What this indicates is:
1. Meyer knew a long tenured employee was physically assaulting his wife (while pregnant at one point)
2. Smith reported the incidents to police but always fell short of pressing charges because people close to Meyer (Bruce and de Fries as quoted in the article) convinced her to drop the charges to save Zach’s coaching career
3. Virtually the entirety of the Ohio St coaching staff (or st the very least the wives) knew what was happening
4. At best Meyer did nothing and at worst he knew about people talking the wife out of pursuing DV charges
5. Urban is an awful liar
Ultimately, the Title IX threat/claim seems baseless but at best Urban’s questionable reputation is even more sullied and at worst Ohio State takes drastic action and fires him

Of course he did wrong. Doing nothing is wrong. Covering for an abuser is wrong. However, Urbs isn't going anywhere. The OSU Alumni are too many, too strong and he wins too much. He's untouchable.

I am sure that sounded good in your mind, but a lawyer would tear that a part.

This seems awful similar to the Joe Paterno defense...

I’m thinking people are more concerned that he may have known about the abuse than they are about lying to the media.
In a lot of ways both are connected to the lie, we don't know he knew about it without someone providing proof that he lied.
It may seem strange but many are way more forgiving of a bad act if someone immediately owns up to it, they can sometimes even gather some sympathy if done in the right way. You lose all chance of that if caught in a lie. The lie can easily become the bigger story. If they prove he lied, everyone is going to wonder about anything else he has said when an issue comes up.

If you are aware of potential domestic violence, sexual assault, etc - and you don't do anything, then you are comitting Misprison Of Felony.
The burden of proof is on the prosecution in such cases and is thus VERY rarely pursued.
In orde to get a conviction for misprision of a felony, you must show that the defendant had actual direct knowledge of the crime. They either had to witness it, the felon had to confess to them, etc.
Hearing accusations is nowhere near enough to qualify.

At least we all agree that urban is hypocritical low life pos and deserves 7 times the beatings Courtney took

But, everyone told Tennessee fans we were wrong for not wanting Schiano because if he did anything wrong he wouldn't be working at Ohio State.........

Tennessee looked dumb because they didn't do the research, which should have been done before "hiring" him.

Courtney sounds like a nasty bitch unsympathetic to secretary in 09 which started it
You are so right. I can't believe she was so mad that her husband who came home at 3am with one of urbans drunk secretary's raising hell. Having to wake up and drive this drunk lady home that early while being 8-9 months pregnant was so unnecessary. I guess she deserved to be choked and thrown against the wall.
You see how silly this looks right?

Assuming most of the information is true and can be backed up. He is going to have to face something from Ohio St IMO. Don't think it will be a firing but some type of suspension.

I don't remember anyone adding the part at the end. I think it was more the mass hysteria that was the issue with Vol fans when everyone else knew it was fake and simply because he's not who you deemed good enough for your program.

At 3 am the secretary gets a bed ..Zach sleeps in their bed..no problem...she drives the secretary home.. husband rules the roost at that time she bucked it ..it's evil vs evil going forward both destroyable

Everyone said you were wrong because y'all thought Schiano was a shitty coach and pretended to care about his history to keep him from becoming HC.

Is anyone surprised a staff that includes two assistants from Penn State's 90s defensive staff covered something up?
