Investigation completed: Meyer suspended three games

Just checked the Ohio State 247 board. The top thread is one started by a staff member of that board:

McMurphy admitted to our own Dave Biddle on Carpenter and Rothman that someone gave him a tip to go look at Ohio State and look at Zach Smith because he has a history of domestic violence that would be a good story.

Someone set this up from the start, McMurphy said he originally could not find any information on Smith and this entire issue. The Dispatch said the same because the docs were sealed in court. So someone close to the situation put him on the right trail. So he then was given the contact info of Courtney and filed open records request. Courtney called him back several times from burner phones stating that she had a vetting process to make sure McMurphy could be trusted. So Courtney invited him to Columbus for 3 days.

Zach is a major POS but I'm now in the camp this all started as a set-up.

Apparently, a journalist getting a tip is somehow breaking news. Glad they managed to admit Zach Smith is a POS at the end of the post though.

And one of the replies:

i'm tellin' you man, this whole thing is a political hit job. there's NO WAY ohio rep. jim jordan getting hammed for some random nothing burger that happened 20 years ago and now this fake news slander attack on urban meyer are not connected.

both happened right before the 2018 mid-term elections take place and BOTH of them are getting attacked by THE SAME leftist #METOO political movement garbage that hillary ran on and the DEMs REFUSE to left go of.

and we all know espn, for the most part, are a bunch of liberal cuck male feminist manginas already. they hates ohio state and see the university as easy pickins because osu fires all it's great coaches over nothing, that means easy political victory for a group of aggressive anarchists, socialists and cultural marxists who never reciprocate good will and truth and instead exploit it for political advantage.

Conservative media is a dangerous thing.

ESPN gets lambasted by everyone for not running the story that is published by a reporter they recently had an ugly breakup with.
OSU fans take: Liberal ESPN bastards hate OSU and this is a hit job!!
 
Anyone know anything about these people doing the investigation?

The group will be composed of three current members of the board of trustees (Alex Fischer, Janet Porter and Alex Shumate), as well as three people not associated with the university (former Ohio House Speaker Jo Ann Davidson, former acting U.S. Deputy Attorney General Craig Morford and former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Ohio Carter Stewart).

Lol, why is that poster ripping ESPN? If anything ESPN has a financial incentive to make this go away and keep Urban around.

Yeah, ummmmmmmm that nonsense is straight out of a Trump rally, and let's not forget that ESPN laid off McMurphy. I don't think Jim Jordan possibly covering up or ignoring (I don't know enough about that story to speak intelligently on it) abuse during his tenure as a wrestling coach there has anything to do with Meyer's people trying to pressure the wife of an assistant coach into not pressing DV charges or the fact that Urban re-hired this pig when he got the OSU job. Its about as flimsy as their use of the Joe Tumpkin situation as a way to make themselves feel better.

Honestly though this is about as good as he can hope for right now.

Admit that he told a lie at media days to reporters and admit he did know, but also say that he did report it correctly at the time. Now it doesn't look like he covered it up at the time. Pin the blame on those above him that they didn't make him fire Smith. He is still a POS and should have fired Smith himself but now he can say that he followed protocols and there were never found guilty of anything so they didn't fire him. I actually think his chance of staying the coach just went way up.
 
So now he's admitting that he did report everything correctly back in 2015, even though the whole issue at hand is surrounding whether he even knew about it?? Huh??

Wut?

You either knew about it or did not. Where does prep come into play?

in how you answer the question. the goal was to avoid lying while not saying anything definitive. he failed in that and seems to be stating that if he had prepared more, he could've responded like a politician.

Yeah, I think his only move is to admit the lie and somehow come up with the proof that he did report it.

But he was going to BIG 10 MEDIA DAYS already. No impromptu press conference or anything. To be caught off guard by one of the most obvious questions on the docket is laughable.

It does nothing to explain why Zach Smith was kept on staff for another three years.
