last gasp of a drowning man. that wasn't created as a mea culpa to the public, it was to the alumni. he's trying to leverage the boosters.

the biggest takeaway from this entire thing is to never, ever question brett mcmurphy's journalistic integrity to the press.

that was another coach's wife, but the point still stands.

sportscenter (it's actually somewhat watchable again after ditching the sc6 dumpster fire) was pretty tough on him last night. they had adelson's article as a segment and it did not make him look redeemable.

wish i could take credit for the find, but i saw it in a bucknuts thread when i was looking for some delicious buckeye tears. they're currently in the anger/denial phase as a whole, but there are apparently a handful of reasonable fans there.

"911 actually stopped sending squads because they stopped finding her credible." immediate bull**** flag. police don't just stop dispatching officers because they determine someone isn't credible. they might not send them as fast and the cops might be ****ed, but that immediately disproves that...

he's been throwing shade at espn so i don't think he cares about burning bridges. mcmurphy is a smart guy so i doubt that he didn't take challenging it into consideration either, but i don't think it's in anyone's best interest to try to out-lawyer disney unless they have a smoking gun, a body...

espn is currently paying him severance. he talked about it on a podcast. it actually makes him talking with svp even funnier because they're paying a guy that they laid off to talk about a story that could have been theirs.

apparently she was very cautious to share the story in the first place and mcmurphy was very persistent. he also made it clear to her that he would not publish anything with a mysterious "unnamed source" that can lead to plausible deniability. he wanted an airtight report and it certainly looks...

there is no chain of command to follow with title ix violations for mandatory reporters. mandatory reports are required to report directly to the university title ix office in a timely manner (aka immediately). the reason i can say this definitively is because i've been a mandatory reporter at 3...

failure to report is explicitly stated as grounds for termination in his contract. you're right in that they don't have to do it if they don't want to, but when the **** storm is coming and you have an out, you take the out. ohio state is bigger than urban meyer. the fallout of keeping him far...

mcmurphy probably has a non-compete with espn as part of his layoff. he's too good of a reporter to be freelance.

the same world where a guy loses his job for violating the terms of his employment contract. moral issues aside, if urban even heard a whisper of the 2015 incident and failed to report it, he directly broke his contract. title ix and clery act are drilled into the head of every university...

you can just come out and say that you're here to be a ****head on the board instead of pretending to be completely obtuse.

earle bruce's grandson. urban coached for bruce, then smith played and coached for urban.

agreed 100%. there's maybe a fraction of a percent of a chance that he somehow didn't know what was happening despite apparently everyone else and their mother knowing.

by "got in a fight" do you mean "he kicked the **** out of her?" i dunno, maybe because she doesn't like getting slapped by her husband and talking to the guy he looks up to would possibly help alleviate that. just a thought.

why wouldn't they? this isn't the 90s or even early 2000s where you can sweep domestic violence under the rug, especially when it involves someone that is a serial abuser. even if meyer is totally innocent, ohio state is tainted for having him unless courtney smith comes out and says she...

shelly actually never confirmed that she told him, only that she would tell him. the texts about urban knowing and wondering what to do were with another staffer's wife. that all being said, unless every single coach at osu and their wives are morally bankrupt enough to never approach meyer...

if urban even heard a rumor of smith beating his wife he was contractually obligated to report it to the title ix office per the terms of his extension. ohio state can fire him with cause. whether they will do that or settle with him to prevent other dirt from coming out is another story.
