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


Wasn’t he just dropping the kids off at her place (which he wasn’t allowed to be at)?

I guess it’s plausible, but would be extremely odd if the thing that gets him fired is the only non-violent thing he’s being accused of.

The Reuben Foster situation created a shitstorm too.


He’s a player not a CEO

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.


They weren't even together during the 2015 incident. She filed for divorce a few weeks later.

Still kept him around. It's perplexing. I mean Ray Rice and Peterson happened in 2014 and Baylor was in 2015. It's not like you weren't aware of the severity of these things.

You're being very passive aggressive here, but your posts are insinuating that we know he beat his wife because if he didn't, it wouldn't have caused this kind of shitstorm. That's the only logical takeaway from reading your last few posts one can come away with.

Again, Reuben Foster disagrees with that.

Zach Smith is on ESPN claiming he didn't do a thing and trying to save Urban's job.

Zach Smith told @1057TheZone he never abused Courtney. Here is text message b/w Zach & Courtney when he admits & apologizes for strangling his wife on Punta Cana trip in March 2015 & again in April

I never liked Urban Meyer. He is one of few who can hold his own against nick saban.

Urban fricked up. Ohio state values winning at all costs. If this happened at Utah, Cum would have been gone.

Lsupride doesn't think Smith abused her, even though Smith agrees he choked her.

Cool.

If he reported the incident in 2015 and that can be corroborated then he’s fine. I don’t even know why he would have been suspended.

How many different schools need a scandal for people to understand that every fanbase will act like this? People defend their guy.

Which is the crazy part, no doubt.

ETA - I mean, Urban said he even called people at the office to ask about a 2015 incident and they had no anything happened.

Now he's saying it was reported.

I actually believe him that he reported it, but that's the most ridiculous lie you can tell.

I find it very hard to believe that he lied like he did, if he did actually turn it in.

An experienced public speaker like him knows damn well how to deflect or refuse to answer at this time. Maybe it was a momentary screw up. But who knows.


Because it sounds better that he didn't know rather than he knew and still kept the guy on his staff regardless if he reported it.

Media would be even more incredulous - so what if you reported it - the fact is you knew and kept an alleged wife-beater on your staff.

Zach Smith is now on ESPN SportsCenter. He said in 2015 that Meyer asked him about marital issues. "He said, 'Swear to God Zach, if you hit her, you're done.'"
