Urban Meyer...

[Golden Spur]

Lol, he seriously fucked up hiring that guy back. Hard to believe it could go down like this, so quick.

 

[DJ]

Did he "retire" again?

 

[corn train]

Can someone give me the cliff notes. I'm not reading 29 pages.

I’m still not sure

 

[DJ]

Holy shit.......this is big......right before football starts up.....

 

[DJ]

Probably not. He'll likely just shake it off and buttrape Jim Harbaugh. Again.

Hopefully, he doesn't butt-r*pe any ball boys.....

 

[TrustMeIamRight]

Stop acting like you give a shit about the woman, you just want any excuse for Urban to be gone so you guys might have a chance at beating us again.

I didn’t say anything of the such. I just responded to the ridiculous statement you made about how she could be dead if not for Meyer employing him all this time.

I already said I don’t think he should be fired. I just said it makes him look shady with zero morals.

Read the full article :

“Geesh! Even [with] the pics?” Shelley Meyer texted. “Didn’t law enforcement come to your place ever??”

It went on from there. Courtney Smith said numerous wives on the Ohio State staff knew of the 2015 incident where Courtney claimed Zach shoved her against a wall and strangled her all while their then 5-year-old son and 3-year-old daughter were in the room. Police were called but the incident did not progress to any arrests.

Courtney Smith, in an interview with Stadium, said she also spoke to Shelley Meyer about it.

“I told Shelley,” Courtney said. “I sent her some pictures. I spoke to her on the phone. She said she was going to have to tell Urban. I said, ‘That’s fine. You should tell Urban. You can’t have someone like this coaching young men.’

At this point, the only way for Urban Meyer to claim he knew “nothing” about that is to believe that Shelley did not inform him of this. The two are remarkably close and Urban Meyer has, for years, publicly stated how Shelley is essentially part of his coaching staff and plays a role in managing people, players and families.

If Shelley Meyer didn’t tell Urban though, then the question is why? How could a woman claim Zach Smith “scares her” and offer sympathy for his alleged abuse victim but then not care enough to mention it to Urban Meyer, thus continuing to allow Zach Smith to coach and mentor Buckeyes football players?

It’s why the concept of Shelley saying nothing to Urban is, while possible, so improbable. Shelley Meyer is a strong woman. She is also a registered nurse and an instructor at Ohio State’s College of Nursing and thus is bound by Title IX statutes to report abuse. Urban Meyer, as a coach, is also mandated to report it.

If Urban Meyer knew anything at all about the 2015 incident, then he wasn’t just employing and covering up for an alleged violent abuser. Even last week he was still lying about it.

The first part is enough to question the judgment of the coach, who particularly during his time at Florida recruited and coached numerous troubled players, most notably tight end Aaron Hernandez. That he would still be untruthful and covering up a week ago makes it clear nothing has changed with him.

There would be no way he could remain in his job.

Ohio State investigating Urban Meyer, with job in balance

"Zach Smith was arrested in Gainesville, Fla., in 2009 on an aggravated battery charge stemming from a domestic incident when Smith—the grandson of former Buckeyes coach Earle Bruce—worked for Meyer at Florida. Those charges were dropped, and Courtney told McMurphy she was pressured to drop them by longtime Meyer consigliere Hiram de Fries and by her husband’s parents."

I'm just telling you what's in the story...shrugs.

I'm just laughing how this is starting to sound like a six degrees of separation conspiracy theory.

 

[Peter Gozintite]

You got what you paid for OSU.

 

[DJ]

I was just thibking about this.

Meyer is in knee deep cow shit.....errr, Buckeye shit.

Here is the hole interview, I’m sure it’s been posted however it’s pretty disturbing he was doing it to his pregnant wife in 2009 and continued it in front of his own children until 2015. She doesn’t specifically say but implied cpd didn’t press charges because of who he was

So this dude physically abused his pregnant wife back in 2009 at Florida, police report, etc. and Urbs brought him with to OSU?


POS

I just reviewed Title IX. I saw a lot about sexual abuse/violence, particularly against students, but I didn’t see anything about domestic violence.

SC went through it last year with Boermeister. Once it went Title IX it no longer had anything to do with Helton or the football program. Once it went federal it became about Boermeister and his Girlfriend "the abused" Katz. Not sure how it pertains here but unless theres solid proof Meyers was actually involved. I don't see Meyers being a factor in this once everything sorted out.

Just watched the Brett McMurphy interview

Confirms this story is just him digging for anything. Everyone’s guilty until proven innocent. Her own parents are telling her not to go to the police but somehow this gets put on Urban. The only thing you can argue is he should have fired Zach Smith, but we don’t know what was known at the time.

This whole thing stinks of a PR move by the wifes lawyer to get her case more eyes on it. If Urban gets fired for this the Uni has no balls.

 

[DJ]

I can’t express how shocking this news comes to me

I don't believe you.

That only applies to the 2009 incident. Which Urban admitted him and his wife helped them with counseling. If that's the case and it's a fact that his wife knew about 2015, how would Urban not know?

Dude is out to get someone to make a name for himself, this one could backfire on him

“Urbs lawyer represented players and Urbs asked her to give Zach a 2nd chance... he would never physically assault his pregnant wife again.”




Then he gets hired at OSU.

Man I bet that Florida lawyer was busy back then. Lulz
