Urban ded - who can we poach from his staff?

This stuff going on makes me lose hope that we will ever make any sort of prominent splash in CFB. We run a good system, recruit good kids, do the best we can. In that georgia is allegedly throwing cash around like Pac Man Jones at a strip club, they won't ever get hit for anything. They aren't the only ones doing illicit or inappropriate things. This situation is more discouraging to me than anything else that is going on internally to our program.
So true. Disgusting is too mild a word. All for the sake of $$$$$ and winning.
 
How is Urban Meyer still employed?

At the time of the meeting in Fort Lauderdale, based on Stadium’s original reporting and a subsequent Ohio State-issued investigation and report, Meyer knew the following about Zach Smith on Oct. 9, 2017:

* In 2009, Smith had been arrested in Gainesville for aggravated battery of a pregnant female, his then wife Courtney Smith. The charges were eventually dropped.

* On May 8, 2014, in connection with a recruiting trip to Florida, Smith spent at least $600 at a Miami strip club with high school coaches and former Ohio State assistant/current Texas coach Tom Herman.

* Between 2014-16, Smith’s credit cards and replacement cards were declined numerous times when he was booking rental cars for recruiting trips. He also was delinquent paying for his iPhones and costs associated with bowl games.

* In October 2015, Smith was investigated by the Powell (Ohio) Police Department on two charges of domestic violence against Courtney Smith. He was not charged.

* In 2015 and 2016, Zach Smith was regularly late to practice and workouts and failed to appear at scheduled recruiting visits to high schools, despite incorrectly reporting internally that he had.

* In June 2016, based on advice from Meyer, Smith was admitted to a drug treatment facility in Mason, Ohio, for addictions a source said cost the school about $40,000.

Meyer knew all of this about Smith’s disturbing past. It would be nearly eight months before any of that became public.
