When they issued the NOA back in August, Hairball couldn't keep his mouth shut and the NCAA promptly slapped him with a 4 yr show cause and 1 yr suspension, should he try to return to CFB in the next 4 yrs.

This isn't going to be the nothing-burger the dfbia believes.

What are the odds that several current and former players were gambling on their games and if so, would this be an NCAA violation? It seems like it should be, and given their rallying cry of "Bet!" it just seems to be perfectly on-brand for them to openly gloat about breaking the rules.

edit - I found this:

Who is not allowed to bet on College Football?​

While many fans can legally bet on college football, certain individuals are prohibited from doing so, regardless of age or location. This prohibition primarily applies to those directly involved in the sport, such as players, coaches, team staff and game officials. The NCAA has strict rules against gambling for anyone affiliated with college sports, and violations can result in severe penalties, including suspensions, fines and even permanent bans from the sport. This is also why many states ban betting on in-state programs.

Additionally, university staff, athletic department employees and individuals with access to insider information are also barred from betting on college sports. These rules are in place to preserve the integrity of the game and to prevent conflicts of interest that could compromise the outcome of a match.

I've speculated on this, and that is clearly why the B1G brought in Vegas' go to firm right in the beginning. Vegas wasn't going to fuck around, and they have none of the ncaa's limitations and timeframes to worry about. That's why I don't think anything's happening on this front. I'm not saying that tcun players and coaches weren't betting, but I am saying that if there was a trail, Vegas would have already sniffed it out.

Also, this isn't just players gambling on sports. It's about players gambling on sports with an inside knowledge that the line was compromised. No way does Vegas slow play that. If they were ripping off the casinos though, I just wish these guys were still running Las Vegas.

I'd almost rather that we ram it down their throat for 300 yards rushing and win like 28-3 instead of airing it out to try to hang 50+ that way they can take that "soft" bullshit and cram it deep up their own ass.

With the coward at CB, I'd like to Smith go for 150 and 4 just so I could see how tdfbia rationalizes his stubbed toe.

He ALWAYS bites on the screen and goes to jump it, that's how he got his 2 pick 6s getting lucky on those. i'd love to say a fake screen look then Smith takes off up field wide open instead while he looks completely stupid trying to jump a screen pass that never actually happened.

The team really does mirror the fan base

Warren is now a legit B1G QB

The running game is back to elite!!

all the laughs

Warren still averaged just 5.6 YPA, which is actually below his season average of 5.9 YPA, which is good for 124th in the country. I believe he completed ONE pass that traveled over 10 yards in the air. Northwestern could not defend a bunch of dink and dunks and screen plays that was the recipe for his "success"

1000%. That video that Thump posted showed a bunch of their staged fake tough guy moves. Barking in the tunnel, intentionally bumping into players walking up the ramp, the Marcus Hall stuff. All of it staged. All of it fake. All of it while they were getting beat year after year after year after year after year after year after year after year after year.....

At what point, if you're the leader of the team, do you tell whoever it is that's instructing you to "go out there and crowd around the kick returner and try to start a fight" to shut the fuck up with these dumbshit wannabe toughguy plans and just focus on winning. The answer....never. Because it's institutionalized.
