Former Ohio State assistant Zach Smith has been in the news for a lot of the wrong reasons the past couple of years.
Now, he’s once again in the headlines, as he has been sentenced to a stint in jail for violating the conditions of a civil protection order back in December.
Per Nicole Auerbach of The Athletic, Smith will have to serve at least 20 days of his 180 day sentence and has other conditions, like anger management and community service that he must fulfill:

Smith has served as an assistant under Urban Meyer during stops at Florida and Ohio State. He was fired by the Buckeyes back in 2018.
Meyer was suspended for 3 games back in 2018 for his handling of an alleged domestic violence incident involving Smith.
