Zach Smith has lost his mind. The former Ohio State Buckeyes wide receivers coach, who was fired amid domestic violence allegations, has unleashed a furious Twitter tantrum on social media directed at the media. The main target for Smith is college football insider Brett McMurphy, who broke the story that head coach Urban Meyer had previous knowledge of the allegations despite previously denying any.
Smith has also lashed out at Ohio State and his ex-wife in the Twitter meltdown.
You can check it out below.
Hey @Brett_McMurphy – Ready to start being a real journalist? Ya know… vetting a story?
Oh… no… you don’t know what I mean. Sorry!https://t.co/1skw7lSDBl

Silence = over. I tried. But I cant watch 🤡 like @Brett_McMurphy @finebaum & others at @espn continue 2 run their mouths-not only w/o knowledge but w/ complete disregard 4 my children. Their mother had plenty of disregard 4 them in this. Time 4 u all 2 face the damage ur causing

Hey @Brett_McMurphy @finebaum & EVERYONE @espn – Look at these faces. You heartless and moral-less clowns. Every LIE or dramatic version of the truth you report, you hurt THESE precious children! Just like their mom has and continues to. Do you have families? Kids? pic.twitter.com/9XyIhKrGzx

Not a shield. A reminder to scum like you that your reckless & complete disregard for human beings hurts innocent children. Sorry you viewed it as a shield-but that further proves your ignorance given to you by a laminated piece of cardboard hung around your neck by a lanyard. https://t.co/OyDR8PX42z

Hey @Brett_McMurphy – quick few questions… because you’re an OUTSTANDING “journalist”
1. How’d you get that interview with @CoachTomHerman as your first interview at @WatchStadium?
2. How come you didn’t ask him about the alleged strip club incident that you reported about?
— Zach Smith (@CoachZachSmith) August 29, 2018
Furthermore… @Brett_McMurphy
3. Did you ask him about the ensuing few days?
4. Have you vetted any credibility in ANY of your reports?
I am waiting for one thing that is accurate beyond a name change or photoshop session. I will see you in court you clown.

Let’s talk FACTS since so many people (mainly opposing fanbase’s fans) want to talk.
1. My kids are suffering because of all of this (most important)
2. I never beat my wife
3. OSU botched the investigation and worse off the “punishment”— Zach Smith (@CoachZachSmith) August 29, 2018
4. They forced @OSUCoachMeyer into his statement, I hope at least… because he knows what’s real and would have never apologized.
5. President Drake is either the cause of the joke of an “investigation” or “punishment” or he allowed it.— Zach Smith (@CoachZachSmith) August 29, 2018
Oh… I didn’t forget. The truth will come out. Lol. She is NO victim. https://t.co/amAOdoQPXP

And that’s the point of my tweets. People like you need to just “log off” and “not hit send” with hurtful tweets that you have no knowledge about being based on fact or vengeance. Take you’re own advice, Chris. https://t.co/zZfjtzZK3k

It is very hard to be silent when falsehoods & half-truths are said about you and there is no way to defend yourself. I’ve made mistakes in my life but being a domestic abuser is not one of them! I’ll answer every question in court and under oath when the time comes & cant WAIT!

They got set “ablaze” at the press conference. And everyone at OSU knows that. https://t.co/5pHqXyG8HF

It already got ugly. Ask my kids. Straight scumbag. https://t.co/81XwCIelth

Oh am I? Brenda… I’ve been a huge supporter of everything you’ve ever done. And so sympathetic to what happened to you. But if you can’t see that things aren’t always black and white, or that there is NEVER a false accusation… you’re really working on your own agenda. https://t.co/yaTviV603J
— Zach Smith (@CoachZachSmith) August 29, 2018
Lol wow… you just proved you’re a one sided clown. THEY GOT USED WHEN THEY HAD TO GO TO SCHOOL AND DEAL WITH FALSE ACCUSATIONS AGAIBST THEIR DAD!!!!! Please stop tweeting at me. I used to be a huge fan and supporter… but you just proved you’re not a truth seeker… https://t.co/n7FNz0i99t
