So ESPN reported on the suspension before the Big Ten even notified Michigan? Say what you will about the result the issue, but it being communicated to media first is absolute bullshit.

Imagine a trial where the defendant was informed after national media. As a conference, Big Ten look stupid.

Agree. That is BS.

B1G letter is a joke.  The intentional chicken shit timing alone is likely enough to get a temporary restraining order.
From a Michigan alum judge in Ann Arbor, probably. 

From a legitimate judicial officer, no way.

Ok that might be as equally absurd as how Big Ten handled the communication and timing. It honestly might be funny if the judge give the conference the middle finger at say… 11:15 am tomorrow. Or wait until the commission is on a plane. But of course, notify the media first.

leaks don't seem to be much of a bad thang these days

didn't the supreme court have a leak or two?

Michigan's offense is so egregious that the AD's had to approve the punishment. Leaks were inevitable.

if the commissioner had any real power or balls, he could have suspended Jim a few weeks ago w/o a leak
