Herman and McMurphy denied it, but it appears a bunch of random Texas people started talking about Zach Smith in the days leading up to the report.
Could that just be a reaction to the one guy posting the police report?

It's not a thing I'd like to spend a second googling. I take it that "Rom Tinaldi," Justin Wells and "VulgarATX" are connected to Texas?
If so, I admit that is interesting.
Still, I'd be careful concluding from it that the Texas community caused this. There's not enough info to reject the possibility that they we're also zooming into this story at a time when McMurphy was zooming in because diffuse hearsay was peaking ("correlation is not causation").

If Urban Meyer has a university issued cell phone, let's hope he learned from Hugh Freeze, and wasn't as careless with what was documented on it. I would assume that would be a big part of the investigation, especially since much of the evidence and conversation around who knew what has been based on text message chains so far.

It appears to me that "RomTinaldi" was the original source.  There is currently a deep rabbit hole Bucknuts is going down trying to find who that is, which I am embarrassed to admit I find fascinating.

Sounds like Zach was also arrested for OVI in 2013. To me, one of the most consistently surprising things about all of this is how insular and uninterested the OSU beat was to print bad PR when it came to Zach Smith. 
That's substantiated by the facts that (1) the DV events never came to light until now, that (2) the OVI arrest also remained on record but unreported, and then by (3) Ramzy's explicit acknowledgement that "everyone knew" about Smith's alcoholism and rumors of abuse but sat on these stories anyway, including himself.

In the media's defense they are probably very used to dealing with Franklin County and the City of Columbus, but the surrounding suburbs all have their own ways of dealing with things.  This case went through Dublin's mayor court, and while it is on their website, I highly doubt reporters would check the suburban courts to check up on the WR coach.  Frankly, I'm a little surprised it took weeks to find that out since became national news.

The saddest part of this one is that Zach Smith publicly ripped the Nebraska coach (Williams) on twitter when he was arrested for the same offense AFTER Zach Smith's offense. I guess Zach's fortune was a media contingent that was either complicit or ignorant to any activity in the Columbus area. At this point Zach deserves everything that comes his way.

Other than Urban's careless response at media day, this is the most dubious utterance by anybody involved in this from the osu side in this.

Thank you.
So, how many? Or, when will the extension be filed?
