I mean not playing the rest of the season and pulling a Bosa/JSN.Johnson is definitely a top 10 pick, he's gone.

Loveland appears to be no better than a late 1st round pick. The 2025 scUM team is going to be even more shitty than the current scUM team and likely to be banned from postseason play too (if that even matters as they may not even have a winning record). The only way he might consider staying is if they give him a monster NIL contract and even scUM is not stupid enough to throw that much money on the Titanic right before it sinks. He's gone too.Colston Loveland Draft Profile 2025 | NFL Mock Draft Database

It also exposes their bad recruiting. It took years to get their full strength last year, when other teams were turning over talent.

And it's like they have no idea what kind of plays are coming at them this year. It's just so damn unfair.

I love the first reply to her "We aren't Michigan State, we have a standard to uphold!"
What standard? Since when? Winning only 5 bowl games since 2000 without cheating? Winning zero Big Ten titles in the 15 years between 2005-2020 before the cheating started? That's the standard at Michigan. Fielding Yost has been in Hell for decades and he's not coming up to save the program.
And I thinking about it the other day, those 15 years are key to what happened to Connor Staliona amd Michigan.
Connor Stalions was the son of proud Michigan alumni. But he was born too late. When Connor was 5 years old, the age where the human brain can omewhat fleetingly hold on to memories long term, Jim Tressel took over at Ohio State. In Kindergarten the Buckeyes won a National Championship. Two years later he would see Michigan win the Big Ten...but lose to Texas in the Rose Bowl.
And that would be Michigan's last triumphant moment that Connor witnesses for a long time He is 8 years old.
The following season would begin an absolutely epic run of Jim Tressel demolishing the Big Ten, winning 5 Big Ten titles in 7 years, going 74-15 over that time span and undefeated against Michigan. When the Tressel era ends, Connor is 14.
Connor was finally able to see Michigan defeat Ohio State for a 2nd time after Tressel is uphurled by the Tattoo-gate saga. Buckeye legend Luke Fickell jumps on the grenade to save the program and their recruitiny class and takes over as head coach in 2011, and Michigan barely beats the Buckeyes 40-36. Connor Stalions is a Freshman in high-school and has seen the Wolverines win The Game for only the second time.
That victory must have given him hope. "See, the Buckeyes were cheating this whole time! Now that Jim Tressel isn't breaking the rules, Michigan finally beats Ohio State! We are on equal ground now and Michigan is going to beat the Buckeyes and be favorites to win the Big Ten every year!"
But little did he know his nightmare was far from over. Urban Meyer takes over the Ohio State program, wins the Big Ten three times, the first ever Playoff National Championship and most importantly, goes on a 7-0 against Michigan.
The glimmer of hope in 2011 followed by the Urban era was the breaking point. In 2014, when Ohio State wins the National Championship, Connor's adult life begins. He joins the military to gain leadership skills and enters the Navy Academy with the sole purpose of working in college football and eventually taking over the Michigan program in order to beat Ohio State.
Jim Tressel and Urban Meyer so thoroughly demolished Michigan over Connor's 15 most formative years that he dedicated his life to beating Ohio State. Michigan's coaching hires and stupid decisions all around were so bad that he realized if they were never going to beat Ohio State unless he moved to Ann Arbor and made it happen himself. The guy was living out of his car as a volunteer to entrench himself into the program to try to find a way to make it happen.

Except JSN tried to play and re-injured himself and Bosa's injury was much worse than what was reported, but go on.....

Not just bad recruiting, but whiffing or not being nearly as active in the Portal. That NC last year(minus the cheating) had a lot to do with the massive influx of older players from the Portal as well.

No mention of how many backflips.....which I think is because that'd be like reporting on the sky being blue. He definitely did at least one backflip.

Not really my point. Just saying that along with mentally and emotionally giving up, if Johnson and Loveland are playing through malingering injuries for the sake of keeping the train running, they may re-think it.
It may have come off as a slam on JSN and Bosa, but it wasn't. You said it, JSN tried to play and re-injured himself. After a while, protecting themselves is important.

Returned from Seattle - Who else had fun? | mgoblog
Returned today. Apart from most of the game itself, it really was a great time. Highly recommend a visit to the city. Tons of different thing to do, great food, and navigable public transit. Husky stadium is an incredible venue.
First, I love these stories. The guy who posted the story is a fan of the cheaters. He can't possibly be lying or embellishing the truth at all, right? We have to take his story at face value. 100% true.
It's be said here a billion times (probably): if knowing the play isn't helpful, then why do the teams have codes and signals?
I'm not going to do anything. But I'm still holding out hope that the NCAA is going to do something.
Reminds me of the Houston Astros winning a World Series. We all just remember the winner, right? Or is it more of the fact that they cheated to win it? I mean, as someone who isn't a fan of MLB at all, I can tell you that the Houston Astros cheated to win a World Series. I can't tell you any of the previous 5 winners, or any of the following 5 winners, except the Cubs beat the Indians in about 2016? 2017? somewhere in there.
