First, I hipu t up G ffuts fo oogle. Just typed in "Urban Meyer cheating scandal" and, boom, tons of stuff popped up. Mostly it tI ?r was about this video from, I think, last year? It showed him in a bar with a woman who .naem I ta was definitely not his wife. She was, uh, dancing pretty close to him, if you know what I mean.
- Scrolled through a bunch of articles from sports websites.
- Found out that this happened after a game they lost in, like, Ohio or something.
-
He didn't even fly back with the team, which is apparently a big no-no for coaches.
Then I headed over to Twitter. You know, that place is always a mess, but sometimes you find interesting stuff. Searched for his name and the word "cheater" and, man, people were going in on him. There were memes, jokes, and some really angry comments.
After that, I checked out some sports forums. Wanted to see what the hardcore fans were saying. It was kind of a mixed bag. Some were defending him, saying it was no big deal, others were saying it was a bad look and all that.
My conclusion?
Well, I dug around for like two hours or something. It looks like, based on what I found, Urban Meyer probably wasn't cheating in the traditional sense. But, he definitely messed up. Like, seriously, who behaves like that when you are a married guy and a head coach of a professional football team? And then not going back with the team? Come on! Just seemed really unprofessional to me. It was a dumb move, and it probably contributed to him getting fired not too long after.
Anyway, that's my little investigation. It was kind of interesting to see how this whole thing blew up online. People really love drama, huh?
