Just wrote a book on leadership. In interviews he has talked about the tough character standards he uses that sometimes costs him highly regarded recruits. Talked about how he would have dealt with the Jameis Winston situation much tougher than FSU. The guy can coach but he had around 40 players arrested when he was at Florida. Might want to stick to discussing man press vs. 2 deep coverage.
The scholarship is for this summer.
And he is a redshirt soph so he can go pro this year anyway. Not going to miss that schollie much this summer.
To be fair to Urban, this is the first real off-field issue he's had at OSU. And while it's a big deal, it's also a big step down from the Florida mess
Yeah touche - though they weren't murdering anyone
The underage drinking stuff is meh though - every college kid does that. It's a joke to hold athletes to a different standard

Exactly. And it's a joke to be critical of the coach when underage athletes drink and get in trouble. Those athletes may not be old enough to legally drink, but they are adults and are responsible for their own actions. The coach can't watch them twenty-four hours a day. He is only directly responsible for what they do on the practice field or in the game. The litmus test is how the coach deals with the infractions and how punishment is handed down. So in this case, Urban Meyer...wait.
"a person of interest in an alleged assault of a woman at a bar. Cornerback Bradley Roby was arrested in Bloomington, Ind., on charges of battery resulting in bodily injuries after a disturbance at a nightclub, and freshman offensive lineman Tim Gardner was arrested for obstruction of official business."
There is a bit more there than underage drinking. I'm wouldn't call assaulting women a joke sober or not.
