Jacksonville Jaguars strength coach Chris Doyle quits after just ONE DAY following backlash from activists over claims he told black player at Iowa 'to go back to the ghetto'
  • On Thursday, the Jacksonville Jaguars announced new coach Urban Meyer's staff, which included former Iowa strength and conditioning coach Chris Doyle
  • Doyle left Iowa in June after signing a separation agreement amid accusations of racial bias and bullying against team players. He received a $1.1million severance
  • On Friday the team announced that Doyle had resigned, amid widespread concern at his inclusion among the coaching staff
  • In 2018, Meyer was in another scandal involving an assistant of his at Ohio State
  • Meyer was accused of protecting assistant Zach Smith following two separate domestic violence incidents, which Smith's ex-wife said Meyer knew about
  • Meyer did fire Smith in 2018 after another incident. Smith denies the claims

The Jacksonville Jaguars' strength coach has left the team after just one day following uproar over accusations of racism against him at his previous job with the University of Iowa.

Chris Doyle, 52, was hired by Jacksonville on Thursday. On Friday he resigned amid an outcry over his appointment. Doyle previously agreed to leave Iowa's football program in June amid accusations of racism and bullying, which he has denied. He left with a $1.1 million payout and agreed not to take any legal action against the school.

Coach Urban Meyer, 56, said Doyle - a long-time friend - had resigned.
'Chris did not want to be a distraction to what we are building in Jacksonville,' said Meyer, the decorated former college coach who is entering his first NFL job.

New Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Urban Meyer said he accepted Doyle's resignation


'We are responsible for all aspects of our program and, in retrospect, should have given greater consideration to how his appointment may have affected all involved.

'We wish him the best as he moves forward in his career.'

Doyle was accused by more than a dozen players of bullying and discrimination during his tenure at Iowa.

Former players said he mistreated and belittled African Americans, including a claim that he told a black player to 'go back to the ghetto' and threatened to put another 'back on the streets.'

Other players said he joked about black people being afraid of water.

Doyle, who was college football's highest-paid strength coach at $800,000 a year, denied the accusations but agreed not to take any legal action against the school in exchange for a $1.1 million severance package.

An investigation by an outside law firm after his departure found that the program he oversaw 'perpetuated racial and culture biases and diminished the value of cultural diversity,' and allowed coaches to demean players without consequence.

When Doyle was hired, the Fritz Pollard Alliance, whose mission is to increase diversity in the NFL, attacked Jacksonville's leadership and said racist allegations at Iowa should have disqualified Doyle as a coaching candidate.

Meyer was singled out for particular criticism, having vouched personally for his friend.

'At a time when the NFL has failed to solve its problem with racial hiring practices, it is simply unacceptable to welcome Chris Doyle into the ranks of NFL coaches,' the alliance said in a statement Friday.

'Doyle's departure from the University of Iowa reflected a tenure riddled with poor judgment and mistreatment of black players.

'His conduct should be as disqualifying for the NFL as it was for University of Iowa.

'Urban Meyer's statement - "I've known Chris for close to 20 years" - reflects the good ol' boy network that is precisely the reason there is such a disparity in employment opportunities for black coaches.'

In a statement in June, Doyle denied accusations of racial bias as he left the University of Iowa

The accusations against Doyle at Iowa were part of a larger trend within the program.

Former Iowa offensive lineman James Daniels, now with the Chicago Bears, was the first to raise the issue of the Iowa staff's treatment of players before last season.

'There are too many racial disparities in the Iowa football program. Black players have been treated unfairly for far too long,' Daniels tweeted June 5.

Dozens of former players followed with social media posts about their experiences, with many accusing Doyle of making racist remarks and belittling players. Doyle was placed on paid administrative leave June 6.

Former Iowa safety Emmanuel Rugamba told of Doyle admonishing a black teammate and then asked him why he walked with swagger. 'I'll put you back on the streets,' Doyle told the teammate, who Rugamba said came 'from a happy home with both parents'

Former Iowa linebacker Terrance Pryor said Doyle had told him he should take up rowing, then added, 'Oh, wait, black people don't like boats in water, do they?' Former safety Diaunte Morrow alleged Doyle had told him he would send him 'back to the ghetto.'

