Yeh I realize he got fired
This whole thing, I'm just not following it.


If Urban Meyer reported it, I'd assume the university investigated it. If this is so, then they obviously didn't find anything worthy of firing him. So then why exactly did he get fired last week?

I feel like there's just something, or things I don't know about this story that I'm missing.

His lawyer sucks. that is an awful statement.


It is pretty terrible.

But if his plan is to fight, it’s probably the best he can do.

Unhappy marriage? Lol

Having a situation in which two married drunks keep having incidents with the police absolutely can get you fired

Especially when you are expendable in a business in the public eye

He's not going anywhere.

At most, a suspension.

That tends to happen when one or more parties in the story is actively spinning a web out of bull ish.

Everything coming from Urban’s camp just elicits more questions.

You don't get suspended with pay for lying at Big Ten media days.

Urban seems to be passing the buck to whomever he told.

Absolutely agree.

What I am most surprised by, is why Urban kept him on staff. I'm not even remotely saying to fire him, I'm saying get him the hell away. Recommend him for some other jobs at other schools. Give him the chance to fix his marriage elsewhere.

Keeping him on his staff for that long, that's what makes me think there's more to it.

Having an unhappy marriage isn’t grounds for termination nor would it create this current shite storm

Urban actually admitted that at Big Ten media days. He said the public knowing played a part in the decision to fire him.

Because the incident that brought this into spotlight (violating a restraining order) happened a couple weeks ago.

None of that is relevant to you falling on your face. Admit that you fricked it up, and then we can talk more.
