Last night, exactly three weeks after Brett McMurphy’s initial bombshell story broke, Urban Meyer was suspended three games by Ohio State for his failure to properly handle the domestic abuse allegations of his former assistant coach, Zach Smith. The suspension came after a lengthy internal investigation from the university, as well as an 11-hour long Board of Trustees meeting yesterday.
And yet, the suspension rings hollow. Based on the haphazard press conference, as well as the contradictory report released afterwards, it’s hard to tell if Meyer, the university, or the OSU fanbase has really learned anything.
