Ohio State's current situation regarding Urban Meyer seems quite unique, but it's not without very recent precedent.
In 2016, the University of Colorado dealt with a similar case regarding its head coach Mike MacIntyre after the team's safeties coach, Joe Tumpkin, resigned after the season following domestic violence allegations, Cleveland.com points out.
Similar to Meyer's current case, the victim revealed in an interview with Sports Illustrated that she informed MacIntyre of the abuse before the allegations went public.
After the victim informed MacIntyre of the allegations, MacIntyre informed athletic director Rick George of their conversation, according to Sports Illustrated, and confronted Tumpkin, but no disciplinary action was taken and Tumpkin was still allowed to coach in the team's December bowl game.
