Are kids that we’re known to be “bought” damaged goods? For example. If someone like leal suddenly flips. Wouldn’t that then raise questions about us?

Methinks there will be some long term repercussions for this. But it will be subtle. Hard to actually quantify. Like maybe the next Garrett Wilson goes elsewhere because mama can’t deal. It it doesn’t appear that current recruits give a crap

Siap Brian Jones makesp bold prediction about the longhorns.

What do we expect jimbo to say? “Truth be told we probably won’t even be bowl eligible. So best stop buying and planning to come to see us play any home games. And other than are two fcs games at home. We won’t win many home games either. And you know what? We should just tell our current recruiting class that we suck real bad so they get there alternate plans cued up as well.”

Seems like If they can’t agree. Urban loses leverage. Every day without an agreement he isn’t coaching.

Apparently Meyer wants to be fired OR reinstated. He will under no circumstances accept a suspension THIS is the holdup. According to finebaum

LSU is also on the hook for aranda over next 4 years. 2.5 mil/yr. entire deal is guaranteed. Maybe they just just stick an interim tag on aranda. Already paying him head coach money.

For the record. Orlando makes more as our DC than the current UH head coach.

They shouldn’t fire the president because he took ownership. Theh should fire him because he did nothing for 30 days and sat on his ass when they could’ve resolved this much earlier.

If the Vegas line were 3 weeks suspension. Over or under? Id take over. I think 4 weeks or he gone. Two weeks just doesn’t seem to be of any consequence. More than 4 and they probably just let him go.

According to mcmurphy today is just a release of the report. Not the decision from the president on what he’ll do with it.

When mcmurphy was asked what he thought would happen with urban, he replied. “Depends whether the osu president wants to be a true leader or a cheerleader”.

Don’t think he’s sitting on it so much as the fact he keeps getting new leads and he keeps investigating. Much more to come. And Ohio state cannot risk that.

With all the gay merchandise. Makes sense that he was developing and recruiting the nations most elite WIDE RECEIVERS. Nttiawwt

If he did it all above board then there would be zero reason to lie and obfuscate and downplay 9 times at the presser. If if you don’t have said paper trail. How do you justify keeping him?

I think we are complicating this. Urban knew about the beatings in 2009. He hired him again in 2012. Probably deapite major concerns from other higher ups. He assured them no more issues. Then police calls come in 2012. DUI in 2013. Police reports in 2015. If urban admits issues. He appears the fool for hiring him to begin with. The small lie keeps growing and he keeps digging a deeper grave. I still can’t see how urban survives this.

The mother responded to one of mcmurphys posts. Anyone check out her Facebook profile. Um..... let’s just say that she’s a huge buckeye fan. You see her in the stands. You see her wearing the gear on other occasions and you see her trying to procure tickets to other games. All this in 2016 and 2017 Seems clear what side mama is really on

Mcmurohy reported that there was an arrest in 2015 that Powell police department later changed their report. Whether an arrest occurred or not is irrelevant because Courtney alleges that she did report the 2015 events to Urbans wife and others and no university report was done. And according to title ix that is a requirement no?

Never said that the abuse only began in 2015. But by Courtney’s own testimony, all the wives knew was based on 2015 incident and that is when she was upset that nobody from university responded.

The arrest records are from 2015. Not 2014.

Whole mom story sounds made up.

