Has nothing to do with us winning or losing to them. Has everything to do with them not profiting off their cheating.

Has everything to do with never wanting even the smallest bit of success for those whiny, cock-sucking, condescending, scUM-of-the-earth, holier-than-thou, mother-fucking cheating asshole pricks.
Yep. All those people who have grown up only knowing the Buckeyes success the last two decades are finding out what us older folks really mean when we say "never take the boot off their necks" and UTQTFS. Even after the 2021 game those arrogant fucksticks were acting like the last twenty years never happened and it's only gotten worse. Just remind one of them that Harbaugh STILL has a losing record against OSU and watch what happens.

Wrong glass, Sir.
The dfbia keeps clinging to the "he's working on an extension with Ono right now." Of course he is, but he's also not going to sign it until all the NFL doors have been slammed in his face. From all the reports, jock-sniffer has the papers ready, so what's the delay? Can they really be this stupid? Never mind.

Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
Jim Harbaugh popped again for alleged cheating. It's time to drop the self-righteous act.
Jim Harbaugh is in a snit with the NCAA over potential rules violations that were petty, avoidable and ultimately stupid if they indeed took place.www.usatoday.comJim Harbaugh popped again for alleged cheating. It's time to drop the self-righteous act.
For the second time this year, Michigan's Jim Harbaugh is in a snit with the NCAA for potential rules violations that were petty, avoidable and ultimately quite stupid if they indeed took place.
Back in the good old days, when Jim Harbaugh was provoking someone in college football on a near-daily basis, nothing could get him rolling on social media faster than an allegation of cheating.
“If the Georgia coach is implying any intent on our part to break rules, he is barking up the wrong tree,” Harbaugh tweeted on Feb. 24, 2016, after Kirby Smart suggested the NCAA would be forced to step in after Michigan held spring practice at IMG Academy.
The following year, when ESPN’s Paul Finebaum suggested that Michigan hiring the father of a top recruit to his coaching staff was unsavory (albeit allowed), Harbaugh fired back with a Tweet calling him “Pete Finebaum, the unabashed SEC water carrier.”
But when you play in the gray area of the NCAA rulebook while walking around like you’ve just been blessed by the Pope, you tend to make a lot of enemies.
And now that Michigan is residing near the top of college football again, all the fangs are coming out.
For the second time this year, Harbaugh is in the middle of a snit with the NCAA over potential rules violations that were petty, completely avoidable and ultimately quite stupid if they indeed took place.
Harbaugh served a self-imposed three-game suspension at the beginning of this season for misleading or not cooperating with NCAA investigators during an investigation into impermissible contact with recruits and coaching activities during the COVID-19 dead period.
Now, in a story reported first Thursday by Yahoo! Sports and confirmed by the Big Ten, Michigan is under another inquiry for in-person scouting of opponents, which has been against the rules for nearly 30 years and is quite unnecessary these days, unless the goal is to glean extra information about an opponent's play-calls that teams often try to disguise on the sideline.

Michigan football’s latest NCAA investigation turns the tables on Jim Harbaugh’s old ‘cheaters’ accusation: Jimmy Watkins
Jim Harbaugh's latest alleged offense is once again less about the offense than the offender. Michigan has been posturing itself on a moral high ground that the NCAA doesn't think exists.www.cleveland.com
Michigan football’s latest NCAA investigation turns the tables on Jim Harbaugh’s old ‘cheaters’ accusation: Jimmy Watkins
Jim Harbaugh cannot tell a lie or fathom breaking the rules. He knows both happen in the big, scary football world, but he is fighting to keep Michigan virtuous, even if it costs him wins.
At least, that’s the coach’s portrait UM sold in a 2019 book entitled: “Overtime: Jim Harbaugh and the Michigan Wolverines at the crossroads of college football.”
The story details Michigan’s virtuous quest to keep its football program honest and successful, which is no small feat given the obstacles UM employees say they were facing four years ago.
Back in 2019, before Harbaugh claimed any Big Ten championships, College Football Playoff appearances or wins over Ohio State, Michigan’s then-director of recruiting Matt Dudek explained the challenge of recruiting players who met UM’s stringent athletic, academic and cultural standards.
“Name another school that competes with the bluebloods athletically – we’re talking Ohio State, Alabama, Clemson – while competing with the bluebloods academically: Stanford, Northwestern, Princeton,” he said.
Dudek also told Bacon that Michigan knows some schools “don’t operate on the same moral ground,” that Harbaugh demands, and that diverting from Harbaugh’s strict standards was, in Dudek’s words “the fastest way to get fired around here.”
Most notably, when explaining the difference in recruiting spending between Michigan and some SEC schools, Harbaugh himself told Bacon, “(It’s) hard to beat the cheaters.”....
Must be. Because for the second time this year, the NCAA trying to figure out if Harbaugh has broken the rules he once claimed to hold dear. This time, the Big Ten sent notice Thursday that the NCAA was investigating Michigan for scouting games in person and stealing signals.

