Ohio has a strong journalism program so I expect the full truth will come out soon enough.
Yeah. Those journalism students will crack the case.

Just came out that he was caught drinking on the job. I get professionalism, but firing someone because you found a small whiskey bottle in their office trash can sounds a little excessive

I believe this is the “cause” Ohio University is using to cover up the actual reason, which the university either didn’t have concrete proof of and/or they didn’t use to avoid a wrongful termination. Basically they’re getting him on a technicality to avoid a buyout. Brian Smith’s lawyer is pressing back on this, but it’s possible Ohio has them on this technicality.
This could get ugly/uglier. If this was a P4 school this would be a pretty big story, as Smith has won most of his games in just a short amount of time in Athens. I just hope the whole truth comes out as a lot of people need to be he’d accountable in their positions.

That wouldn’t surprise me either. The alcohol story sounded absurd from the start

I'd like to know the percentage of head coaches who are alcoholics. It seems quite high.

As a football coach at a university, you're more or less always on the clock. If this were an issue, you would practically be expected to never drink. Im not buying this.

The letter also said Smith acknowledged "on occasion, a few assistant coaches, all over the age of 21, joined him privately in his office after games for a single drink of bourbon."
WTF!
