Meyer is getting screwed

[Roy Munson]

I think he did exactly what JoePa did in 1998 when Jerry was investigated and no charges were filed. Should JoePa have been fired in 2001?

Yes, but mostly because he wasn't a good football coach anymore.

 

[TheRobotDevil]

Wow, clarks stupid is spreading...

There is zero chance he made that up. None. At all. And it's patently stupid to even suggest it.

The chick? Sure. Plenty of room for her to have fabricated that, but the reporter? It's just dumb. That didn't happen. Period.

And no, you don't have McMurphy 'lying'. At best he did shoddy reporting and put things in print that may not have been true that he didn't take due diligence to get right before posting. That's at best. And that's not called him lying. That's called shitty reporting. And it isn't uncommon.

What is uncommon is a reporter to entirely fabricate easily verifiable physical evidence in an already big story to further a career.

You must have missed he part where McMurphy claimed arrests. That in fact never happened.......You may be giving McMurphy too much credit.How much did he get paid for the story? Why did he leave out the time stamps?

When I hit submit I knew that was going to be your response.

 

[AlaskaGuy]

the point people are trying to make are that Urban knew something and did nothing.

JoePa heard about something 2nd hand and reported it to the head of university police...

Neither is a LEO, and neither has the responsibility to do anything past report what they know.

Interesting. Makes zero sense that Urban Meyer would release the statement he did if this is true.

It’d seem he would know he had zero responsibility to report it.

Incorrect. There is a clause in his contract which specifically requires reporting any of his staff involved in any domestic dispute. Has nothing to do with Title IX, however. He also has a "morals" clause which might apply.

Duck! Incoming!

Brett McMurphy's Original Zach Smith-Urban Meyer Story Has Been Edited

This is where the I agree with the OP. Any twitter “reporter” can literally spin any story. In a manner so it grabs legs. And use social media as a tool for a big pay day. Based on speculation.....And if people bite the actual facts and system doesn’t matter. Right now this is basically twitter court

only explanation is that JoePa killed him with his bare hands.

That clause was only added in April of this year and it is considered a Title IX clause (that’s what it is called). Majority of schools don’t use it, so props to OSU for doing so.

It shouldn’t have anything to do with 2015 though

Then there would be no reason for him to say he didn’t know about it. That’s the problem here, he says he followed protocol but yet felt the need to lie about knowledge of it 2 weeks earlier?? Take off your homer glasses, it’s just making you look like more of a jackass.

Well the thing is he has already admitted he says he lied. Now he came out told the truth and the police can back him so can the AD. I think you delusional people thinking this reporter is tellng the whole truth is the real problem especially when we havent heard the whole story. All I have said from the start is wait till it plays out and calling people names doesnt make you look like you care what Meyer did you would persecute him. Nobody cares what you hillbillies think. Your program is shit lolzzz

It’d seem he would know he had zero responsibility to report it.

His responsibility to report is completely independent of whether or not any charges were filed or any convictions were secured. That isn't how this works.

 

[Codaxx]

How so? Gene knew (he talked to the police); Urban knew (he presumably talked to Gene, and definitely talked to Zach). If the police told them there was nothing to be concerned about, what were they supposed to do?

Again, I expect that if policy was followed, I would assume there is documentation of such.

He reversed course and said he did everything right. Then Assistant said the AD talked directly to him, so if there was any break in procedure then it is with the AD

Listen to yourself. You are literally trying to convince yourself somebody else lied and Urban Meyer did nothing wrong. It is the epitome of delusion.

If he indeed handled it through the proper chain of command there was literally no reason for him to lie at B10 media days. It makes it look like he’s hiding something else.

An don’t act like you care about the situation or the victim. You’re just worried about protecting a football coach who gets your program wins.

Ohh and if you didn’t care what I think you wouldn’tve responded, bitch.

That’s the problem. It’s hard to know what the truth is now. His first statements taint everything he has said after

It's easy to know what the truth is. Meyer didn't lie on Media Day in order to make himself look bad.

This isn't a surprise from you. The English language has escaped you for some time now.

Yes, he probably did change that language. It went from 'Arrested' to 'Investigated'. To the dipshits of the world this means he entirely made up a story and lied about it. To everyone else it means he was following a story and wasn't careful about proofreading and ensuring his facts were straight.

And stop with the fucking time stamp utter bullshit. Again HE didn't take a screen shot you fucking boob, the chick took it and sent it to him. Stop being so utterly dumb.

And McMurphy reversed course. Funny how he went from having spoke to the police. And acquired information regarding an arrest. And now it was an investigation...But this goes back to where I agree with the OP. If we let twitter reporters just say what they want to get paid. And they utilize twitter as a weapon. Its not even going to be about Meyers its going to be which program is next....

 

[Codaxx]

I agree with that, but someone asked why I thought Meyer was trying to set up the AD as the fall guy with his latest statements

Follow the money. It's all about the Tubmans.

If the big donors get to keep Urban as a coach, they will gladly sacrifice an AD who should have been fired long ago anyhow. Surely Meyer knows this.

I am not even talking about McMurphy, I am talking about the politics inside of OSU. It makes next to 0 sense that Meyer would lie to the public if there was no truth to the story. Even if you assume that the story is baseless, you still have to question Meyers credibility
