team and the staff for being a distraction. It was stupid," Meyer said. "I explained everything that happened and owned it, and, you know, just stupid, should not have had myself in that kind of position. ... I stayed to see the grandkids, and we all went to dinner that night at a restaurant. There was a big group next to the restaurant, they wanted me to come over and take pictures, and I did. Trying to pull me out on the dance floor, screwing around, and I should have left."
