Never in my life have I heard ANY @OhioStateFB coach use a racial slur, and there is NO CHANCE Coach Meyer would ever allow that. You're trying to kill Urban's career and I'm not here for it. https://t.co/Suxhzn8Jiv

Trevon Grimes was my best friend back then... and is still my best friend to this day.
