Tom Herman (Former Head Coach FAU Owls)

Herman has to try and put up a fence in Texas. Everyone is recruiting players in Texas that could help Texas be a power again. And now he has to outrecruit Jimbo Fisher. He might be over his head. Who knows?

I’m not going to say Tom Herman was the tipster, but Brett McMurphy went from Big 12 Media Days in Frisco Texas on July 16 and 17 2018, straight to the Gainesville Police Department with enough time to have a specific records request fulfilled for an incident report, then straight to Chicago where he shared his Facebook post about Zach Smith’s 2009 arrest in Gainesville at 8:05am on July 23 2018, the day before Urban Meyer was scheduled to speak and answer questions.

What’s weird is he just seems like the kinda guy to me where I’m like “yeah, I can see him doing that”

I mean think about it. Could you imagine that with LJsr, Fick, Coombs, Schiano, Drayton, Ash, etc? Me either.

So not being able to keep in state kids was enough to get him to speak up about allegations from 2015.

What does that make Tom then? Still cant get over offering financial assistance in 2017 when she should have been fairly comfortable.

Derrick Foreman ain't wrong. It's what make this entire shit show almost impossible to believe.

If Zach Smith is a serial wife abuser, and if Urban Meyer knew he was, and if it was such a poorly kept secret that members of BP and some members of the Ohio State beat have suspected it, then that implies virtually every single member of OSUs staff knew it, as well as many at Maryland, Marshall, Boston College, Florida, Houston, and Texas.

So Urban wasn't the only one alleged to do nothing, it was hundreds upon hundreds of coaches and coaches wives. And the hardest part to believe in all of that is that if it were true, I can't really imagine a scenario where Kerry Coombs wouldn't have ripped Smith's limbs off and clubbed him with them.

I’d like to add that while Brett McMurphy took it national, 11W has screenshots from Texas Longhorns’ boards and Twitter discussing it, with the incident report, on 7/20/18. It looks like they caught it from and interacted with the now defunct twitter account “@RomTinaldi”. This account mass tweeted the Ohio State beat, Dispatch, OSU, and Deadspin. How it got to Texas first is beyond me.

Google cached data shows the twitter account was started in April 2018 for “R. Tharpe” with the location “Bexley, OH”.
