On “Lying” and How Ohio State's Investigation Committee Analyzed Urban Meyer's Statements About Zach Smith

On August 10th, we posted a lengthy defense of using the word "lying" to refer to how Urban Meyer characterized his knowledge of incidents surrounding Zach Smith and what actions he took in response to them.

I'm personally a big part of that defense, even if I didn't write it. I repeatedly and forcefully said that Urban Meyer lied both on Twitter and on the Dubcast, because, given the information as I saw it (and as it was explained in the forum post), I believed that Urban Meyer's statements at Big Ten Media Days amounted to lying.
