John Brown learned the Bills complicated offense under Daboll and was their leading WR in 2019. The idea he would have trouble learning Urban Meyer's offense is laughable.

The racist overtones in that story cannot be overstated, especially after he allegedly said that things needed to be explained to them "southern boys" because their college transcripts were embellished.

[@HipsterShiningArmor]

Yeah if Meyer had said that to an unproven rookie it would’ve been bad enough but the fact that he felt he had the right to make those comments directed at a veteran wide receiver who’s clearly way fucking smarter and more experienced then he is makes it so so much worse.

The problem with the plane theory is proximity, he wasn’t fired immediately after that came to light. Urban is kinda right, though. Like, we all knew Bobby Knight was a d*ck, but nobody at Indiana gave a crap as long as he produced winners. A decade after your last first place conference finish, though, you get fired for grabbing a kid’s arm.

It’s a sunken cost fallacy. They paid him a LOT of money and really wanted to fix it.