Former defensive back Emmanuel Rugamba told of Doyle admonishing a black teammate and then asked him why he walked with swagger.

'I'll put you back on the streets,' Doyle told the teammate, according to Rugamba.

As Rugamba explained on Twitter, 'the kid comes from a happy home with both parents.'

Offensive coordinator Brian Ferentz, son of head coach Kirk Ferentz, and assistant defensive coordinator Seth Wallace also have been alleged to have made inappropriate comments to players.

'There were serious and troubling comments by former players ... and it comes during an important time during our nation's history with what happened with George Floyd and the worldwide reaction to his death,' Ferentz said.

'It's given us all a better and deeper understanding of what racism and bias is and I think it's begun an initiative for real change. As a team and program we have a responsibility and a tremendous opportunity at this moment to lead the change and set a higher standard for collegiate football.'

Ferentz said in June that the coaching style by some of his assistants 'at times was demeaning and created unnecessary frustration and anxiety. One byproduct of that is that some of our black athletes feeling they couldn't be themselves in our culture, and to that end we must be more inclusive and more aware.'

The Jags' appointment of Doyle was met with immediate criticism this week.

'Can't make a worst (sic) first impression within a locker room than hiring an accused racist, who was fired from his previous job,' tweeted Daryl Ruiter of Cleveland radio station, WKRK.

'Terrible hire by Urban Meyer.'

Meyer defended the hiring of Doyle on Thursday, saying he 'vetted him thoroughly along with our general manager and owner.'

'I feel great about the hire, about his expertise at that position,' Meyer said.

'I vet everyone on our staff, and like I said, the relationship goes back close to 20 years and a lot of hard questions asked, a lot of vetting involved with all our staff. We did a very good job vetting that one.'

Meyer added that owner Shad Khan was involved with all of the 'high-end hires,' including Doyle.

'I know the person for close to 20 years and I can assure them there will be nothing of any sort in the Jaguar facility,' Meyer said.

Zach Smith (pictured) was protected by Meyer but ultimately sentenced to 180 days in prison in February 2020

Hiring Doyle rekindled memories of Meyer protecting assistant coach Zach Smith for years at Ohio State.

The Buckeyes suspended Meyer for three games shortly before the 2018 season for mishandling Smith's misconduct that included domestic violence allegations, a drug problem and poor job performance.

An investigation turned up 'a pattern of troubling behavior by Zach Smith: promiscuous and embarrassing xesual behavior, drug abuse, truancy, dishonesty, financial irresponsibility, a possible NCAA violation, and a lengthy police investigation into allegations of criminal domestic violence and cybercrimes,' according to summary investigative findings released by the university.

Meyer fired Smith at Ohio State in 2018 when the assistant was charged with misdemeanor criminal trespass after a dispute with his ex-wife Courtney.

Urban Meyer's decision drew criticism on social media, not just because of Doyle's past, but because of his own scandal in which he was accused of protecting an Ohio State assistant facing domestic abuse claims. Meyer (right) fired receiver coach Zach Smith (left) at Ohio State in 2018 when the assistant was charged with misdemeanor criminal trespass after a dispute with his ex-wife Courtney. The arrest led to the revelation that Smith was previously accused of beating her when he worked as an assistant under Meyer at the University of Florida in 2009, when Courtney was pregnant, and again in 2015, when the couple was living near Columbus, Ohio. Courtney later told Stadium.com's Brett McMurphy that she believed Meyer was aware of the attacks

The arrest led to the revelation that Smith was previously accused of beating her when he worked as an assistant under Meyer at the University of Florida in 2009, when Courtney was pregnant, and again in 2015, when the couple was living near Columbus, Ohio. Courtney later told Stadium.com's Brett McMurphy that she believed Meyer was aware of the attacks.

On Thursday, Meyer's social media critics were quick to remember the Smith scandal.

'I would've thought Urban Meyer was tired of having to answer questions about the character of his staff members, if you know what I'm saying,' tweeted The Athletic's Stephen Holder. 'Yet, here we are.'

'Well if Urban Meyer vouches for someone's character,' wrote one sarcastic Twitter user, 'you can take that to the bank.'

