The Urban Meyer rally
- Thread starter Delco Lion
- Start date
Impressive. Tens of people in attendance.
Is Tennessee Jeff the same guy that spray painted the rock in Knoxville to vilify Schiano?
Honestly, tosu fans get a free pass with whatever they do. Rewind to 2011-12 and the media would be burning us at the stake for demonstrations like that.
Ive Always heard the state of Ohio had a bad drug problem, butI didn’t realize it was that bad.
Well, the turn out for that rally looked rather pathetic. And talk about tone deaf. How do you think their fans explain: Tatoo Gate, the car buying/loan scandal, Ezekiel Elliot beating his GF, the doctor sexually assaulting male athletes, male athletes being ogled while they showered, and now keeping a coach on the staff that Meyer (and others) knew beat his wife because...he is Earle Bruce’s grandson??? If that’s not a loss of institutional control, NOTHING IS.
UNC says, “Hold my beer”
In 2011, we rallied in support of the victims. In 2018, OSU fans call the victim a drunk and a liar.
I think they got those women from the State Fair. They were the losers from the cattle show!!!
Zeke Elliott’s dad was at the rally...

Elliott said Meyer took his son when he was a young man and provided the "principles, morals, the standards to him becoming a man.”
Well, that explains a lot about his son’s suspension I guess.

Yeesh. Not a whole lot of self-awareness on Mr. Elliott's part.
Any major dude with half a heart surely will tell you that this rally was a dumpster fire.
I thought it was proven in court that the gf admitted she lied about being assaulted. But the NFL suspended him anyway?
Yeah, Urban taught Zeke well. And Stacy Elliott, with a son who is a domestic abuser, works for Ohio State as a recruiting liason.
In attendance at Monday's rally was Stacy Elliott, father of former Ohio State running back Ezekiel Elliott. Stacy Elliott showed up wearing a replica of his son's Buckeye jersey. Elliott said he showed up because he loves Meyer and because he teaches respect for women.
Elliott's son, now a running back for the Dallas Cowboys, was suspended without pay for the first six games of the 2017 NFL season after the league investigated allegations from Elliott's ex-girlfriend that he was involved in "multiple instances of physical violence" against her.
Also "bat crazy"...
....our society today seems quit a bit unstable. Not being sarcastic, it's an undeniable truth.

I saw more than one comment from smug, asshole, condescending buckeyes saying that this rally is too "Penn State" for them. 'Creepy and Culty'.
Buckeyes, all of you, eat shit and die. You're all scum. Everyone knows ohio state will do anything, ANYTHING, to keep winning.
"A gauntlet of sexual deviancy"

Crap. I looked really hard to see if there might be someone actually wearing a wife beater shirt, but no such luck.
Probably the OSU wrestling room!
Well we have JZ and Framing Paterno site but that party has died down. We were deemed a culture problem for holding a candle vigil for Paterno's death all because Joe disliked the media and kept clean for so many years.
Urban is a worm, always has been and always will be. Seems schools or a coach with multiple allegations over the years, always gets a free pass while squeaky clean Joe gets the tar and feathers.

Are there any ESPN reporters there and in the studio that are practically begging for a riot?
I mean that guy with the red sign looks pretty suspicious to me.
What happens in the Wresting program and in the Diving Program at OSU is not the subject.
Favorite signs from the rally:
"Finebaum's Words are Weaker than Alabama's Football Schedule"
As though Bama never beats any good teams.
"ESPN SEC FRAUDS"
Lol. Wtf?

Outside firm will head Urban Meyer probe at Ohio State; it's expected to take 2 weeks

Ohio State head coach Urban
By The Associated Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Ohio State will rely on an outside law firm to investigate what coach Urban Meyer knew and did about domestic abuse accusations against a former assistant, a process expected to be completed within two weeks, the university said Sunday night.
Ohio State said in a release that a trustees' committee formed to coordinate the investigation had an initial meeting and has hired a firm to conduct the probe of Meyer, who says he followed proper protocol when informed of a 2015 abuse allegation against assistant Zach Smith.
Mary Jo White of the national firm Debevoise & Plimpton is leading the investigation, the university said. She's a former federal prosecutor and a former chairwoman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange.
"Ohio State is committed to a thorough and complete investigation," said Jo Ann Davidson, a former Ohio House Speaker who is chairwoman of the trustees' group coordinating the effort. "We look forward to sharing the results of this investigation and any action the university may take."
An decisions resulting from the investigation will be made by Ohio State President Michael Drake in consultation with university trustees, the statement said.
Meyer was put on paid leave last week amidquestions about what he knew and did about accusations of abuse made against Smith, who was fired July 24 after his ex-wife sought a restraining order against him. The couple divorced in 2016.
Smith has never been criminally charged or convicted.
Meyer initially told reporters at Big Ten Media Days on July 25 that he didn't know anything about abuse allegations made by Courtney Smith in October 2015. In a statement released Friday via Twitter , Meyer admitted that he knew about the 2015 incidents and insisted he followed proper protocol. He also admitted lying to reporters about it.
What Meyer knew and when he knew it became a question after college football writer Brett McMurphy reported that Courtney Smith had told Meyer's wife Shelley about the 2015 incidents and shared pictures of injuriesthrough text messages that she shared with McMurphy.
Smit denied assaulting his wife and said any physical injuries she might have suffered were the result of him defending himself. He said he discussed the 2015 allegations at the time with Meyer and athletic director Gene Smith.
Ohio State's policy on sexual misconduct says anyone who supervises faculty, staff, students or volunteers has a duty to report "when they receive a disclosure of sexual misconduct or become aware of information that would lead a reasonable person to believe that sexual misconduct may have occurred involving anyone covered under this policy."
A clause in Meyer's new contract, which raised his salary to $7.6 million this year and runs through 2022, also requires him to "report to Ohio State's Title IX athletics any known violations" of the sexual misconduct policy involving students, faculty or staff at the risk of being fired with cause.
Ohio State opened preseason practice on Friday and starts the season Sept. 1 against Oregon State. Co-offensive coordinator Ryan Day is the acting head coach.
