Ohio State sets 2-week deadline in Meyer investigation: report

Ohio State released a statement Sunday night that said its investigation of whether Buckeyes' coach Urban Meyer had knowledge of former assistant Zach Smith's history of alleged domestic violence will be concluded in 14 days.

Last week, the university's Board of Trustees formed an independent working group which appointed a chairman and engaged an investigative firm.

Former Ohio House Speaker Jo Ann Davidson is chair of the working group. It includes former acting U.S. Deputy Attorney General Craig Morford, former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Ohio Carter Stewart and current university trustees Alex Fischer, Janet Porter and Alex Shumate.
