I'm listening to the radio this morning. It's BS. Like Urban Meyer is the reason this woman was supposedly beat up by her husband.
Like you said, wives, close friends and family are not losing their jobs, Urban Meyer supposedly allowed this domestic violence to happen. It's ridiculous.
My opinion here, this is the Me Too movement. Fight the patriarchy, and even better if you can blame a white male at the top. Don't blame this woman's close family and friends that would actually know the truth and details for not reporting this to authorities.
If she was beat, it's her job to go to the cops. And it's her friends job to make her do it. Putting this on Urban Meyer is stupid.
As ridiculous as that movement is, Title IX has been around since before that movement even started. The issue itself is Title IX here. But, while it's in place, Meyer had a duty to report it. He'll take the fall for this because A) he's a public figurehead and the university will need a head to roll to quell the constantly offended and B) because he set himself up for failure by not reporting it in the first place. I agree that he shouldn't be the one to take the fall for this after reading the text message exchange between Smith and her friends. But he certainly didn't do himself any favors. IF he is fired, I'd expect there to be a lot of interest in him.
