harbaugh didn’t know!!! stallions went rogue!!!

Two years ago, he's on the hot seat.  Suddenly they can't lose and he's negotiating an extension.

brian kelly is one of the few coaches who can make me root for saban. harbaugh would be another.

mrussel1

Hmmm. Tough break there Harbaugh.  The whole conference is pulling for him since he's such a great guy.

There is some serious evidence:  https://www.elevenwarriors.com/the-big-ten/2023/11/142775/ncaa-knew-and-could-prove-michigan-conducted-in-person-scouting-scheme-using-master-spreadsheet-as-evidence

MICHIGAN’S “MASTER SPREADSHEET” DETAILS SIGN-STEALING ACTIVITIES

The NCAA obtained what it described as a “master spreadsheet” from Michigan that “included a very large amount of detailed information regarding the impermissible scheme.” Per the notice of disciplinary action, the spreadsheet included the following items:

• a large and detailed chart listing the names of various individuals assigned to attend past and future football games involving the University’s scheduled football opponents 
• similar in-person attendance assignments for past and future games involving highlyranked, non-conference football opponents (presumably potential University football opponents in post-season games)
• notations showing whether in-person attendance at non-conference games would be necessary depending on different win/loss scenarios
• the 2023 game schedules of the university’s scheduled football opponents
• color-coding to reflect past games actually attended by assigned individuals and future games for which individual assignments were still needed 
• the names of individuals assigned to certain cities and locations 
• monetary amounts associated with certain assigned games

Connor Stalions’ name was “prevalent” in the master spreadsheet, per the league’s disciplinary notice.

Between Oct. 20 and Nov. 4, the Big Ten received additional documentation from conference numbers that indicated Stalions purchased tickets to at least four games in 2021, 13 games in 2022 and five games in 2023 involving future Michigan opponents at other Big Ten schools. SEC commissioner Greg Sankey also informed the Big Ten that Stalions purchased tickets to the SEC Championship Game.

What an expectedly weak punishment.

I have 2 Michigan friends who are massively pissed off....and I don't blame them.  They didn't enjoy, however, when I shared that I thought this was wayyyyyyy too little of an overall punishment.
Rushing to do it, Big 10 is fucking it up.

It’s wild how much Michigan fans now sound like Patriots fans.  It’s not being a bad fan to admit the obvious,  your team cheated and got caught. Stop excusing it

Jim's never gonna be even remotely like Pete Carroll.
Jim is an asshole with no friends and no nattys.

Agree.  The whining made me want to puke after the game.  "When your back is against the wall....when everyone is against you...."
Fuck the hell off.  You knew the plays of the teams you were playing.  The punishment should ve worse than anything we've seen from joke NCAA.  I'm sure they will now do nothing given what the Big 10 did and the reaction everyone is having

Man same result every year for Penn State beat everyone but Ohio St. and Michigan

This isn't it.  The NCAA is going to levy its own punishment but that won't be until next year.  The BIG can do more.

I would hope so but I know better than to expect smart responses from a bs organization like the NCAA

They exist to make money and Michigan is a money maker. So I don't expect something material.

Does the Pac even pretend to play defense? It's absurd sometimes.

Especially after you had one good year out of the contract.

Anybody catch the fill in Michigans coach interview at the end of the game?  Quite a few expletive's on live TV, lol.

did harbaugh really refer to michigan as “america’s team”? OMG.

what’s lincoln riley’s buyout cost?

FSU qb injury was gruesome  

F Me In The Brain

Three turtledoves.
He is overrated.  Should just be onside kicking every time there is a kickoff, with that defense.     
Losing to both ND and fUCLA in the same season is a sin, as SC coach.  Sure, we want to be conference Champs and win Rose Bowls 
...play for more, but the absolute minimum from the people who went there is to win those games.
Played worst two games of the year in those games.

Sometimes being a fan is not a whole lot of fun!

Also...Bo Nix, 6 TDs in first half?  Impressive, even for a 5th year qb  (still think it is wild looking at how many games some of these qbs started.  Covid was a change up. 5th year isn't unusual with redshirts....but having kids play 5 years is.)

Definitely taints some of the record books.

Is Lincoln Riley a Clay Helton 2.0? Hope so!

Not that bad but advertised as so much more.

matt rhule coached that game like a total pussy. if you don’t think you can win in regulation, what makes you think you’ll win in OT?

I’ve decided there’s only two teams to root for to win it all - THEosu or georgia.

fuck michigan and harbaugh.

fuck washington. I thought I was OK with them but odunze, penix and the DB were all doing a lot of flexing last night. oregon state kind of fucked up.

fuck FSU….historical hate for that “school”

fuck oregon aka phil knight state

bama or texas? fuck them, too.
