The ex-wife of former Ohio State assistant coach Zach Smith has opened up about the domestic violence involving her former husband and what she believes Urban Meyer knew.
In an exclusive interview with Stadium, Courtney Smith discussed the alleged domestic violence incidents she suffered at the hands of her ex-husband Zach Smith, who served on Meyer’s staff for 11 years at Florida and Ohio State.
Wednesday, reports surfaced that Courtney Smith reached out to Shelley Meyer, Urban Meyer’s wife, as well as the wives of other Ohio State staff members to inform them of the abuse. Despite his denial at B1G Media Days, the report from Brett McMurphy claims that the Buckeyes’ head coach knew more than he claimed.
Below is the interview Courtney Smith conducted with Stadium, explaining the situation she endured and what she told Shelley Meyer:
