On Friday, the Jaguars held a press conference for Urban Meyer. Meyer was named the sixth head coach in franchise history. After being named the team’s head coach yesterday via a statement released by owner Shad Khan, Meyer fielded plenty of questions from the local Jacksonville media and some national outlets, too.
Among the common theme of the press conference was a need to win. The urgency in Jacksonville is at an all-time high, as is the excitement for the direction of the franchise. According to Jaguars.com’s Ashlyn Sullivan, season ticket sales for the Jaguars have leaped eight-fold ahead of last season’s pace.
