OT: The Guy Who Busted Urban Meyer
I know, people are tired of the Urban Meyer story. But the story of the guy largely responsible for outing him with the two videos is actually pretty interesting. Here is the full story:
https://www.foxbusiness.com/sports/electrician-shocked-nfl-videos-urban-meyer
The guy is a big OSU fan, and he actually used to write for Elevenwarriors at one point, but was not a fan of Urban. He turned on Meyer after the Zack Smith story and the university response. He got the first video and posted it under a burner Twitter account. Someone then sent him the second, more obvious "hoo-ha touching" video and posted that too (after thinking, "there were two shooters in the club that night???").
Also, he ran for the state house of representatives in Ohio, and apparently robbed some drug dealers in Montana. Fascinating guy. He lives in Columbus, and my guess is that he is going to receive some "strongly worded" emails from the OSU faithful after being revealed in this story...

First off, I don’t think anyone around here is tired of the urban Meyer story.
Secondly, this guy gave a gift to the whole world with his burner tweets. DJ Byrnes, you deserve a moniker for your strong work: DJ Burner, slot cornerback.

Does anyone else get the feeling that "DJ Burner" is Michael Barrett's burner account
October 8th, 2021 at 12:17 PM ^
Can we stop with the Michael Barret stuff? This kid did nothing, but become the butt of a joke because some idiot poster thinks he should play more.

Beating a dead horse to a gelatinous pulp is an MGoBlog pastime. Might as well get used to it.

Keith Jackson agrees with this statement.
October 8th, 2021 at 2:06 PM ^
My understanding is that Keith Jackson likes it when that statement is a little faster though.
Did I do it right?
October 8th, 2021 at 2:21 PM ^
I think you're referring to Fred Jackson?

Oddly enough, "Gelatinous pulp" was the original name term for canned gravy.
It didn't market test well.
October 9th, 2021 at 10:18 AM ^
Gelatinous Pulp And Meat didn’t cut it either. SPAM just had a better ring to it.
October 8th, 2021 at 1:07 PM ^
I think the poster that suggested he play fullback is the butt of that joke. Barret looks pretty good when he gets in, he got the first down on the fake punt against Washington and he had a really good hit against Wisconsin back when he got in.
I hope he’s able to get some more playing time. Dude plays intense when he’s in the game.