Zach Smith pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct in October of 2018 in connection with his arrest in July of that year. He also signed a consent agreement and domestic violence civil protection order preventing him from having contact with Courtney for three years.

Smith violated that protection order in 2019 and was sentenced to 180 days in Jail in February of 2020.

Meyer, who is coming off his second retirement, was ultimately suspended three games as the school determined that he had been aware of the allegations against Smith, but had decided against firing him.

Courtney alleged her then-husband shoved her against a wall and put his hands around her neck in 2015, one of several alleged domestic incidents involving the couple that came to light after he was fired.

As she told Stadium, Courtney said she was left bruised after being attacked by Zach Smith

In the days after his firing, McMurphy spoke with Courtney Smith, who claimed she believed that Meyer was aware of the abuse allegations in 2015 because she had told his wife about the incidents in detail, offering text messages to back up her claim.

Smith has denied hitting his now-former wife.

At the Big Ten media day on July 25, Meyer told reporters that he was unaware of the 2015 incident, and said he would have fired Smith at the time had he known.

After the ensuing outcry over his handling of the matter, Meyer said he knew about the accusations against Smith, but wasn't sure they were true and kept Smith on his staff because no criminal charges were filed. The university cited that lapse in suspending Meyer for the first three games of the 2018 season after an investigation.

In an August statement, Meyer insisted he did not lie to the media, adding that his real misstep was his failure to take 'action sooner against a troubled employee.'

As Meyer later explained, his handling of the situation was clouded by his abiding devotion to the legacy of former Ohio State coach Earle Bruce, Zach's grandfather and an early coaching mentor for Meyer.

Smith played for Meyer at Bowling Green in 2002, when the former was a walk-on. He went on to follow Meyer to Florida, where the head coach would win the first of his three national championships in 2006. After his second title in 2008, Meyer stepped away from football in 2010 before returning to coach the Buckeyes in 2012. He brought along Smith, who would serve as the Buckeye's wide receivers coach.

Honestly, I don’t feel sorry for these grown ass black men who accepted this kind of debasing treatment over some fµck!ng football game. And I’m talking about the time he was at the university before his ass was fired.

Hmmm, Meyer hired an accused racist and protected an alleged abuser.

As the saying goes, you are the company you keep... :whistle:

received a $1.1million severance

And he will probably be hired again. e1

Exactly - seems like this white man will benefit quite handsomely. He will certainly be rehired at a similar salary with 1.1 mill "bonus" in his bank account.

Such bµllsh!t.

when it’s your livelihood you have no choice. Free education, possibly entry to the NFL, most are fighting for family.

Honestly, I don’t feel sorry for these grown ass black men who accepted this kind of debasing treatment over some fµck!ng football game. And I’m talking about the time he was at the university before his ass was fired.

When he was at the university he was dealing with 19 and 20-year old boys, not "grown ass black men"

But of course you don't feel sorry for them, that would require some of you to actually speak ill of racist white men, which you'll never do.

That's not fair. For many of them, it's their only chance to make it in this world and break generations of poverty. They start out very young, not as experienced grown ass men as you think.
A lot of these young men ( some children) go through horrible abuse that they don't even talk about. There's so much going on in that world that we don't hear about because they don't talk about it. Men are expected to just suck it up, especially black men (as women).

I watched a football (soccer)documentary about young black men here in Europe, from how they recruit them and the abuse that goes on in the process.
I can only imagine what these young black men go through knowing the history of African Americans in the USA.

Ok, one dude actually transferred to another school.
But did they ask you to feel sorry for them?
And this is not some football game, it's their career. You don't have to have sympathy for them BP deal with racism at work everyday.

Why are you just now side eying him? Most of his championship team at Florida are crazy.

I don't follow Urban Meyer like that, all I know is him coaching at Florida and Ohio St....

Meyer is bad news. This guy was a strength and conditioning coach. Not even an assistant coach. He’s not worth fighting for yet Meyer goes out of his way to force him onto the team. Smh. He’s used to being able to bully college kids who are in no win situations if they dare to challenge him. The NFL is a different place. Free agents are not going to want to go there anyway. This isn’t helping.
