  • The great irony of this thread is that Smith turned a position at Texas down when offered to him by Herman who was well aware of his relationship issues. The same Herman who hired Casey Horny.

  • There is no way any of this will affect Tom Herman. However, he will still be fired this year for a losing record.

    If he's they guy who's been droppin' dimes to McMurphy, it's a scumbag move, not befitting the HC of an elite university like Texas.  But hardly illegal, or anything like that.  Not sure why you guys

Right now every SEC team has an assistant madly searching for arrest records of any human who ever worked for Saban. 

 

yea and Alabama has hit men searching for those same people (and their close friends and family) with arrest records

my guess is that urban's wife is going to claim his wife  she never told him about the incidents

FIFY

My wife never told me one of my coaches was beating his wife. 

Right.............

Posted it elsewhere but this is what Courtney Smith actually said in the 20 minute interview that is relevant to Herman and Beck
- Until 2015, the wives and coaches knew about the toxic relationship and marital issues, but most (if any) didn't know about the actual abuse. It wasn't something she wanted to tell people about.
- She came forward about the physical abuse to Shelley Meyer in 2015 after the divorce (and maybe some other unnamed wives as well)
It seems to me like Herman is safe. Beck may not be. 

The good news though is I actually trust CDC to be on top of this. Hopefully he's ahead of it like he was with Boyd. 

This was also my understanding of her comments thus far. Important to keep in mind for those who are trying to drag Herman into this.

The only way they fire her and not him is if he continues to deny knowing. Ie, throws her under the bus. And she may suggest he do it.

He can deny knowing, but the text between Ms. Smith and Director of Football Ops indicates he (Urban) knew.

wasn't Urban talking about lying to the NCAA? here didn't Urban just lie to the media? nobody is obliged to not lie to the media.

This piece of shit had been beating her since 2009. The 2015 incident he was arrested, and the report stated that there were signs of habitual physical abuse. Herman and Beck should worry about Texas.

Herman was there for 2 years

it would seem the 5* receiver from Austin that had UT as 8% would be the only recruit there is currently a serious chance at

it would be nice to grab a couple of those lineman, but other than that not sure who Texas really needs that tOSU currently has committed

Go fuck yourself you ignorant cunt magnet. I've bled more for this university in an afternoon than you have in your entire shit sandwich eating existence. The dude beat her for years according to reports. This happened habitually between 2009 and his arrest in 2015. It is possible that Tom's wife knew. And if you don't see that, and see that it scares me-- then I can't help your and your fucktardedness.

the -ex admits she didn't tell anyone about the PHYSICAL abuse until 2015.  thermensa was hired by UH on 15 december 2014.

First, who does OSU hire?

Baggins still hasn't signed his contract yet, has he? That's the only thing that would make this story any better.

This seems particularly relevant to our situation.  

Also just because two women have husbands that work together doesn't mean they are close.  Hell my wife doesn't know many of the people I've worked with for 20 years, much less their wives.

Even if they were socially friendly, other coaches wives are probably the last people she'd tell because it would increase the chance of this getting to administration which would end up in her husband (who she was at that time trying to protect) getting shit canned.

Wow!

This is Harbaugh's year.

Khaki pants will still find a way to lose that game.

Ive been working all day and just got the news. 

 

Just wanted to stop by and offer Urban a stern shaking of the head and hardy “tisk, tisk, tisk”

 

Of course the offseason gets good right at the end. 

Brett McMurphy is an OSU grad.  The Pokes variety OSU that is.

 

Edited by Grippe

So us having to fire Herman, hire Mack Brown as interim HC due to the proximity of the season starting, has been largely put to rest now ?

Im ready for Maryland.

Wasn't it about this same time last year that the Ole Miss stuff broke?

 

Heart attack that was actually heartburn, brain tumor that was actually chronic headaches, I wonder what health condition Urban will make up next to get out of this mess....

Not sure how this became a thread about Herman's wife, but fuck this wifebeater and anyone else who enabled him.

I don't think he get's out of this one, but he definitely helped The Little Sisters of the Poor today....

I love seeing people in a position of power who have tried to flex moral high ground muscle in the past laid low

His level of hypocrisy is unbelievable.  He is a complete narcissist.

If it comes out that she resigned then we know the "I never told Urban" defense is coming.

I am already a cynical MF’er who assumes everyone lies, cheats and steals already in college football. But this one really surprises me. 
I get lying to cover up an academic scandal or payments to players. I get covering up crimes to protect players who help you win. But why in Sam hell would you risk it all for a position coach? If he were a cold, calcliated asshole who cares about money and winning at all costs why not toss this guy to the curb the moment this happens?  It’s not like a WR coach is the brains of the operation. With all due respect to WR coaches, they are not exactly irreplaceable. 
Really baffled by this one, to be honest. 
I have no idea if this matters or not and I didn't know this until an hour ago, but this Zach Smith character is Earl Bruce's grandson. Does that come into play?

Yes. Meyer's mentor.

It matters very much. The ONLY reason he kept him EVER, has to be because of Urby's love for Earl.

No, but he was capable of reporting it.

With all the claims of police reports changed or incomplete, it sounds like 'Dr. Tom' Osborne was a mentor.

I just tuned in to say:

Hahah fuck you urban Meyer you fucking fuck!
