    Report: Former Ohio State assistant Zach Smith sent lewd photo from White House

    Fired Ohio State assistant football coach Zach Smith sent a picture of his penis from a White House bathroom, according to a published report Friday night.
    Stadium reported that Smith, citing photos it had obtained, sent a photo from April 20, 2015 - the same date of Ohio State’s White House visit after winning the 2014 national title - where his penis could be seen alongside a towel that featured the seal of the President of the United States.

    Courtney Smith, the ex-wife of Zach Smith, also told Stadium that he “took multiple photos of his penis inside the Ohio State coaches’ offices” and he “photographed himself in the coaches’ offices receiving oral sex and having sex with a OSU staffer."
    Messages left with Smith’s attorney, Brad Koffel, by USA TODAY Sports on Friday were not immediately returned. When reached by Stadium, Koffel, said he had “no idea” about the photos. Koffel also accused Stadium reporter Brett McMurphy of "receiving stolen property."
    Smith was fired by Ohio State last month after allegations that he abused his then-wife in 2015 were made public in Courtney Smith’s protection order application. Courtney Smith said that Zach Smith had abused her on multiple occasions and the school had knowledge of the 2015 incident, which did not result in criminal charges against Zach Smith.
    Zach Smith has denied ever abusing Courtney Smith. The two divorced in 2016 and share custody of their two children.
    Head coach Urban Meyer was put on paid leave as the school launched an independent investigation into his handling of the domestic abuse allegations. Ohio State announced Friday that the investigation will be concluded on Sunday and findings will be passed to the school’s board of trustees next week.

    It is time to boot OSU,PSU and MSU from BIG10. They all are dumpster fire when it comes to moral compass

  5. The police were called in and investigated her latest claim and declined to press charges. That doesn't mean nothing happened of course, but it does mean that Meyer had some basis to do nothing. I do have some trouble with the idea that as a boss, it is your responsibility to police your employees' private activities. It's one thing if the job is being misused in pursuit of something improper or illegal, as apparently was the case in the Penn State situation. But firing someone on the basis of unsubstantiated allegations from an embittered ex-spouse seems rife with potential for abuse and unfairness. You'd think after the Duke lacrosse and UVA Rolling Stone fake story that universities would be a bit more prudent.

    COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Ohio State on Wednesday night suspended head football coach Urban Meyer for the first three games of this season after a two-week investigation found that he mishandled domestic assault allegations made against former Buckeyes assistant coach Zach Smith and misrepresented what he knew about the situation in a public statement in July.

    Meyer was suspended without pay and banned from interacting with the football team through Sept. 2. He can rejoin the team at that point, but he will not be able to coach in games against Oregon State, Rutgers and No. 16 TCU.

  7. Suspended 3 games, that’s it?
    What a disgrace.
    Just more proof that winning is everything in college sports

    Harbaugh is number 3 @ $7MM!?
    What a joke.

    He went 10-3 in 2015, 10-3 in 2016, 8-5 in 2017.
    0-3 against OSU, 1-2 against Michigan State, and is 1-3 in Bowl games.

    At least Saban, Sweeney, and Meyer win.

    Hmmmmm.

    For that kind of money... and going into year 4 of his program... its probably a decent bet he makes it to the playoffs this year. As the 2018 season opens... just bet the Blue in all the big games with a tight spread. Including OSU.

    Game 1 is (at) Notre Dame with U of M (-1) on 9/1
    ****Bet the farm on Harbaugh. Easy money this game.
