So Meyer has significant memory loss
What the H does that mean? How can he be the head coach of a major college football team?! Or any football team for that matter?! What parent would want their child playing for a coach who might not know who he is next week? OSU & the NCAA have failed miserably. Could you imagine if this had happened to the head coach at Georgia? The previous coach would have been crucified. The current coach would have been banned from coaching for life.

the old " i forgot my homework" ....... crazy.....like a fox!....highest paid state employee in ohio still has a few tricks up his sleeve....somebody shoulda told butch he coulda said " he forgot to recruit" and he may still be leading big orange to national championships of life.....this paves the way for urban to be a politician....the student is now a master.
Only when it come to ethics.
Does he really ? I do not recall that.
Wish I had memory loss for all of these OSU/Urban threads.
You sir have won the “commebtbof the day” for me. Ole Butch missed his chance for sure!
Just saw the aforementioned Jones sitting in a meeting room last night in the ESPN 4 part series on AL football. I guess the Tide are also interested in becoming champions of life. Who better to consult than BJ?
Sounds like some guy named Bill (I think?) way back from the 1990s. But my memory might be a little hazy here again also. Whatever. It is what it is.
Its according to "what the definition of is- is" . Who else could get away with that but willy
@RPMdawg no doubt sir.
At this point, it's very hard to understand how people can defend Meyer or the university for defending him. The pyramid of lies and excuses is so overwhelming...the excuses are so blatantly flimsy and false....that those that still claim that they don't understand what he did wrong are being intellectually dishonest themselves.
@MinnesotaDawg sad, but true.
This “verdict” surely surprises no one on this forum. When the committee was named several posters pointed out that it would clearly be a whitewash. Prescient I would say.
Everyone blames it on something when caught in a lie!
Almost every question, Meyer asked for it to be repeated. That is no random occurrence. He was coached to use that technique. Gives him time to think, makes the question seem more mundane, takes the edge off the listener (bored hearing the question twice). He is a slick one. Not a multi-millionaire for nothing/without being crafty. So, bad memory AND bad hearing. He's bucking for disability, I tell ya.
True. Personally, I am not surprised about the outcome. I've been posting my opinion since Day 1 of the scandal that I thought he would get suspended for a few games at most...
My surprise came from reading the investigation report itself....which I expected to be a story crafted to protect Meyer. It certainly does try to put a "best light" spin on the factual findings, but the lenient conclusions of the report make little sense when read in conjunction with the rest of the findings. It's as if the conclusions were written at a different time, by a different person.
The whole report is littered with misstatement here, lie there, failure to report here, failure to inform there, cover-up here, convenient misstatement here, convenient forgetfulness there, probably destruction of evidence here, don't believe him there, seems like another lie here.....culminating in the ridiculous conclusion that "good faith" mistakes were made and Meyer didn't "intentionally lie." Makes me wonder whether yesterday's 12 hour debate involved significant edits to the report and whether or not to release it at all.
Another bad faith move by OSU was the failure to release the report until AFTER the press conference, so that reporters in attendance couldn't ask Meyer, Smith, or the President about the disturbing conduct detailed in the report.
