Look at what happened at tOSU at the start of the season. There was a huge scandal involving Urban Meyer turning the other cheek to documented violence against women by one of his coaches. Many believe tOSU handled that situation inappropriately and were too lenient with Meyer and that tOSU and Meyer were actually smug about the whole thing.

All Martell needs to do is hire an attorney and apply for a waiver on the grounds that he has strong moral objections to violence against women and anyone who supports violence against women or is soft on violence against women. As such, he cannot in good conscience continue to be a student at an institution that placed winning football games above doing the right thing. An institution that continues to employ a former coach who at best turned the other cheek, and at worst helped to cover it up. An institution that is allowing that former coach to teach a class on character and discipline.

Tell me the NCAA is going to deny a waiver built on those grounds and face the public backlash that would come with that.

If he had such a strong objection he would've transferred before the season. We all know what time it is on Martell. Fields in, Martell gets out. He better try a different route.

Wrong. Easy to explain that the timing of everything, and the uncertainty, made it too difficult to transfer before the season.

I just checked OU's depth chart. Kendall has entered the portal, leaving a RS-Frosh and Rattler coming in the summer. It actually fits better for Hurts there than Miami. Enos would be the wild card, but Riley even has that trumped right now.

People are a bit delusional on this issue.

It may not be that "Fields in" is the reason. Ohio Taint just changed coaches, so maybe it's the reality that his new coach does not feel that he fits the style, so much so that one of the first acts of the new coach is to bring in a transfer QB.

Thus, a very likely situation where Tate realizes he will sit for 3 years, because the coach is going in a different direction.

Fields didn’t leave immediately when the racial epithets were hurled at him. But all signs point to him being able to use that as a waiver.

If Fields can wait then so can Model Martell. They’re both hardcore hot button issues too—racism and domestic abuse—that the ncaa would be well advised to avoid.

Martell on Tuesday was correct? Hurts hasn’t announced. Nobody knew wtf was going on with Thomas but initially he was right
