Maybe so, but only because the media are a bunch of drama queens. This isn't Meyer's fault. It really has nothing to do with him. If my boss fired me for something that was none of his business I would sue the shite out of him. I dated a bi-polar chick who lied about me doing shite that I never did. This may be the dumbest 'scandal' I have ever heard about.

once again conflating the personal/criminal aspect with the coaching/program/university aspect. i already explained what urban should have done.

why do programs dismiss players who fail drug tests?

Urban would be better if he’d just STFU to the media, get his arse back to work and let this drama fade out like a fart in the wind. Anything he says will be construed and blow out of proportion. Why talk to the media if you are contractually obligated?

He should have told her to go to the cops or shut the frick up. I'm not conflating anything. If Urban is going to take it upon himself to be the judge and jury then he is opening himself up to a lawsuit. He may have asked the guy if he did it and was told no.

I don't know, maybe whoever wrote the rules didn't want a team taking PED's to have an advantage, why are you changing the subject?

apparently, he passively did that. now, he's branded a certifiable scumbag

dismissing the coach would not make him any of the above. i already explained how he could have taken the high road, helped the couple and saved face for the program/university. i'm sorry it's too complicated for you

this question explains why the concept is escaping your grasp. it's called an analogy

you totally missed the point. you know coaches try to get away with it when they can. yet, they STILL dismiss players. why? when you get this right, you'll understand why urban is in such hot water.

Why would he agree to be interviewed by Rinaldi?

Here is a little analogy for you, if he didn't break her legs she can act like a normal person walk her miserable arse up to the POPO station and file a report, then Urban can fire him. Is she incapable of filing a report? People do it all the time when they are physically accosted. I don't believe her. I think the pics were fabricated. She is probably a liberal.

I don't know which photos you're looking at but the ones I've seen don't indicate that she was beaten. He has more injuries on his body than she does.
And as far as the people saying she needs to press charges, I'm not sure what the law is in Florida but in Ohio it has nothing to do with her. If the police see anything that makes them think he beat her then they're obligated to arrest and charge him. It's not even remotely her decision. The fact he wasn't charged is telling.
I most certainly don't condone domestic violence but people keep acting like this guy obviously beat the shite out of her multiple times and there just doesn't seem to be much evidence of that. Seems to have just been a toxic relationship all around.

What a lot of people don’t know is that Ohio law also does not require the alleged victim of domestic violence to press charges in order to make an arrest. What this means is that even if the alleged victim does not want to press charges, law enforcement agents have the authority to arrest the alleged perpetrator.

In all fairness, I should have chosen a different word than 'obligated'. I don't believe law enforcement is under any absolute obligation to do anything in those situations. The point I was trying to make is that in Ohio they don't need the victim to press charges in order to file them. In many other states they do. This is to prevent abused women from protecting their abusers by saying she just fell down the stairs. It's out of the victim's hands. They don't even need her continued involvement in order to go through with the prosecution. Short of the police actually covering for him because he was an OSU coach, I don't believe police would have just let him walk after bloodying his wife's nose or giving her a black eye, even if she swears he didn't do it.
This was all covered in some of the better-written articles about the whole case.

If OSU's recruiting isn't effected by this then we'll all know that the world is truly an unfair place.

He kept talking about himself in the 3rd person.

I hope so.

OSU fans should feel dirty for rooting for a team coached by him. I'm not even sure if he should be fired for the Zach Smith stuff.

But it's just too obvious that he is a horribly shitty person.
