This is the story that doesn't end, it keeps going on and on my friends.
Some people started reporting on it not knowing what it was,
And everyone keeps on saying stuff forever just because,
This is the story that doesn't end....

Zach sure seems to care a lot about his kids to blast a photo of them and throw them even more in the middle of this.

Before the focus was on Zach and Courtney. Now he wants to make it about the kids.

It's going to be interesting to see him continue to try and cover his own ass while simultaneously trying to tell everyone that Urban is also a choir boy.

At some point, he's going to have to pick protecting his own narrative over protecting Urban. It could get ugly at that point, depending on what dirt from the official reports still hasn't come out.

Still waiting on the coed from Florida story to come out. I’m sure he paid everyone off by now but it’ll leak eventually.

Not sure how to stop the media from pouring gas on the fire?????

Hmmm what could Zach do that would somehow solve this problem? I got it, he could drop twitter bombs all afternoon attacking the media in general, Brett McMurphy, Finebaum, ESPN, President Drake, Courtney Smith, Brenda Tracy.

Problem Solved.

So Zach was day drinking with his mom? And, this is the shit they came up with?

Family sounds like a bunch of lunatics.

Zach and his mom victim blaming. I'd love to be a fly on the wall at Thanksgiving.

If it weren't for the seriousness of the allegations, I would be enjoying this shi* show much more.

Somehow I am beginning to believe Urban isn't going to make it through all this.

I think all of you are missing a key question here: what can we, as people who think Urbie is a wretched, hypocritical scumbag employed by a wretched, hypocritical school that caters to a wretched, hypocritical fanbase, do to keep this whole shitshow going until they fire Urbie, implode as a football program, and break their fans' hearts. That's what we should all be focused on. This may be more fun than the upcoming season!

True, but I would think after the last few days, even OSU admins have to be thinking something has to give.

I re-watched the last few minutes of the interview the wife gave, and at the end she does say that no one from Ohio State called to ask her side of the story or see how she was doing, so OSU fans are using this to, once again, make her sound unreliable. I can see a bit of truth to that.

But checking on someone's well being != convincing them not to press charges. I'd wager she was alluding to OSU's lack of sympathy for the situation relative to ACTUAL human contact.

On one hand, I’m disgusted by this whole situation. On the other, I’m pretty stoked to see all of this shit unfold. I especially enjoy the tweets by Smith and his mommy coming to bat for him.

I agree...it's like the train-wreck that you can't take your eyes off of. But its kind of like Herpes as well...the gift that keeps giving. Things seem to settle down as though it's going away and them BOOM it festers again!

P.S. : Not speaking from experience :).

OSU board of trustee re-signs in protest over the slap on the wrist they gave Meyer.

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/30/...-urban-meyer.html?smtyp=cur&smid=tw-nytsports

An Ohio State trustee has resigned, saying the punishment of the football coach Urban Meyer, a three-game suspension, should have been “more profound” after a report concluded he had mishandled domestic violence accusations against an assistant coach and had tolerated the assistant’s misbehavior for years.

The trustee, Jeffrey Wadsworth, said in an interview on Thursday that he had stepped down from the board shortly after the university announced Mr. Meyer’s punishment last week.

“I didn’t feel that I’d seen high-integrity behavior,” Mr. Wadsworth said of Mr. Meyer.


Wow. Not a good look for the President, other board members and OSU in general. At all. Don't think Urby is completely out of the woods yet.

Yeah, that’s pretty wild. Good for that guy.
