| Biography: |
Urban Meyer was hired in December 2002 with the expectation that he would bring conference championships and Top 25 rankings to the Utah football program. However, no one envisioned instant results, especially since the Utes were coming off a 5-6 season in 2002. No one, that is, except the high-energy Meyer, whose fast-paced approach is already becoming legendary in college football circles.
In just his first year at Utah and third year as a head coach, Meyer was named National Coach of the Year by The Sporting News after leading the Utes to a 10-2 record, their first outright conference championship since 1957, a bowl victory and a final national ranking of No. 21. Meyer became the first coach from Utah's conference-and just the second coach from a non-BCS program-ever to receive the coveted TSN award. Meyer was also voted the Mountain West Conference Coach of the Year-becoming Utah's first conference coach of the year selection since 1978. It marked his second such award in three years as a head coach, adding to his 2001 Mid-American Conference honor. The conference's media poll, commissioned by the Las Vegas Review-Journal, also elected Meyer its MWC Coach of the Year, and with 93-percent of the vote.
