Urban Meyer knew of domestic abuse in 2015
- Thread starter Colonel Homer
- Start date
I live in Columbus. I would expect OSU to come out with some statement this afternoon. The players report for fall camp tomorrow. This has to be resolved now. I would not be surprised if a change is made. Schiano would probably be named as an interim coach. Kevin Wilson would also be considered. I have no inside information just my gut feeling.
Well what will be in dispute is the "he knew" part. It looks like the woman was texting Urban's wife and other coaches' wives, but nothing I've seen says those were going to Urban. Of course, it strains credulity that Urban's wife didn't discuss this with her own husband.
I really don’t see how Urban can survive this. It’s a hell of a black eye for the program. And those photos don’t help at all. They take things beyond a story and make it real. They makes it personal to people.
Check out @SteveDeaceShow’s Tweet:
I hate to give Deace credit for anything, but he brings up a very good point with the Title IX violation.
I assume you mean Wisconsin.
His name has been mentioned as a future OSU coach even before this development.

This would not be nearly enough to bring down a president, but it may well be enough to bring down a college football coach.
I truly don’t think Urban walks away from this.
https://iowa.forums.rivals.com/forums/off-topic.10/ great place for you to talk about presidents. Take that chit over there.
The media is going to have a hay day attacking Urban with this. It won't be just using the information for this specific situation, they will go back with the AH situation and use that to add fuel to the fire that this is normal behavior for one Urban Meyer.
My prediction is that this will get so ugly that ESPN won't even hire him as an analyst.

Greg Schiano!!! Didn't he get run outta Knoxville before he ever stepped on campus. That's it fire a coach for covering up spousel abuse and replace him with a guy who covered up for a pedophile. Big problems in Columbus
No way he didn't know about it. Especially since he knew the guy was an abuser as far back as 2009 and yet he still hired him to coach OSU and then covered up for him. WTF is wrong with Meyer?
Prediction. She takes one for the team and says it was all her fault and she kept it from her husband.
Not sure if you can replace a spousal abuse with an accused player abuser in Wilson. That said, nothing at O$U comes as a big surprise.
Maybe, maybe not a sociopath. Good chance part of it was out of some twisted idea of "debt" he felt for Earl Bruce hiring him. That, and the guy is a scumbag.
The times they are a changing.
To me this is a coin flip, but with the condition of America today, I’d make a small even money wager that UM is gone.
But lots of reasons to believe he survives.

I just read the report. I don't think he can survive it either, especially with his wife being an OSU employee.
Those guys aren't honorable and pure like Kirk.

College coaches (from the head coach down to the lowest assistant) know everything that these kids/coaches/faculty/parents/etc do/are doing.
He is going to throw his wife under the bus so hard he may need tommy john surgery afterwards.
Oh heck yes ... there is no way Urban would be kicked to the curb for this ... yes, it's significant ... but Buckeye faithful won't part with Playoff appearances all in the name of domestic violence... Sadly, it's the world we live in. Win, and you are God at some schools ... The only reason the WR coach was fired was because Urban "had to" fire him for PR purposes ...
The problem is Kirk is like the Pope of coaches. He probably makes sure he puts his used gum in the waste basket.
