OSU Trustee Jeffrey Wadsworth Resigns; Wanted Harsher Urban Meyer Punishment

An Ohio State trustee has resigned his position because the university imposed what he felt was a minimal punishment against head football coach Urban Meyer.

"I didn't feel that I'd seen high-integrity behavior," Jeffrey Wadsworth said Thursday after stepping down from the board, according to Marc Tracy of the New York Times.

Meyer was suspended three games for his handling of domestic abuse allegations against former receivers coach Zach Smith.
