Otis Nice Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 Just came to make a post about this. Doesn't look good. Think we can get Tressel back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geeesammy Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 "...Courtney Smith said, adding that she was never told that Shelley Meyer had told the coach about the allegations at the time" He will make it out alive but not unscathed. Call this season even more of a bust now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sully Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 A buddy of mine that works down there says it's a mad-house right now. He was just asked to leave the area and has seen Gene Smith come and go as well as a lot of other people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call this season even more of a bust now And she's claiming that she told other assistant coach's wives as well. You think all of them never said anything to their husbands? This is going to get real ugly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 Unless Shelley Meyer comes out and says to the world that she never told Urban because she KNEW that he would fire Zach....he gone. Either by resignation or firing. And if he DID know about this shit, then he deserves to get canned. It's 2018, y'all. The only parson who can disrespect women like that and get away with it is your president. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKilbourne Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 Is there proof that Smith's ex wife told anyone? Who knows. She probably asked for a pay off and when she didn't get it, she went to the media with her "story". I wonder how much she got for her interview. He wont be gone unless there is proof of a cover up.

The only parson who can disrespect women like that and get away with it is your president. You are letting your emotion rule over the logic of the situation If you are to believe Courtney Smith and the "accusations" then here is a list of people who knew and did nothing, or not enough I guess. Gainesville PD Gainesville DA U of Florida Earle Bruce Urban Meyer Shelly Meyer Powell PD Delaware DA Asst Coach wives Her parents His parents OSU Her attorneys his attorneys Divorce Judge Now that is a lot of "collusion", swamp level haha. I am not trying to marginalize Courtney and what she apparently is having to go through, however let the facts evolve and come out. Stop with the pitch fork emotions and lets break this down. Some of it looks damning, but much or it seems counter to the law/facts/OSU's knowledge. I would hope Urban is not dumb enough to try and Jerry Sandusky level bury something, if he did he deserves to go down with the ship.

DKilbourne Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 There's all kind of text messages floating around right now If any are directly to Meyer, then that's an issue. Otherwise, good luck proving that he knew. I doubt that he was in the dark on it, but that's an opinion not a fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 From the brief listening on the fan today, there is messages between Urbana wife and Courtney. Urbana wife saying she will have to tell urban and Courtney saying that's OK. Something to that effect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 Edit: Urb on administrative leave while they investigate...Still doesn't mean he buried it or is guilty yet, the university is going to separate him while they determine what is happening clearly and that it the right move.

RedRocket1647545505 Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 This social climate we're in drives me nuts. I get that he's held to a higher standard, but it ain't like ole Urb slapped the lady. If it meant that much to her, then go to the police (and maybe she did). Urb's job is to be a head coach at OSU, not a marriage councilor. I hope it works out in his favor. We've got championships to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oh8sti Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 This just stinks.....all of it....smells like she tried to extort more money from him because she ran out of her plastic Surgey, porcelain veneers, stupid shit etc money fund and when she didn’t get it, she went to the Media. Source: former players/friends, coaching staff friends etc that know this situation better than me. Let’s see how this turns out. I hate to see physical abuse (he should have been canned and charged if he abused her) but extortion was the form of abuse she was able to wield to get back at him.

10phone2 Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 It's ironic you said that. Tonight I thought, isn't it ironic that as soon as the rumblings from the past start that she calls the police on him. It's almost as if she wanted to fuck him over or was angling for something. It could also be polar opposite, that he beat her for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Quik7 Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 Per 11Warriors, the guy had some serious issues, how was Urban supposed to know about all the Police encounters? I bet someone at OSU knew well before Urban..Smith shoulda been canned long ago for being so unstable. 2005 ZACH SMITH HIRED AT FLORIDA Urban Meyer hires Zach Smith as a graduate assistant at Florida.

DTA09 Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 A college coach has never came back from paid administrative leave. Unfortunately I think he will be gone within 48 hours. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J326AZ using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
