USC is falling off the rails, Alabama is Jekyll and Hyde, Colorado and Coach Prime are becoming cold product, Texas is no longer back, and UGA hasn’t looked their best. They need something to talk about.

Could Harbaugh simply be a better program builder than Ryan Day? Day took over in 2019. Harbaugh has good but not elite teams before 19 and now, 3 years in a row his teams are elite. Could he simply be winning recruiting battles and evaluations against their biggest competition?

3 years in a row Michigan has been elite?

I mean, they cheated...I'm not sure why people are having a hard time with this.

Do others do it - I'm sure, but they have been smart enough to not get caught.

That said, Michigan has violated an NCAA rule, so the NCAA is investigating. Could you imagine if Bama had done this, been caught, and the NCAA turned a blind eye? The rest of the SEC would be beside themselves screaming about how they broke the rules and are getting away with it.


Dude, you serious?

Numerous SEC teams have been caught, and the NCAA turned a blind eye

1) Can Newtons dad's bank account was discovered to have a $180k during the time Cam was selecting where to go. But the ruling by the NCAA was, well we don't have evidence that cam knew about the money. Laughable

2) DJ Fluker admitting that Bama players get cash/gifts for playing at Bama

3) Tennessee had hundreds of violations under Pruitt, and nothing really happened to them

LINK

4) UNC offered bogus classes, but since regular students could also take them, but NCAA rule the FB and BB players couldn't be punished

5) Drake Maye stated that multiple SEC teams tampered and offered him $1M to transfer to their program last year

6) Roy Manning (asst coach) was recruiting for USC even though he was employed by OU when Riley took the USC job, no one gave a sh*t

2 Big 10 titles, 2 wins over Ohio state, 2 playoff appearances, and an undefeated juggernaut-looking team (albeit against absolutely nobody) so far.

Yes, that’s three years in a row they look elite.

When did stealing signs become such a big deal. It's an acceptable practice in baseball, not sure why football it's any different

Exactly. Michigans worry is not the NCAA. Their worry is the Big Ten conference. The other schools are not going to be happy about this and the commissioner does have authority to act and he can do it much quicker than the NCAA.

There’s a big difference between knowing which one of three pitches is coming at you and a roadmap to the other teams entire playbook.

So you're counting 2023 as one of those even though they haven't played anyone yet.

Tells me everything I need to know. From a common sense point of view, it’s nothing more than so-called journalists trying to get a story. This is the same coach that missed games over a cheeseburger. Put out the evidence of so-called sign stealing that made a difference in a game or STFU.

Do they, or do they not look elite this year? Jesus you’re being so fricking contrarian in this thread. I get it, you hate Michigan and Harbaugh. You hate that they stole signs and want them punished to the absolute fullest extent possible.

To not admit that they have been elite the last 2 years and so far this season reeks of insecurity and jealousy from Ohio state fans.

I think it would take a vote of all the B10 ADs and/or presidents but they don't need to the NCAA to vacate and ban.

You're the one claiming they didn't do anything to gain a competitive advantage.

According to Big Ten's sportsmanship policy, commissioner Tony Petitti has "exclusive authority" to see if offensive actions have occurred, and to impose discipline. Policy lists "integrity of the competition" as a fundamental element Big Ten members must uphold.


And if this isn’t an integrity of the competition violation I don’t know what is.

Never once did I say the didn’t do anything wrong. I’m simply pushing back against Harbaugh was a mediocre coach and now apparently that Michigan has not been elite since 2021.

He's not gonna act this quickly against their #1 or #2 cash cow. And Michigan is now (according to Vegas) the favorite to win the CFP.
