A new report from Brett McMurphy has unearthed serious concerns with Ohio State head football coach Urban Meyer’s handling of domestic abuse allegations against former wide receivers coach Zach Smith.
Meyer fired Smith last week after reports of multiple arrests and protective orders were made public, dating back to 2009 when Smith was on Meyer’s staff at the University of Florida. The day following the termination, Meyer said at Big Ten Media Days that he had been aware of the situation that occurred in 2009, but was not aware of any other instances of alleged abuse, including ones reported to have happened in 2015 and May of this year.
