From what I remember reading, a deFries (sp?) was the main one to put pressure on her. I don't think he was a University employee. Was also thinking maybe Bruce and Meyers wife spoke to her, will Earle passed away and Meyers wife has spousal immunity so those would be hard to check if Urban directed them to do it.
Which is why they would lose their mind if they hired "little old Matt Campbell" instead of some monster name
They'd be a little less forgiving knowing he's an Ohio boy with Ohio roots....but your point is well taken.....I'm sure many think Saban should crawl over broken glass to be the Defensive Coordinator
I don't know the rules, but if she is an RN couldn't she say she couldn't tell because of patient confidentiality. Are we sure she didn't report it to the police?
Varies by state in ohio most aren't unless you are licensed by the state board of education.

No, HIPAA would not come into play at all. HIPAA is only a factor for "covered entities." Covered entities are pretty clearly defined by the law. Put it this way. If you're friends with a doctor, and you send him/her a picture of an injury in a non clinical capacity: "Check out this poison ivy rash!" and the doctor decides to share it with his/her spouse, there's no HIPAA violation. You're not a patient and they're not a provider in that scenario. But, let's say you sought treatment for the rash at the doctor's office, and then later texted them a picture of the rash, saying "I think it's getting better" HIPAA would be more likely to come into play, if they shared it.
simply put, HIPAA is not a reason why Urban's wife wouldn't tell him, or anyone else in authority, about this. It's just not. She's a nursing instructor, so I'm sure she's familiar with HIPAA, as well as Mandatory Reporter laws. She would not be penalized for reporting an abuse situation, and as a nurse, she would know that.
And you continue to demonstrate your lack of understanding of the Ohio/Ohio State mindset. I'll let people from Ohio carry on with dialogue with you if they wish.

I would not write off Stoops to OSU.
My brother-in-law works for OU in a fairly high up procurement role. He told me months before Stoops (and Boren) resigned that there was something shady. He claimed there were some unethical business dealings, that were not football related, but if uncovered could bury Stooops, Boren, and several of the Board of Regents.
I'm not buying Stoops quit to spend more time with family. If I'm wrong... good for him.

oh absolutely. I'm sure that's what the OSU investigation is looking into right now. Who knew? When did they know? And who did they tell? If this was an open secret and nobody ever did anything, a lot of heads could roll.
I live in Ohio so I dialogue with them every day. You should check out the Toledo guy’s posts since you don’t want to take my word for it.
Some former Florida players on Meyer:
Ajagbe explained how Meyer would psychologically abuse players:
“He’s the kind of dude that would get all the information he needs to get on you and he would use it to manipulate you or he would use it against you.“
“If [Meyer] know that you’re not really smart, he’ll put you in front of the team and make you do trivia. And everyone would laugh at you.”
Nixon also described a pre-game ritual where Meyer would “grab a Gatorade bottle… and throw it at you.”
“I’m sure he thought he was joking, but it’s a f*cking full bottle of Gatorade, and he’s chucking it at people.”

As punishment, that fanbase has to forfeit the stupid lowercase t.
I don't hardly ever have inside info, but I was told cmc loves it here and the only two jobs we need to worry about are Notre dame and Ohio State.
You mean like this reply:
"This x1000..which makes being a fan of any other school incredibly frustrating...I've had many actually question why I don't (and never will) fall on the buckeye sword...."
to my post:
"I know people who are grads of Bowling Green, Akron, etc., but who consider themselves primarily Ohio State fans. It is common. Like I said, Ohio is a different kind of state in this regard. I'm not comparing him to Chiz. Just saying that 90% of people from Ohio bleed crimson and grey."
He is describing how frustrating it is to be the exception to the Ohio State fan mentality, even at Toledo.
I always felt Wisconsin would be a possibility for years. It still might be possible but he just feels so Iowa State now.
