Nah. Kid obviously did not want to be at Texas.  He should go to the "school" he chose.

Was Smith's wife also employed by Ohio State? Or Florida, when they were in Gainesville? I keep hearing different answers and that may be the deciding factor in whether Meyer had an actual responsibility to report anything or take any action at all.

Yes. She is employed by the Nursing Department at OSU.

I would like for someone to tell me how Urban Meyer is responsible for another grown mans actions outside of the work place. My boss is not responsible for what I do the minute I am off the premises. In this case there were no charges filed so in reality it is a she said he said thing. I don't approve of Domestic Violence and I believe if it is a proven case of abuse then that person should be thrown in the most dangerous prison in the U.S. and all the inmates informed of what he is in there for. In this case, Meyer may have known but if it was just a he said she said thing and no charges were filed in either instance then if Meyer fires Smith because of word of mouth and then it turns out to be false accusations, Smith can turn around and sue the university for wrongful termination. How many times has someone been accused of Domestic Violence and it turned out to be that the person filing the grievance is just trying to make the other look bad. As soon as there is something solid and a charge was filed against Smith, Meyer fired him. Like I said, I am totally against Domestic Violence but wanting to fire Meyer for not firing Smith until he had actual proof, I know the wife had pictures of her neck but that could have been faked, is totally wrong. My wife even thinks it is wrong for what they are doing to Urban Meyer in the press and also does not believe Meyer should be fired. She agrees that Meyer should not be held accountable for another grown mans actions on something that happened outside the work place...….. The Baylor situation is a different story. There was actual proof of incidents and Briles knew about them and chose to cover them up and basically ignore them and had people threaten accusers of losing their scholarships if they told anybody else. If they want to make Meyer think about how he needs to handle a situation like this if anything like this ever arises again, Lord bless it doesn't, then reprimand him and either suspend him a couple of games or fine him a healthy fine...….Everybody in the press wants Urban fired and all he did was wait to fire someone until he had actual proof of a charge against Smith. Nobody is going after Joe Mixon and he beat the Sh_t out of a girl and there is video proof. But, he gets to keep playing football and making millions of dollars to play. I think if the press is going after Meyer like this then they need to jump on the NFL's a$$ and demand Mixon be thrown out for life.

I agree Coach and that’s part of the reason I have a big problem with Title 9.  

Supposedly the police were called to the Smith’s residents 65 times in 1 year with no arrest or charges.  That’s more than once a week!  It seems like they are both nuts. 

If Meyer reported this to his higher ups in 2015 as he mentioned, then he will probably walk and the AD will take the fall.

Columbus radio station saying Herman paid for Courtney Smith’s legal fees

He has not denied that he and his wife provided financial assistance. That's what you do for a friend whose husband is beating her and she wants a divorce.

He did not cover up a Jameis' sexual assault of a female student.

Those who live in glass houses and all.

So wait, Herman, through his wife, helped her friend get out of an abusive situation?  What a scumbag!

    • naw, maaaaybe 7, definitely not 8 deep.  today im avoiding sitting by #10s parents, had to move away yesterday.   "put my son back in jub, put my son back in"  and then crying on every little touch of someone.    lets ball out today ktz!    
    • Very close game until the 2nd half (mostly the 4th) when Orangefield came unraveled. Worse defensive effort I have seen out of the Bobcats in three years. This team has to get back on D and quit getting beat over the top when pressing. Offensively, non ball handlers continually turn it over and their shot selection is poor. Basic basketball, such as: defensive hustle, boxing out, and taking care of the basketball are the areas the Bobcats need to work on most. Whitmire will get them on point, but he shouldn't have to coach effort at the Varsity Level.  We'll be at McNeese this Friday night at 6pm.
    • I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
