Ohio State football coach Urban Meyer said it is "wrong and irresponsible" to connect him or his former University of Florida staff to the murder charge facing Aaron Hernandez.
In texts to the Columbus Dispatch and the Gainesville Sun on Saturday, Meyer said there was no cover-up of drug tests during Hernandez's time at Florida. Meyer coached Florida from 2005 to 2010.
These were Meyer's first comments about Hernandez after he declined to comment earlier this week.
