scUM stands to win a title. Their first outright since the 2nd world war. The Bucks failed to take care of this problem, a sacred burden, and ultimately that's on us.

That said, there was something that crossed my mind last night which hadn't previously. The B1G was not as pro-active and heavy handed in dealing with, arguably, the largest on-field advantage cheating scandal in conference history.

Just taking a moment to look at how this has unfolded now that the damaging events are behind us, I'm almost beginning to view this much in the same mold as this fanbase would view the SEC allowing a team to carry on under the same black cloud. Winning a title, and all that comes with it, trumps all in the eyes of the commissioner(s). The ends justify the means, to put a fine point on it. This even includes, as we now understand, the potential of facing that title being vacated, the wins over-turned and the offending program nuked.

At the end of the day, the history books don't matter to those in the present. To them, to us even, it's a 'we all saw it happen', and make no doubt that scUM will keep their own account of how this all went down as time comes and goes.

I'm torn, because a win would probably be solid for not only the conference, but B1G country as a whole. The last 20 years have really seen setbacks, even if they are optics wise, at the quality of Midwestern football. Which sucks because I'm still old enough to (barely) remember how we didn't hear the 'SEC' chant after every mid tier program from that conference felt the need to dick ride the top programs when they squeak out wins against lesser opponents.

Either way, I find it almost tragically poetic that, after one of the worst bowl seasons in my lifetime, *ichigan stands poised to send us off into the greatest shift in CFB history; one that I believe, coupled with run-away NIL measures, a de-facto 'free agency', the devaluation of pageantry, history, rivalry, pride, has all but crushed the soul of the sport which helped bind so many of us to it for years.

Deep down, I suppose I am pulling for Udbub. At the end of the day, nobody should like to see cheaters go unscathed and continue to win.

They should have suspended - permanently barred more like - the OC and DC imo. And i said the same thing before they went after Harbaugh.

We have countless tape showing those 2 taking direction from Stalions. There is no way they didn't know.

Unemployed? Check.

Deeply underwater on house he couldn't afford in the first place? Check.

Flying to LA for the Rose Bowl with what looks to be pretty damned nice seats? Absolutely.

Don't tell me this lunatic hasn't been paid off nicely for his silence.

If they used Vegas -- and why wouldn't they -- there's probably a lot of money in his accounts.

Didn't he pay off 2 houses for his parents within days of the Corum LLC?

I think it was a mixture. AI is super disruptive, and there probably needs to be rules in place to address it in competitive sports.

It's probably been used in the NFL for a while, is something that maybe Mike McDonald brought to Scum from his time in the NFL and it has been heavily used there. Probably why Bama also hired Helow, to see how Scum does it.

If it isn't regulated, OSU better get on it.

There's 2 things going on here. Similar to how the Astros weren't just banging trash can lids.

So one hand, we have Stalions on the sideline with his laminated sheets and providing live feedback that even the Defense knows -- like pass/run.
There's reams and reams and reams of evidence for this.

On the other, there's his Software Engineer roommate who is on one of the LLCs and the alleged theft of 50 hours tape from Ohio State practices, and the similar reaction of Alabama to tape.
These hint at getting the all22 footage and doing what ive thought about before - but with the full season of tape.
Predicting playcalls from alignments, personnel, tendencies, and context (down/distance/time/field position).
It's illegal to do this live, but ive long suspected it would be possible to draw up game plans and sort of "notes" for the box guys to use during the game.
But there are inklings that Michigan has been doing this live.
We just have rumors for now... but the rumors are coming from different programs and angles.

I don't think it matters. The NCAA and BIG are going to do their worst. Within the confines of their own bylaws and regulations. This shit is not going away. When the allegations come out and all the evidence is on the table the media will do what they do. Write salacious stories to drive clicks. This is going to go down as the biggest cheating scandal in college football and those cocksuckers are going to wear a scarlet C on their chest till they die .....


Is it weird that I have an overriding desire to waterboard Stallions and get a confession ?

I dont want a confession. I want an account. How far did it go, what exactly were they all doing. Who knew when. Who facilitated paying his video stooges.

I want the Fall of the House of Usher.

And Corum has yet to file a complaint with the state of Wyoming. Also, isn't it odd that "a low level analyst that nobody knew" is allowed to sit at the 50 yard line with a bunch of former players after violating a star player's trust and illegally putting his name on an LLC? You'd think he'd pretty much be persona-non-grata. Funny how they seemed to welcome him.

Congratulations to the cheaters.
Although, I should probably stop calling them that. The NCAA won't do a damn thing to punish them.
Not a damn thing.

Yes, I said this a while ago. Many times. People sitting around waiting for the magic ban hammer to drop are going to be bitterly disappointed. Watch.
