UM (Michigan) in big trouble ?

Imagine the headlines if this was Miami. So many Big Ten schools have been caught up in major scandals, with some that could be described as horrific, but somehow they are able to keep their pristine image.

Some?? I would say most! This one is horrendous and it’s still doesn’t match up to the others that all involved athletes and kids getting Diddy’d

Michigan has been a playoff team for the last 2 years in a row now.

All this acting like they’re some Martyr & a victim that the NCAA is out to get is complete fckin Horsesh*t.

They’re nothing but a bunch of cheating frauds who kept losing in big games until they started stealing signals, then all of the sudden became this unbeatable team bulldozing over everybody. Everybody except the teams they couldn’t steal from, UGA & TCU & in those games they got beat because they didn’t have the advantage of literally knowing their opponents plays.

You guys like Michigan because you like that brand of Cro-Magnon ball & you like Harbaugh because he’s a meathead & a lot of you guys sympathize with simplicity & easy to understand style Football. I get it, but trust & believe Michigan is NOT a victim. This isn’t an NCAA witch-hunt, this is a fraudulent Coach & a fraudulent program being caught doing fraudulent sh*t in order to gain an upper hand because they got tired of losing. Up until 2 years ago, Harbaugh’s record against ranked opponents was absolutely horrendous, then all of the sudden he starts winning these games he ALWAYS lost & a lot of yall think that’s a testament to staying patient & waiting 5-6 years before getting results with the slow-build trench theme approach. But it’s not. Without cheating, Harbaugh is no different than the likes of King Corches like Jumbo Fisher, Brian Kelly & others.

They sell this blue-collar lunch-pale image & pretend like they’re the little guys, Michigan is literally one of the top 3 most profitable programs in all of College Football, they’re just behind TAMU & Texas. They’ve ALWAYS played the Bag game heavy in recruiting before NIL became legal, it was well known that Michigan was paying players big time. So this isn’t some poor little guy being picked on, this is a Blueblood team that has a ton of prestige & storied legacy behind their brand & name, who despite having high level talent, unlimited resources & complete backing from their administration still couldn’t get over the hump because Harbaugh simply couldn’t get it done...

UNTIL HE STARTED CHEATING.

They are not sympathetic figures & this is not a case where Miami fans should see them as such, this is one of the teams that has stolen recruits from us for years on the trail getting caught with their hands in the cookie jar. Not to mention, they suckered our HC into believing that their sh*t for brains over-arrogant OC was actually good at his job & hired him here because he was trying to replicate what he & many of you thought was something legitimate. And as a result of that it gave us the worst season we’ve had in **** near 3 decades.

I get it, you hate OH ST & you hate Notre Dame, therefore you somehow think that Michigan being able to cheat is a good thing because it could possibly bring those 2 programs down, trust me I get the logic. But Michigan is not our friend, they’re not a sympatico parallel as Outlaws of CFB like we once were, they’re equally just as snobby & just as sh*tty of program & fans as Oh ST & ND & they look down on us the same way those 2 have for decades. We don’t have the same rivalry with Mich as we do with those others, but I promise you Michigan feels the same way about Miami as Oh ST does & have so historically.

Michigan will probably have the book thrown at them & made an example of because of this & they will DESERVE it 1,000%.

All the sign stealing that started this was found on Matt Weiss's computer when he illegally accessed the universities email's, campus police were called and confiscated his computer. Their were gambling cookies on it supposedly according to the B1G report. Rumors are now starting up that UM coaches were betting on UM games. I hope not, they are in enough trouble.

I've worked with several Michigan grads over the years. Nice people but very arrogant. You know it is true when their people wave "Harvard, the Michigan of the east" signs when they played the Ivy League school in hockey. They share similar DNA with StatePenn and ohioTaint although StatePenn was the worst under JoePa. They were worse than NLame fans.

Michigan could not have played this any better to avoid any major sanctions from the NCAA. Win a title with the help of cheating, fire the mastermind (Stallings), the Head Coach leaves (can now blame him and say this was under his direction), and they had like 30 players enter the draft or graduate.

The NCAA won't drop the hammer on a blue blood, major program. They just won't. They will likely say it was all Stallings and Harbaugh knew or didn't know but doesn't really matter since he's gone. They will probably get hit with a fine, lose some recruiting visits, and maybe become bowl in-eligible for this year. But none of that really matters coming off a natty.
 
They are not Saban and they are not $ec.. That ******* hammer is dropping on them!

Soooooo UofM’s punishment is to punish the head of the snake (pause) who no longer is employed by said UofM, who’s not even in the game of CFB? Am I understanding this “scathing” report correctly? Ssssssortainly I’m missing something in these sanctions, correct; like scholarship reductions, bowl bans, etc., right?
