Let me ask you this. The reporter indicated the judge is an OSU grad and a member of the OSU's President's Club; is it plausible the judge could have a potential conflict of interest given the fact that Z. Smith [was] a fairly high profile employee of OSU?
Here is my problem with this whole thing. Seems like so many want to crucify Um or some institution for something someone else did and they automatically call it enabling. How many people who are taking such a high moral ground on this "failure to do enough to report it and stop it" are Catholic? If there has been a single entity across the United States that is so guilty of covering up Sexual abuse with no accountability its the Catholic church. Why aren't we arresting or firing all the Bishops and the Pope? What makes Joe Pa any different than those guys? Why is Urban Meyer even being held to a level that they aren't?
Again..….this is nothing about what he did or didn't do by policy. This is about politics. You don't suspend a successful employee and go on a high level 14 day investigation on an incident that he reported to his boss because he might not have reported to the exact person. The court of public opinion has been all over this board with accusations of him enabling Zack Smith. Ohio State was well aware of everything on this and it only became a suspension when it was made a public showcase to go after the money.Again, Urbs is being investigated to determine whether he did (or did not do) something that he was required by both policy and his contract to do. It really has nutt'n to do with what Zach Smith did or didn't do.

Yes, it's extremely petty. I'm right there with ya.I just want to see UM burn. Is that petty? If so, I'm ok with that.
Yes, it's extremely petty. I'm right there with ya.
Actually, I hope he skates through this, and gets taken down in a couple years or so, so HCSF and NU can put some beatdowns on him. That's how petty I am.

So, who really believes Urban is getting fired?
UM can still be fired for cause.
A USA TODAY Sports review of Meyer's contract found there would be other grounds to fire him for cause even if he did what was required in terms of reporting – if Ohio State has the stomach for it. One provision allows him to be fired for “fraud or dishonesty … in the course of his duties or responsibilities.” When Meyer was asked at Big Ten media day about his knowledge of the 2015 allegations, he lied repeatedly.
Another clause allows for his firing if he behaves in a way that reflects “unfavorably upon Ohio State’s reputation and overall primary mission and objectives.” Still another says he can be fired for failing to “perform his duties and personally comport himself at all times in a manner consistent with good sportsmanship and with the high moral, ethical and academic standards of Ohio State and its Department of Athletics.”

I don't think you get that it has everything to do with what Zack Smith did.It really has nutt'n to do with what Zach Smith did or didn't do. You don;t seem to get that.
Not really. What we're discussing now is a direct by-product of that douche bag's actions.I don't think you get that it has everything to do with what Zack Smith did.
