No, but that's what he can maintain. He SHOULD be fired, but I still think I'd bet on him staying versus leaving at this point. Also, what a fucking idiot. Why on earth be so definitive about not knowing? Just say, you know, I can't recall if I was ever told any specifics about what was going on in their marriage. I knew it was rocky, I knew there was a past issue and I thought they had moved past it. I believe Urban admits he knew about 2009, but said he doesn’t know about 2015. The problem is Smith has like 9 reports since 2012, and if Urban was notified about any of those reports, it will come out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 The consensus is Urban is done at OSU. The question is who will hire him, and does he really want to coach anymore? He already retired once. I guess he takes a year or two off and gets back into TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenksismyhero Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Yeah, that reads like he's specifically addressing "for cause" contract language. Carefully worded statement by his lawyers. He's obviously worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 In regards to Urban, I don’t see how he survives this. He both failed to report it and then lied about it multiple times. That doesn’t even address if he actively tried to cover things up, which I am sure they are trying to find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nitetrain8601 Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 I think he’s probably on vacation somewhere. I think Urban is done at OSU. I believe they are probably thinking of exit strategies to make both him and the university look as best as they can. Story is crazy though how he’s not the one who has domestic violence against him, he seemingly tried to help a guy he considers a friend, gets burned by the guy and eventually makes the tough decision to fire him and he’s still gonna get burned at the stake. I know Urban is a scumbag, but I didn’t think this was near his worst offense. Flip side is this - when did the AD know that Urban knew? Probably around the same time they both decided to fire him.

No reason Urban had that guy on his staff so long. It’s not like he was a coordinator. If OSU was 7-6 last year Urban would have zero chance. I don’t see where winning game should make a difference here. I am pretty sure the next guy they hire is going to win a lot of games too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenksismyhero Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 (edited) Such a load of shit. Money wins out over morality, everytime. Don't understand why schools aren't just honest about it.