Every time I see that that sanctimonious asshole twisting the wind for excuses, I can only think "Gold! Jerry! Gold!" I would be happy for a few more videos to be released.
October 8th, 2021 at 12:18 PM ^
Just a point of clarification, though: Spinner Meyer posted a photo of herself at home with the grandkids while Urban was out overtaking a**. Does that mean that he was flat-out lying about eating out with the grandkids, or did they have a meal and go home?
I reluctantly agree with people who say that if the Meyers have sex lives outside their marriage it's none of our business. But cringy drunken videos and lies are another story. Because of that, the question of whether he was just completely lying about the grands or whether that part was honest seems important to me. Or like it might be important to his employers.
October 8th, 2021 at 1:08 PM ^
I agree, but if there sex lives and lies become public because they can't seem to get their stories straight, and he can't wait till he's in private to start doodling his girlfriends butt hole that's on them. Now we know why they jumped to Zack Smith's defense.
October 9th, 2021 at 8:24 AM ^
There's a Sex, Lies, and Videotape joke in here somewhere.
October 8th, 2021 at 2:10 PM ^
Yes, while the behavior and decision making is reprehensible, it is how he (or his unscrupulous and clearly unintelligent lawyer) always comes up with an excuse and lie to make him out to be an innocent victim. This happened in Gainesville. We saw it multiple times in Columbus (Zack Smith, brain cyst). This isn’t even the first time we saw it in Jacksonville (hiring Iowa coach). He makes terrible decisions, some of them are disgusting and morally bankrupt decisions, while others are just foolish. But the thing that ties them all together is the ridiculous and sanctimonious lie when he gets caught.
October 8th, 2021 at 5:51 PM ^
The guy almost certainly has NPD (narcissistic personality disorder), it’s how he’s gotten through his entire life and it’s why he is uncomfortable if he loses any amount of control of any situation and therefore devises a lie and victimizes himself although he is the one doing the victimizing….empathy and humility are literally foreign concepts to him.
October 8th, 2021 at 8:17 PM ^
No need to play amateur psychiatrist here. Most likely, he's just a regular, garden-variety ass.
October 8th, 2021 at 2:44 PM ^
TBH, I don't think he was knowingly lying just because he would've been dead-to-rights caught if he was. His wife would've called him out for lying. If the wife didn't care, the people who took the videos would've called him out for lying. If not them, one of the dozens of other witnesses in the restaurant. He either misspoke or his grandkids were there earlier. Or his genuinely an idiot that can't foresee three steps ahead of his lie. I refuse to believe the latter because imagine your football team getting whooped every year by an idiot who can't plan three moves ahead in a chess game.
October 8th, 2021 at 3:37 PM ^
LOL’ed at, ‘his wife would’ve called him out for lying.’ Aside from that remarkably foolish comment, your straw man argument smells like that of an Ohio man. Urban lied, again. And he just cannot get it done like Harbaugh did in the nfl when he has to deal with a salary cap.
October 8th, 2021 at 5:04 PM ^
Plus one for working, “overtaking ass” into conversation.
October 8th, 2021 at 12:23 PM ^
Any "Urban is a flaming pile of shit" story is like crack to me. So, after months of detox after being massively addicted to Urban's flame out at Ohio State, along comes this DJ Byrnes character and his tweets and I've fallen off the wagon completely.
October 8th, 2021 at 10:59 AM ^
I was really hoping the person or woman (or both) were Michigan fans.
Bummer.
October 8th, 2021 at 11:03 AM ^
On that topic, Urban almost certainly knew the "dancing woman" before that night, as others pointed out earlier this week. She works for the media and marketing company that works for Urban's Chophouse (where the video was shot, and which Meyer partially owns). Urban's "strangers trying to get me to dance" story is pure bullshit, shockingly:
October 8th, 2021 at 11:15 AM ^
A married man lying about his actions around a young lady in a bar? News at 11.
October 8th, 2021 at 11:48 AM ^
Who teaches an ethics class....
October 8th, 2021 at 11:52 AM ^
I heard Tressel was going to take over for him :0
October 8th, 2021 at 11:17 AM ^
this was widely circulated the day he issued his 'statement'....
October 8th, 2021 at 11:20 AM ^
Lemme see if I got this straight:
• Meyer used his grandchildren as an excuse for bumping butts with the woman
• She earlier posted a question asking who this guy flirting with her was (or was that someone else?)
• She works for the company that works for Meyer
• The company is conducting an “investigation” into some nebulous “impact on the company,” which sounds like a way to avoid commenting or making a decision until it finds out if anyone powerful is mad at them. If so, she’s fired because she was trying to seduce him. If not, she keeps her job because the whole thing is harmless.
Isn’t Ohio big on taking responsibility for your actions?
October 8th, 2021 at 11:57 AM ^
The "who is flirting with me" girl is a different girl
October 8th, 2021 at 11:26 AM ^
So Mr. Meyer, you admit you grabbed her can. Do you have anything to say for yourself? Your lies will only incriminate you further.
October 8th, 2021 at 11:31 AM ^
" it was at that point I realized I needed to remove myself from the situation before things escalated. I couldn't find my keys and thought I might have left them in her ass, that's all."
October 8th, 2021 at 2:07 PM ^
Or her hoo hoo and they were way back in there
October 9th, 2021 at 5:03 PM ^
I watched the video. If they were in there, he would have found them.
October 8th, 2021 at 1:32 PM ^
Mr Simpson noooooo!!
*Dramatizationmaynothavehappened
October 8th, 2021 at 7:15 PM ^
Sweet can.
October 8th, 2021 at 1:06 PM ^
What are the odds Meyer is having an affair with this woman? I put the over/under at 100%.
October 8th, 2021 at 11:47 AM ^
Nah, it would undercut the story and make it seem like rivalry pettiness instead of Meyer being the lying scumbag he is. An OSU fan with a conscience posting it is best case scenario really.
October 8th, 2021 at 11:00 AM ^
He once got in trouble for allegedly trying to rob some drug dealers in Montana. He took classes at Ohio State, though he never graduated, and still roots for the football team. He ran for the Ohio state House of Representatives and lost, garnering just 24.5% of the vote.
I feel like this is the perfect background profile for “Ohio Man”.
October 8th, 2021 at 11:02 AM ^
Ohio Man appears to be Florida Man, but with lower humidity.
October 8th, 2021 at 1:05 PM ^
I feel that a real Ohio Man would have robbed drug dealers in Ohio.
October 8th, 2021 at 11:02 AM ^
I had to laugh at Shelly Meyer's media response to her husband's actions. Taken from an article headline: "We are all sinners" lol
October 8th, 2021 at 11:14 AM ^
I've always said when a guy has been caught multiple times - it means the wife doesn't care.
There is a lot of smoke that they are swingers so she probably watched the video of her husband exploring Cayman and laughed while riding the 21 year old pool boy.
October 8th, 2021 at 11:19 AM ^
there's no way she isn't fully aware of who she's married to, clearly the $$ is what she's after.
she stopped just short of...
“I’m not sitting here some little woman standing by my man like Tammy Wynette"
October 8th, 2021 at 11:49 AM ^
If she were in it for the money then why not divorce his ass and get half of everything and not have to put up with his shit?? She stays for something else...
October 8th, 2021 at 12:28 PM ^
I think I already answered this... the something else is likely a 21 year old pool boy or fitness instructor or tennis pro.
October 8th, 2021 at 1:05 PM ^
My response was directed at Booted not you. I agree with you, somethings afoot.
October 8th, 2021 at 1:36 PM ^
Yeah, I got that. I was just joking around.
