Yes, there are Florida Gators fans so dedicated to the their favorite team they would actually name a child after the school’s football coaches.
Jen Wiley, a Florida graduate and huge Gators fan, named her son “Spurrier Urban” after the two Florida football coaches who won national championships at the school.
But as Bay News 9 reports, she wants to change her son’s middle name now that Urban Meyer has taken a job with Ohio State.
“I felt sick actually,” Wiley said. “I want to change his middle name.”
Given that Jen named her son after another Florida coach who left the school, we’re guessing she’ll be able to get over this one in time. Think about it: Steve Spurrier was doing work at South Carolina when the child was born in 2006. I wouldn’t let this get me down if I were Urban.
