Quote
"I have been a Division I football coach for the last 25 years and, during that time, my primary focus has been making a difference in the lives of the young men I have been so fortunate to have coached and building championship programs," Meyer said in a statement. "At this time in my life, however, I fully grasp the sacrifices my 24/7 profession has demanded of me, and I know it is time to put my focus on my family and life away from the field.

"The decision to step down was a difficult one. But, after spending more than two decades motivating and celebrating the young men I've been so proud to coach, I relish the opportunity to cheer for my three terrific kids as they compete in their own respective sports. I know how fortunate I am to be in a position to make this choice and to have a family that is as loving and supportive as my amazing wife and children have always been. My family has shared both the commitment and the sacrifice required to coach at this level for so long and I would not have enjoyed the success I have had without their support."

Great slowplay by Meyer over the last 10 years(ish), IMO.  Gig at a MAC school, coach up a non-AQ contender, learn the ropes of being a HC at a BCS school, then get the keys to the kingdom from a Legend.  Will surely retire as LHCUM

I just find it impossible they don't find something. The victim told his wife and he claims he hadn't heard about this previously. I don't know how your marriages work, but we tell each other everything. Especially if I was making millions of dollars a year and my job might be in jeopardy for it.

No way he gets the ax. Maybe suspended for a few games? They open with Oregon State, Rutgers then the neutral site game vs. TCU. Can't imagine him not being on the sidelines for that last one.

I tend to be in line of this thinking. If anything, I can't imagine sitting on that info and not telling anyone regardless if they were my spouse, but even more if they were.

He may get suspended a game or two but that is the most that will happen.  If they did find reason to fire him and want to fire him, some SEC school would send a dump truck of money to his house immediately.

Urban, listen. It’s your old bud SB here. I know sometimes after a big mistake, your whole life might come tumbling down. It might feel like the weight of the world is on your shoulders. Hell, you might even be beating yourself up about what you should’ve done years ago, and that’d be completely natural. But trust me when I say this: it will get better for you IF you correct course and come to a place that can help you straighten up and fly right. Of course I am talking about the Heartland of America. Your career is down but it doesn’t HAVE to be over. Look yourself in the mirror for a good, long time, and make the decision that will help you resurrect your career. We did it for Bryce Brown, and we’ll do it for you.

Kansas State University. We have NBAF. And a Sudler (brought to us by an alum of tOSU!).

I didn’t read a ton on it but maybe suggesting marriage counseling for domestic abuse wasn’t the 100% best route.