Another article by the same USA Today writer:
Cheating in sports: Michigan football the latest scandal. Why is playing by rules so hard?
As long as there have been games organized by an a set of rules, there have been people willing to break them to reap what comes with victory.

Cheating in sports: Michigan football the latest scandal. Why is playing by rules so hard?
There was no reason any sports fan should have known the name Connor Stalions. Trim, goateed and often seen wearing a poorly fitted hat, he looked no different than any of a dozen coaching wannabes the public watches each Saturday — yet mostly ignores — on every college football sideline in America.He was a small cog in the vast machine of Michigan football, a program that prides itself on having been the first and only in the history of the sport to win 1,000 games since playing its first in 1879.
But this fall, at a place defined by famous names like Fielding Yost, Bo Schembechler, Desmond Howard, Tom Brady and even President Gerald Ford, there was a simple reason to explain why Stalions — at least for a few weeks — became bigger than all of them in the realm of college football.
He cheated.
As long as there have been games organized by an agreed-upon set of rules, there have been people willing to break them to reap whatever comes with victory — money, fame, or in Stalions' case, the relentless pursuit of career advancement through illicit means. The evidence of it stretches back centuries and continues to fascinate fans, athletes and scholars.
“Cheating in the chariot races was written about in the Iliad,” said Clark Power, a professor of psychology and education at the University of Notre Dame who also directs a non-profit organization that promotes equity and character development in youth sports. “It’s a human-nature problem, in some sense.”
What compels people to cheat in the first place? What about those gray areas of gamesmanship that might not be considered explicit cheating but don't comport with the spirit of the rules? And is truly fair competition possible when so many people are willing to cheat?
"Whatever is inside of you and me, the intensity and challenge of sports will bring it out," said John White, a professor of practical theology who created the Faith & Sports Institute at Baylor University. "Is it bringing out the best version of me or the worst version?"
The revelation that Stalions, an analyst working on a $55,000 per year salary, had created a network of amateur spies to film the sidelines of future Michigan opponents in an elaborate scheme to decode their play calls, rocked the sport this fall.
It sparked an investigation from the NCAA, which prohibits in-person scouting. It cost Stalions his job, as well as Michigan linebackers coach Chris Partridge, who allegedly tried to tamper with evidence once the revelations became public. It forced the Big Ten to suspend head coach Jim Harbaugh for three games, even though there was no evidence Harbaugh sanctioned or even knew of the scheme.

You called it. Legit thought this would wind up like all of the past instances of SCUM going against SEC teams with SCUM getting dominated in the trenches. Pretty much the opposite happened. Bama lucky they even got it to OT with the way their OL and DL were getting handled all night.

It’s astounding how Covid changed the trajectory of this program. Ever since they ducked a 50 point beatdown by OSU everything has gone their way. From a “spirited” practice the next day, to scheming an advanced scouting/cheating system, to using super seniors to build toughnes, experience and now becoming media darlings. It’s all aligned for them the last 3-4 years.
Which says a lot about the evil of that place when it takes a once-a-century mass casuality pandemic to rise from the ashes.
