IMO it wasn’t hard.

3 years ago, Connor Stalions (and crew) took a few games they probably would’ve otherwise lost. Then 2 years ago they had a pretty good team and again Stalions got them a game or two they should’ve lost. However, this year finally a good team returned and that Connor bump was moot because they were actually an old good team.

I've said this before. They didn't need Stalions this year, but they needed him the previous two years to create the foundation without which this year NEVER happens.

And that is the exact point that talking heads are intentionally covering up. Ohio State administrators better be shouting it from the rooftops

What talking heads? ESPN? I doubt it.
ORD made the point a few weeks ago - the good thing about losing ESPN as a partner means that they have nothing to lose, and everything to gain, if M*ch*gan gets punished. They shouldn't want to cover this up. If anything, there should be allegations from "sources who want to remain confidential" that M*ch*gan tells its players to go into orphanages and upper-decker their toilets.

True, but I'm increasingly coming around to the notion that questioning the integrity of the on-field product is just some Rubicon that they will not cross, either psychologically by the talking heads or from a a business decision standpoint by the executives. I don't expect some empty headed hairdo like Herbstreit to address the larger issues, but there are still some there that are capable of it, and I'm not really hearing anything about it from them. Perhaps, the NCAA will force their hand, but they're clearly not leading the charge that way they did against us in 2011.

Don't forget COVID gave them all extra eligibility as well, even if some of them wanted to come back, under normal circumstances, they wouldn't be able to.

The point is that they wouldn’t have come back if the cheating had not occurred

Would their NIL collections have been sufficient to keep guys around for their extra year if they’d had a half dozen or more losses in the previous two years?

This is a rhetorical question. Or at least it should be. There is only one correct answer. That answer is not “maybe”. It’s not “unlikely”. The correct answer is simply “no”

Life is not that binary. Yes he cheated at TTUN, but he still made the 49ers a good football team, and he had Stanford playing good football as well (not sure if he cheated there though).

The fuck it isn't. Life is binary and either cheating or not cheating is the definitely made up of 1s and 0s, yes and no, right and wrong.

Fuck Harbaugh and ANYONE who thinks what he accomplished at scUM makes him a "good football coach". His time at Stanford was playing 1980s offense against weak ass PAC-12 teams when the PAC-12 was seriously down by the way.

So to you the GOAT coach of the NFL actually isn't the GOAT ? Also, I never included what he's done at TTUN in my original response, in fact I meant to talk about the NFL and why his assistants followed him there, I probably wasn't clear enough and I apologize for that. I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on the binary thing though.

Don Shula has been dead for 4 years. Vince Lombardi has been dead for over 50. Belicheck is also a cheater. Who are you referring to here?
