He’s the best offense of weapon for one the best teams in the nation It’s more likely Tom would leave for Ohio State than Dobbins leaving for Texas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramssuperbowl99 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 ElevenWarriors writer just tweeted this was an open secret Urban's screwed. If everybody really knew, his primary concern might shift to trying to get OSU to honor the majority of his contract. The alternative is that OSU conducts an investigation, and Day 1 they get all his texts, phone calls, and e-mails. They interview him, his wife, any remaining members of the staff, and any other employee who is a mandated reporter, and cross reference it with their records. And everything they get, writers can get with FOIA requests as long as it's a noteworthy story (read: as long as Urban's employed). This is going to be a never ending **** mudslide. If OSU is smart, they wade 2 feet into this, realize how bad it smells, and cut ties. If Urban is smart, which he is, he realizes his leverage here is a quiet resignation where he still gets paid and his wife doesn't get in any trouble.

winitall Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 If you have any faith in humanity left, do not go visit Bucknuts right now (OSUs 247 site). Some of the comments are extremely disturbing to read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would his wife have to worry about avoiding getting in trouble? im curious on what Gene Smith knows about this all? Matt Campbell? Next HC at tOSU? Also Ramzy is taking a lot of heat for not doing anything about. He said he knew of things but didn’t want to do the leg work on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelley Meyer is both an OSU employee and an RN, so she's a mandated reporter. And you're correct. If Urban/Shelley funneled this up to Gene Smith and he did nothing, then it's his *** in the jackpot. But do we really think an AD is going to cover up something like this when the head coach offers up his assistant on the chopping block? Realistically, this ended with Urban.

Well didn’t smith’s Wife file a report on all of this, meaning Shelly wouldnt have to file anything if a police report was already started Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're a reporter, you have a seriously influential story, and you bury it because filing court requests is out of your league? Okay, go find someone who will.

He didn’t want to ruin his life becuase he is an tOSU fan, I believe a Columbus guy, and prolly didn’t want to be known as the guy who potentially took down Urbz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm legally obligated to tell you this", you fire him. Done and over. Gene Smith had no loyalty to Zach Smith here, Urban did since it was Zach Smith's family that gave him his big break into coaching. Only one of these parties has any motive that I can think of to cover this up. By the way, can we get a mod to make this it's own topic?

It’s kinda similar at Penn st, they had no reason to hold onto the guy except he was just really really good at his job. I think Gene Smith knew about it and he didn’t step in either. The only out I see them potentially having is since there were never formal charges they are going to ride that excuse. That’s the only thing I see. It’s not great but it’s the only thing so let’s start a short list of candidates Tom Herman Matt Campbell Greg Schiano DJ Durkin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense financially since they'd have to cough up a fairly huge buyout for anybody else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would really be something if/when they replace someone who covered up/didn't report a domestic abuse with someone who allegedly covered up/didn't report pedophilia.
