The Three Kitties That Saved My Life by Mike Meyer

In his jubilant and revivifying memoir, I Remember, the artist and writer Joe Brainard tabulated all the little things that can come to shape how we think about life. There can always be at least a glimmer of joy in remembering things that people gave us while they were here. However, he did fail to take sufficient management action regarding Zach Smith - and he was not as complete and accurate at media days and did not uphold the high standards and values of the university on that day.But not even sorrow is one-dimensional. 'I want to state clearly that we believe Urban Meyer did not and does not condone domestic abuse. He also pointed to school President Michael Drake's statement from the day Meyer was disciplined, which said: University spokesman Chris Davey said the decision to suspend Meyer was based on the information in the independent investigation. Meyer says he stands by an earlier apology to Smith's ex-wife, Courtney Smith, and her children. He clearly misspoke and made misstatements, but the reasons that happened are complex.' The report says: 'Although it is a close question and we cannot rule out that Coach Meyer was intentionally misleading in his answers, we do not ultimately find that he was. The report says Meyer took that intention too far even after conversations with the athletic director and others about how to respond to questions. Investigators said they do not believe Meyer 'deliberately' lied, but said they can't rule it out and that he clearly intended to not disclose details about Smith's issues to media. Meyer also says: 'I did not lie at Big Ten Media Days' when he told reporters he didn't know about accusations against Smith. The report also said Meyer didn't think there was enough to report Smith's issues to compliance officers, which investigators called a misunderstanding of the reporting requirements. Investigators say Meyer knew about several allegations against the coach before the coach was fired. Meyer says it's not accurate that he was suspended because he 'knew about or condoned Zach Smith's alleged domestic abuse.' Investigators say Meyer didn't properly handle the abuse claims and other bad behavior from the assistant coach.

Meyer was suspended three games for mismanaging former wide receivers coach Zach Smith, who has been accused of domestic abuse by his ex-wife, Courtney Smith.
