In by better moments, I don't wish ill on anyone. But I'm no fan of Urban Meyer (going back to his days at Florida), so this provides a bit of schadenfreude. I think he's an opportunist, politician, liar, and egoist. Though I know that's true for lots of HCs, I've often thought that he, especially, was successful at the expense of his integrity.
At any rate, THE Ohio State University will survive, I think. They are presently even more ensconced as an elite football power than Penn State, where the scandal was much worse, and PSU football is recovering well. I don't know what will happen with Meyer, but if stuff keeps coming out, I'll bet he gets fired, and will resurface in a couple of years. But if they find a way to corral this stuff to a limited number of issues, perhaps he just gets a suspension or something? I dunno. We'll see.
