2010 TSUN News offseason (football)

For once, RR has got something right about the chips on their shoulders.

But they're cow chips, which explains the stench on that football program.

U-M expected to release findings of football investigation today


Ann Arbor -- The University of Michigan is expected to release Tuesday the findings of an NCAA investigation into alleged violations in the football program.
A news conference is scheduled for 1 p.m. and will include U-M president Mary Sue Coleman, incoming athletic director Dave Brandon and football coach Rich Rodriguez.
Michigan launched its own investigation shortly after the Detroit Free Press reported late last August that several current and former players alleged that Rodriguez's football program violated NCAA rules regarding time restrictions on off-season workouts and the 20-hour in-season practice week.

Rodriguez said at the time he did not break any rules.
The NCAA last October sent the university an official letter of inquiry indicating it would continue its investigation into the allegations. The NCAA said in the letter it hoped to conclude the investigation by the end of 2009.
More recently, the U-M Regents held a closed-door meeting on Feb. 3 to discuss the NCAA probe.
On Sunday during a rally hosted by U-M fans to support Rodriguez and the football program, Rodriguez spoke to the nearly 700 gathered at the Michigan Theater and mentioned the investigation.
"We have an issue with the NCAA," Rodriguez said. "That's going to be resolved, and I feel confident at the end of the summer we'll be through that.
"Can you imagine if Bo (Schembechler) was told (by) the NCAA, 'You worked too hard.' Maybe we worked too hard, I don't know. But our players are totally committed."

I was watching first take on ESPN this morning and they were talking about how someone paid $9,000 for a pair of autographed Joe Pa glasses. Dana Jacobs kept saying how she could see someone paying that kind of money for them. Skip ended the argument with this question to Jacobs "How much money would you pay for a win!"

NCAA: U-M football made 5 major rule violations

The NCAA has issued a notice of allegations to the University of Michigan alleging five major violations in its football program. University officials just released the report this afternoon. Incoming athletic director David Brandon said the school would be sticking with head coach Rich Rodriguez.

?We view these allegations seriously,? Michigan president Mary Sue Coleman said. "We will make all necessary changes. What we will not do is make excuses.?
Among the allegations:
? From January 2008 through this past September, the program exceeded the permissible limit on the number of coaches by five. The NCAA alleges that five quality control staff members illegally engaged in on- and off-field coaching activities.
? From January 2008 through at least last September, the school permitted football staff members to illegally monitor and conduct voluntary summer workouts and impermissible activities outside the playing season. The NCAA also alleges that U-M required players to participate in summer conditioning for disciplinary purposes, and exceed time limits for countable athletically related activities during and outside the playing season.
? Graduate assistant coach Alex Herron provided ?false and misleading information to the institution and enforcement staff? during the investigation.
? Coach Rodriguez ?failed to promote an atmosphere of compliance within the football program and failed to adequately monitor the duties and activities of quality control staff members, a graduate assistant coach and a student assistant coach, and the time limits for athletically related activities.?
? From January 2008 through at least this past September, the athletics department ?failed to adequately monitor its football program to assure compliance regarding the limitations on the number, duties and activities of countable football coaches and time limits for countable athletically related activities.?
