Keeping his job, and is letting his suspension be the time he has already served.


Sad and sickening.

His suspension was paid leave. Three weeks of forced paid leave sounds pretty good to me even if it was considered "punishment".

Hey kids you're in 'time out', now go sit in front of that t.v. LOL

the whole thing is crazy. NO ONE went down. Sure the AD got suspended as well but no one is held accountable for allowing the douchebag (smith) to keep his job all this time? Maybe meyer really followed proper protocol of reporting it.... but why did no one do anything? Oh well it's done and over with

This is one of the crazier things I've seen in sports. Meyer was not at all sorry towards Courtney Smith. That's the sad part.

OSU investigation shows
"members of football staff" were aware Zach Smith "was engaged in sexual relationship w/football secretary.
took sexually explicit photographs of himself in offices & at White House in April 2015.
& had sex-related toys delivered to him at OSU office"


Three things that linger from that report:
Urban Meyer never mentioning Zach Smith's 2009 arrest to anyone at Ohio State, even in '15.
Urban seeming to delete his old texts.
Media Days debacle attributed to memory loss from a medication he takes?

I can't wait for the first Ohio State gameday :pop:

I honestly don't think this is going away... Pressure is still mounting against OSU.

McMurphy isn't backing down. It blows my mind Urban has gotten off so easy on all this. I also don't know if it is over with yet or not.


I like how Brett is handling it... Pressure bursts pipes. Either OSU will get enough info that keeps coming out and fire him (esp the deleted txt) and or Urban will step down. But I think he has to much of a ego to step down from this.

He got off for 73 reasons they only had 8 reasons to fire him.

College sports are a business. A 73-8 record at Ohio State means you can do what you want.


Tressel got fired for tattoo gate. He was very very successful at OSU as well.

Yes sir, but he broke NCAA rules so there were sanctions coming that would hurt the program. Meyers issues are more of a moral thing that won't hurt the program. If I remember right what started it as an investigation in tattoo gate started uncovering other violations. Getting rid of Sweater Vest probably helped make the NCAA happy

And this is bringing up other things as well.... Deleting txt is a no no!!! Tressel could have been suspended but they fired him ASAP. Why? Bcse Meyer was available.

No way this story is going away. Urban will get asked about it for months.



I think it will weigh on Urban as it keeps being talked about throughout the season. May finish the year and call it quits.
