I actually agree with a lot of what Buckeye is saying here. If the ONLY issue at hand with Urban was that there was a suspicion (or even more) of spousal abuse by Smith then this all is a lot more complicated. It would be purely a moral issue and I'm not sure what OSU would really need to do.
The problem is that is just one of a looooong list of issues with Zach Smith. Urban Meyer looked the other way time and time again with this guy. Meyer lied countless times to his employer about things involving Smith. He's been proven to have lied several times since the investigation started. We can debate all day about the text messages and what should've happened there but there are so many instances of Meyer screwing up to cover his own ass and his good buddy Zach that it's impossible to excuse or refute them all.
I agree with this.
This issue then becomes, if he's cleared of legal wrong doings, becomes a moral issue. tOSU is showing the world where their compass is faulty.
In CUM's job, he is a coach, leader of young men, mentor, whatever title you want to give him. He is commissioned to provide direction and leadership to a group of kids parents entrusted him to take care of. If he knowingly kept a wife beater on staff and in the presence of his players to lead them, which he clearly did, he's gotta go.
The difference between Buckeye and Baylor fans is, Buckeye isn't avoiding the issue of Meyer being a scumbag, he's arguing specific points of Title IX(right or wrong I'm not sure) and how it pertains to being fired under those guidelines.
Baylor fans, with everything we now know, will still look you in the eyes and tell you Briles is a great and honorable man who did nothing wrong, and was a scapegoat.
