Hes gone

This is basically just so OSU can get their ducks in a row before canning him right?

Why is he getting fired for this? I mean it's definitely not good if he knew, but I don't think it's worth firing him over.

I dont necessarily disagree but its 2018 so I feel like its a given

If he knew of someone's domestic abuse/violence and stayed quiet about it for years, that's no good and of course he'll be fired in todays day and age.
 
Only way I could see him wiggling out of it is if his wife says, yes I knew about it but didn't tell him. Which probably wouldn't be true.

Just a 3 game suspension eh

Harsh punishment

Todd Gurley got 4 games for a few autographs...

My wife suspended me for 3 games

 

[DJT]

He should be fired. Sounds like its still on the table.
 
He didn't even apologize or anything. He just said he wishes he wasn't in this situation.
 
I don't believe he's a bad guy, but he messed up and handled the situation wrong.

He has a long history of looking the other way on all varieties of off-field mishaps.

I think that can be said for like 80% of all NCAA head coaches of top schools. Football and basketball certainly.

3 games is kind of uninsulting, they may as well have not given out any suspension.

 

[DJT]

Sounds like the board is reviewing it and will most likely fire him. They don't want that backlash of not firing him.

 

[RipCity32]

No way they will fire him
