Ohio State announced a special working group Thursday night that will direct the investigation into football coach Urban Meyer.
The independent group, formed by the Ohio State Board of Trustees, includes former Ohio House Speaker Jo Ann Davidson, former acting U.S. Deputy Attorney General Craig Morford and former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Ohio Carter Stewart, as well as trustees Alex Fischer, Janet Porter and Alex Shumate.
The group also will "be available to provide consultation and advice and assist with communication to the full board on the matter," the university said in a statement.
