Urban Meyer's Bad Decision (Reprise)

In retrospect, it was a “bad decision” to hire Zach Smith as Ohio State receivers coach in 2012, three years after Smith was arrested in Florida for a domestic violence incident, Urban Meyer admitted to ESPN in 2018. Nine years after that bad decision, Meyer made another bad decision that he realized … in retrospect … was a bad decision.

“Chris Doyle came to us this evening to submit his resignation and we have accepted. Chris did not want to be a distraction to what we are building in Jacksonville," Meyer said in a Friday night statement announcing Doyle's resignation as the Jacksonville Jaguars’ Director of Sports Performance.
