Interesting ... Helps schools like IU where depth is an issue. It will allow for freshmen to get some experience if needed and to rest starters in blow outs. I think it's a great rule!Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk Iugradman 1 Quote

ThompsonHoosier Posted August 1, 2018 Posted August 1, 2018 So it turns out (according to a report by Brett McMurphy) that Urban Meyer knew about the alleged domestic abuse by his WR Coach Zach Smith as far back as 2015, yet he completely denied knowing anything at all at last week's Big Ten media day. It does not look good for Urban...he sure does win a lot of games though! Chris007 and mamasa 1 1 Quote
Brass Cannon Posted August 1, 2018 Posted August 1, 2018 Wow lucky for Meyer he’s the football coach Quote
ThompsonHoosier Posted August 10, 2018 Posted August 10, 2018 A few disgruntled players or a bad culture?

Durkin should be next!!!! I will say though this type of behavior is very common in college football. Heck, we even had some of it here with Wilson. The only reason this is getting attention is because of the player that died - which is completely understandable. Iugradman 1 Quote
Class of '66 Old Fart Posted August 11, 2018 Posted August 11, 2018 Maryland head coach Durkin also placed on administrative leave and former IU assistant Matt Canada has been named interim head coach. Canada has been serving as Maryland's OC. WayneFleekHoosier 1 Quote

VeevlandBrowns Posted August 12, 2018 Posted August 12, 2018 A popular OSU site (11 Warriors) has an interview with Smith's mother where she (as one would expect) denies her son's guilt. More importantly, they also talked to his ex-wife's mother, who supports her former son-in-law's version of events and casts doubt on her daughter's story. Both claim that she told them multiple times she would "take Zach down and take Urban Meyer down with him." None of that is dispositive, of course. You'd expect his mother to defend him and mother and daughter could have 1000 issues between them leading to this. However, at a minimum, when the mother of an alleged victim is saying her daughter is lying...that has to give one at least a second of pause, right? My bottom line on this, and why I haven't posted a word about this whole thing until now, isn't very different than my feelings about some of the OTL stuff in regard to MSU. When you are dealing in these kinds of dynamics...sexuality, families, etc...finding "THE TRUTH" is not as simple as most want it to be. I would think if any group of people would understand this, it's the Michigan State fanbase. McMurphy's story looked awful and maybe it's ultimately mostly or even entirely correct in what it says and what it suggests (two different things, of course). However, much as in the MSU stories, in the fullness of time we start to see other voices, other perspectives and other facts begin to emerge which suggest that maybe it's not quite as cut and dried as it first appeared. My conclusion? Apply rational, reasoned skepticism with regularity and you won't go wrong. https://www.elevenwarriors.com/ohio-state-football/2018/08/95121/lynn-bruce-zach-smiths-mom-alleges-that-courtney-smith-vowed-to-take-zach-down-and-take-urban-meyer-down-with-him Quote
