There likely is no Title IX violation, as Courtney Smith wasn't a student or employee of the university.  The only real thing in question is a potential violation of Ohio States own sexual misconduct policy, and as it turns out, OSU AD Gene Smith was fully aware of the troubles between Zach and Courtney Smith, back in 2015.


Looks to me like the OSU administration is the one who dropped the ball on this one.

The thing I am having a hard time understanding is why Urbz kept him on the staff post 2015. I read he told Zach if you ever hit your wife, you're finished. So that means he knew that threat existed. Why put yourself in that position? I somewhat get him lying to the media - not something I like, but I get it... personal life things should be personal, and they specifically asked about an "arrest" (splitting hairs here). I can give him a little slack for that, though he probably should of declined to answer the question vs lying. Either way, Meyer does share some "suspicious" decision making.
