I don't know of ANY history or past precedent similar to this.
this wasn't like stealing the 3rd base coach's signs

the precedent is explained in that entire paragraph that you just selectively clipped...Thameltoe spelled it out- the NCAA drops the hammer when dealing with player eligibility issues....players being paid/compensated, getting impermissible benefits, or being academically ineligible and still participating in games. That isn't the case here and it's not really going to be a thing going forward because: YAY NIL.

let's not forget the president of the NCAA Charlie Baker stating on camera that Michigan's football national championship was earned "fair and square" meaning: they NCAA ain't vacating shit. let us also not forget: NCAA has zero jurisdiction over the playoff, the TV networks own it/control it....and they ain't about to punish one of the top 3 or so TV draws because: money money money.....MONNNNN-EEEEEY.

Seven Michigan coaches committed level 1 violations.keep whistling past the grave yard
You can't spell "ILLEGITIMATE CHAMPION" without "MICHIGAN"

Reminds me of one of @MaximumSam 's clients.  When the trial concluded the client had to step out of the room and didn't hear the verdict being read.  The client came back and asked Max what happened.  Max told him that justice was served.  The client said . . . 


Can we appeal?

So let me get this straight.. NCAA is idiotic in every facet of college football the last few years, EXCEPT their accusations and description of the Michigan situation is spot-on and pretty much einstein-esque?

Sounds like fans that became spoiled by their team grasping at straws and can't dealing with losing.

NCAA is still idiotic and I'll add glacially slow.  It took them almost a year from EVERYONE who follows CFB knowing that the University of Michigan had a paid Football Coach on the sidelines of a CMU/MSU game in clear violation of NCAA rules to get a NOA out.  

That said, nice deflection but Michigan's rampant cheating is undeniable.  The response is what interests me.  

At least @Mdot21 has the balls to own it.  His response is more-or-less:
"Fk the NCAA, Fk tOSU, Fk rules, my Fking team won and I'm Fking ok with them Fking cheating so long as they Fking win."  

Yours is:
"Hey look, a squirrel".

The NCAA is idiotic in almost everything they do

The ONE important thing they are responsible for and usually idiotic about... their main function is to enforce the rules of fair play and punish cheating

if they punish Michigan for this level of cheating with a slap on the wrist, they are truly idiotic

Even though it's a parable in a round about way you're lumping him in with the weasels. The season is upon us so there'll be no more of that :cheer:

No doubt without Stalions Michigan would not have put 297 yards rushing on the Buckeyes in 2021.  LOL

Is it your assertion that Michigan was so incompetent that their rampant cheating provided them no benefit?

We'll put you down for this category:
And then some of them "well the second half of the season there was no Stalions and they still won it all so obviously it wasn't THAT much of an advantage" excuse.

As to Michigan's rushing, they were a good rushing team in 2021 and Ohio State's defense was suspect to put it mildly so Michigan's rushing for 297 isn't shocking.   What WAS shocking was them holding Ohio State's National #1 Offense to just 458 yards and 27 points.  I'm sure you think that knowing the plays in advance due to rampant cheating had no impact there.
