Never.

We're playing on an uneven field, kids. We're banning guys for a game for TRYING NOT TO DRIVE DRUNK, and aOSU is giving three games to a HEAD COACH who intentionally protected a wife beater and ignored Title IX (which is apparently only a sacred cow when it's eliminating men's tennis programs across the country).
But I'm sure Jim Delaney will step in and fix thiAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA sorry I crack myself up he's swimming in B1G Network money like Scrooge McDuck.
Joe Mixon punched that chick so hard her kids are going to have a tilt when they walk and Boob Stoops swept it under the rug and tried to lie it away. And everyone here worships that shit pile.I'm in no way sticking up for Urban Meyer but all major universities are guilty of stuff like this. Football is king and unless something happens where a crime was committed (in this case nobody has been convicted of a crime and both parties have alleged physical abuse by their spouse) people are going to walk about with a slap on the wrist.
This even happens at Iowa. In 1998 Eric Thigpen got in trouble for roughing up his girlfriend and Fry didn't do a thing to him.
Right here’s where I told ya so...

Yeah there was no following up on that questioning at all they ended it all there. After all this hoopla they never got to the bottom of when did he find out about those?? No Fn way can he in one breath say back in 09 or whatever that he and his wife helped them with marriage counseling and then say when his wife got those pics in 15 or whenever that she never showed them to him or spoke to him about it...That one reporter who asked Urban if he knew of the texts that his wife received from Smith's wife, and Urban said "I never knew of those texts." How can Urban expect anyone to believe this?!?!?
You say cynicism; I say pragmatism...Yay! Cynicism wins again.
He’ll stonewall and walk out. They’re required to talk to media but no one says what they have to talk about.Its going to be fun watching Urban squirm all season during press conferences.
I bet it is. His contract is up at the end of 2020. He’ll just pull a Bob Stoops and retire so he doesn’t have to answer for his hot garbage mistakes.This isn't over yet folx. Its not over yet.
pop some popcorn because the show is getting ready to start.
Yeah I think he was forced to say something like that. I think OSUs lawyers and legal department didn't want him admitting to a single thing in regards to her. They don't want her coming at them for anything and for this to go away. That's a hell of a way to treat someone he was supposedly helping give marriage counseling to years ago..When asked what he would say to Courtney Smith, he replied, "I would say I'm sorry we're in this situation."
So in his mind, he is now just as much a victim as she.
My gawd, has this man no humanity??

How the media hasn't made a bigger issue over the fact that there's no way Urban didn't know about those is beyond me. So his wife who has been friends with Courtney for YEARS receives those texts and communicates back to her with her concern for her chose not to tell Urban anything about it.. They helped them with marriage counseling (to whatever degree that was) along with just the years on years period of time they all knew each other just makes his story of 'not knowing' about them total BS. Maybe that was apart of his 'forgetting' of stuff that they mentioned due to whatever meds he's on. I mean if his memory is that bad that can't be a good thing for a football coach at this level they might want to revisit that line of thinking...People ask why she didn't leave. She was terrified of him, she made it clear. Also abuse victims develop a strange way of relating for survival. Courtney also was afraid of losing her kids as she had no money and Zach did (as well as well off friends in the event of a divorce/custody battle. The full texting between UM's wife and her is very sad.
Well that was the easy part. "The" Ohio State board of Trustees do an "investigation", they slap Urban's wrist. He takes a little public humiliation, then it's back to Buckeye football! Nothing to see here! Laughable comedy. No lack of ethical conduct worth more than say, 3 non conference games. Hopefully Urban and Smith can get partial unemployment. My only hope is a recruit or two parents actually find this repulsive and don't invite Urban and company into their living rooms. Who am I kidding? Most of them would probable send them to Hitler youth camp if it would help their pro chances. Wow, am I cynic or a realist? I don't know anymore.