Latest from mcmurphy. Interesting that still no answers from the school concerning urbane wife. Less than two months before Ohio State WR coach Zach Smith was investigated in 2015 for domestic violence and felonious assault against Courtney Smith, Shelley Meyer was a featured speaker at a Birmingham, Ala., conference to draw awareness to the ongoing fight to eradicate domestic violence. The conference – “College Football Wives 2015” – was in August 2015 and featured eight wives of prominent coaches speaking against domestic violence. The event was part of a public awareness campaign called “Refuse The Abuse” – and came less than two months before Zach Smith’s alleged domestic violence on Courtney Smith on Oct. 25, 2015. “With our coaching staff and Urban, disrespecting women or any violence toward women is one of the rules of the team that is not acceptable," Shelley Meyer told AL.com on Aug. 8, 2015. Despite multiple domestic violence allegations against Zach Smith, he remained with the program until he was fired July 23, 2018. Urban Meyer said last month during Big Media Days that he and his wife, Shelley, “counseled” Zach and Courtney Smith in 2009 after Zach Smith was arrested on domestic violence charges – aggravated assault against a pregnant victim. Courtney was 10 weeks pregnant at the time. “She’s (Shelley) always weighed in as my best friend and soul mate,” Urban said at Big Ten Media Days on July 24. “She’s been right there with everything. Especially when you’re dealing with – not who’s going to carry the ball on third down, she has an opinion on that too – we chat about people. She has a great spirit. A great love of people. Her heart is always in the right place. She’s phenomenal. Absolutely I rely on her.” Courtney told me she refused to press charges in 2009 after Meyer’s longtime “life coach” Hiram de Fries convinced her to drop the charges. Courtney said last month she had multiple conversations and text message exchanges with Shelley about Zach’s domestic violence in 2015. Courtney also shared pictures of her abuse with Shelley. In a 2015 text message to Courtney, Shelley said she was concerned for Courtney’s safety: ““I am with you! A lot of women stay hoping it will get better. I don’t blame you! But just want u to be safe. Do you have a restraining order? He scares me.” On Aug. 1, Ohio State announced it was investigating Urban Meyer and the investigation was expected to be completed within 14 days. In an interview with (614) magazine, published Jan. 5, 2015, Shelley proudly discussed her ability to help people with their “tragic situations.” “I’m a psychiatric nurse, for God’s sake,” Shelley told the magazine. “All I do is help people problem-solve, help them with their social issues, their personal tragic situations, real life stuff.” Meanwhile, Ohio State University, since last Friday, has refused to respond to multiple public record requests inquiring about the employment status of Shelley Meyer, who is a part-time instructor of clinical practice at the university’s College of Nursing. At 12:58 p.m. Monday, Benjamin Johnson and Christopher Davey, of Ohio State’s public information office, assured the information would be provided “very soon.” As of the publishing of this story Tuesday afternoon, Ohio State has still not fulfilled this public information request concerning Shelley Meyer, a state employee. Shelley Meyer could have violated the school’s Sexual Misconduct Policy and potentially Title IX, if she did not notify her supervisor of Courtney Smith’s repeated abuse. The school, however, announced Urban Meyer had been placed on paid administrative leave on Aug. 1.

McMurphy with a new Facebook post 30 minutes ago. Nothing earth shattering. But it’s new as it gets Ohio State's investigation of Urban Meyer and what he knew about the 2015 domestic violence allegations of former wide receivers coach Zach Smith is expected to be completed in 14 days, the school announced late Sunday night. What does this mean? It's very simple: Meyer is not going away. He's obviously fighting for his job and not willing at this point to accept a settlement from the university. On Friday, he released a statement via his own Twitter account, and not through the university's public relations department. The newly convened, independent working group - formed by the university’s Board of Trustees to direct the investigation involving Meyer - met late last week, appointed a chair and engaged an investigative firm, the school said. Former Ohio House Speaker Jo Ann Davidson will serve as chair of the working group, which includes former acting U.S. Deputy Attorney General Craig Morford, former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Ohio Carter Stewart and current university trustees Alex Fischer, Janet Porter and Alex Shumate. The group was formed to direct the work of the investigative team and be available to provide consultation and advice, and to assist with communication to the full board on the matter. Decisions about actions, based on the findings of the investigation, will be made by the president of the university in consultation with the Board of Trustees. Former Chair of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Mary Jo White will lead the investigative team. White is a senior chair with the national law firm Debevoise & Plimpton and is a former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York. “Ohio State is committed to a thorough and complete investigation,” Davidson said. “We look forward to sharing the results of this investigation and any action the university may take.” Ohio State opens the 2018 season against Oregon State on Sept. 1 - 27 days from now. If Meyer remains head coach, he would return (based on the investigative timeline) about two weeks before the season opener. Ryan Day was named the interim coach when Meyer was placed on paid administrative leave on Aug. 1, the same day I reported that Meyer had knowledge of Smith's domestic violence allegations - despite his denial of any knowledge the previous week at Big Ten media days. Two days after Meyer was placed on paid administrative leave, he issued a statement on Aug. 3 and reversed course, indicating he lied to the media, had knowledge of the incident but did “elevate the (domestic violence) issues to the proper channels.”
