Any NCAA charges have a 90-day timeframe for a school to respond, so even NCAA charges brought tomorrow would have the college playoff finished before TTUN would need to respond to them.
I stated this morning that the solution is for the B1G to notify TTUN in the near future that they have forfeited the 4 conference games they played this season prior to Sparty. The 4 losses would prevent them from reaching the B1G CCG, and presumably the CFP Committee would not rank TTUN anywhere near the top 4. So they wouldn’t be able to win anything meaningful that very likely would be stripped from them later.
The remaining games could still be played, and the TV ratings will still be solid, due to the amount of publicity, the curiosity aspect of how good will they be without the stolen signals, and the anticipation of watching the holier-than-thou Vulvarines be defeated by Penn State and tOSU and get their comeuppance on the field.
I’m glad that new B1G Commissioner Petitti is the guy that can make this decision after consulting with the ADs and the school Presidents/Chancellors. I think Kevin Warren would spend a lot of time talking about nothing and then do very little.
What happens for the 2021 and 2022 seasons can wait until the NCAA finishes their process. It doesn’t matter that much to me when the coaching staff members receive their penalties.
