CMU is actually complicit, so they are particularly screwed

I surf YouTube at times at night and the only fellow I find "interesting" on CFB is Josh Pate, he had a short bit last night on this, and basically said "I told ya.".  Nobody is going to drop Michigan from TV interest, it's not going to happen.

Post season ban - no shot.  Uncount wins - nope.  Scholarships?  Do those even matter any more?  Really, a high profile team can reserve scholarships for third stringers and still sign 5 stars as "walk ons".

I don't see how uncounting wins would hurt TV ratings - that could have EASILY been done and is the most "right" thing to do.

The playoffs (and bowls) are not an NCAA thing. What can they do about it, besides nothing?

Also, how can the State of Michigan allow Stallions to work at the HS level?

The guy literally just hand-delivered a 5* QB in the 2025 class to Michigan. So, he's still working for Michigan? Only at the HS level?

This smells very bad.

Michigan announces it will appeal the NCAA Committee on Infractions ruling and will “consider all other options”
At this point you couldn't write a movie script this absurd. Won't be long before the NCAA apologizes and cancels the fines

I love the smell of butthurt in the morning.

LMAO @ all the bucknutjobs like that loser Brohio wearing full on face masks from the Stallions documentary who were saying for years Michigan is getting the hammer….death penalty incoming!

Michigan has broken the entire Ohio State fan base. It’s glorious.

I don't think a name program could do anything to get the death penalty.  They could break every single rule and not work with the investigators at all and still not get it.  It's not a thing. 
Part if it is the changing times, but another part of it is the reality of what it did to SMU.  It didn't hurt them for 6-7 years, like one might have thought it would.  It broke their program for decades.

The most comical irony from my seat is how so many people are complaining about how the NCAA got the punishment so wrong, yet are dead set on believing all of their investigation and statements are without flaw. On one side they’re idiots and on the other they are spot on with all their accusations.

And many seem to need the reminder that after the original accusations, under the microscope, Michigan still beat MSU, Purdue, Penn State, Maryland, OSU, Iowa, Alabama and Washington. Every one of those teams had the opportunity to prove that cheating was the reason for Michigan’s earlier wins.

I mean Michigan could have told MSU what THEY were going to run, and won by 30, so I dont put much stock there
