Stop blaming the media. There's only two people to blame...Smith and Meyer. One is a wife abuser and one hid and lied about it.

Well that’s what you want to believe. Did you lead the investigation?

Do you you know what the difference between a charge and a conviction is? People get wrongly charged all the time. Do I think Smith is a scumbag piece of shit? Yes I do. But I can also see why someone would hesitate to act if they are hearing two contradicting sides to a story, especially when one of thos sides is basically coming from someone who is like family to you.

You can blame all you want. Zach Smith is a shithead, Courtney Smith isn’t exactly an angel in this case either. Urban could’ve handled it better, but people are human and make mistake. There’s nothing here that indicates he should lose his job, end of story. I’m glad he didn’t.

The irony is that half the people who are calling for Urban’s job probably care less than Urban about domestic violence. They literally just want to see him go down for the sake of it; or they’re just stupid Michigan fans.

Zach Smith was arrested for battery on a pregnant woman after he brought a female co-worker home from a party and Courntey Smith went ballistic and shoved her. She was upset as most husbands or wives would if your spouse brought a boot call home to fuck. She declined to testify 8 days later. The woman was trying to salvage the marriage but he was arrested.

I'm still not sure why you're bashing Courtney Smith? You haven't showed she lied about anything.

Uh, Urban's "Special Assistant to the Head Coach" went to a restaurant and convinced the woman not to press charges (he sounds like he has great morals) in 2009.
This is a fact that is not in dispute.

There were no "conflicting" sides regarding the 2009 incident.

You spend a lot of time here lying. Why?

Urban getting fired was never even discussed. Ohio State only cares about one thing, Winning! Urban Meyer is a “call him what you wanna” kinda guy, but he Wins!

Where’s Shelley Meyer?

Did Urban know that? This is all I’m saying.

You can’t fire someone based on what you think could be true. You can’t prove that urban knew the extent of what was going on, that’s a fact. And that’s enough to get him off the hook. It has to be certain, like “urban 100% knew this, this this.

People wanted Urban to be fired based on the texts to Shelley. THATS INSANE. How can you prove that shelley told everything to urban? That’s an assumption, with absolutely ZERO evidence. It’d be comical to fire him over that.

i haven’t lied once on this thread.

People are on here acting like Urban knew every possible detail of Zach and Courtney’s relationship. It’s so ridiculous. I even acknowledged that he could’ve handled it better, but Jesus Christ you can’t just accuse this guy of trying to protect a monster.

Btw Jeff Snook is about 10000000% more reliable than Brian McMurphy. McMurphy is an attention whore of a reporter.

No dude. They want him fired for hiring a domestic abuser, ignoring the fact the cops had been called to the Smith's house 9 times, not firing Smith until the media reported on his abuse and lying about it at Big 10 Media Day.

Oh by the way, they want him fired for not reporting the alleged abuse via Title IX reporting requirements.

This is why they want him fired. Ignore it if you want.

Stop criticizing him and criticize Smith and Meyer. This is a cultural issue.

His reporting has been 100% accurate.

At the end of the day, Urban should face a penalty for violating terms of his contract. And he’s doing that.

My defense of Meyer is based on two things:

-It’s reasonable to question the credibility and motives of Courtney Smith to some degree based on Snook’s accurate reporting.
-It’s reasonable to think Urban didn’t know as much as people accuse of him of knowing

If Urban went out of his way to actively hide someone who HE BELIEVED was a chronic woman abused, then he should be fired. But I genuinely believe Urban was in a murky position and as a result, he made a human mistake in judgment. I think he’s a good guy who was too loyal to someone who he wrongly trusted and was like family to him. As a result he made a mistake, but shouldn’t lose his job over it
