Last night's posts apparently touched a nerve, so what the hell?
"Nobody we talked to saw this coming. The fact that the NCAA leaked to a couple of Bucknut bloggers tells you everything you need to know about this 'investigation.'" -near future Chris Balas, probably
The sanctions are coming down - very soon - and these people will continue melting down.
They'll make fun of my (gorgeous, I might add) hair, they'll call me a nerd. They'll email me pictures of my house and text me weird things about my family. It won't change their outcome.
Boob Salsa et al will act shocked, and they'll soothe the masses with cries of "OVERREACH!" and promises to fight back. It won't change their outcome.
Uncle T will flail about, pissing wild conspiracy theories into the wind. His delusions could put the Day family and others back into real danger. His "binders" will be as empty as his intellect. It won't change their outcome.
Warde will buy as much time as possible - at least as long as his keycard works - bloviating about "examining options" and "unfair practices." It won't change their outcome.
They'll appeal, and might be granted a temporary stay of enforcement for some sanctions. It won't change their outcome, but it could push their clock back even further.
For our maize and blue counterparts who lurk here at the grownup's table: The sanctions are coming very, very soon.
Strip out every bit of fandom, homerism, and all of our reporting. Factually speaking:
- The charges against the university, former coaches, and the current head coach are serious.
- The university did not self report violations. Not only did they fail to cooperate, multiple staffers - including your current head coach - actively destroyed evidence or otherwise hindered the investigation.
- There is contemporaneous reporting that on the day NCAA enforcement staff notified UM that they would be on campus for interviews, Harbaugh sent his coaches out on the road to recruit.
- They thumbed their noses as the process and publicly ridiculed investigators throughout.
- The NCAA received a full investigative file from a UM whistleblower, giftwrapped and ready to go.
- The scheme, for which enforcement staff received planning documents, refined assets, ticket transactions, and activity logs, impacted the outcome of games.
- Many aspects of "the framework" sit squarely within the core penalties for the aggravated charges UM et al are facing.
- UM added a 13th game to next season, in Germany, against a shitty MAC school?
- You're screwed.
- Go Bucks.

Google AI: Under normal circumstances, Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) teams are allowed a maximum of 12 regular season games.
However, there's a specific exception that allows for a 13th regular season game:
  • The Hawaii Exemption: Any FBS team that schedules and plays a game in Hawaii (or Alaska or Puerto Rico, though Hawaii is the practical application) is allowed to schedule an extra, 13th regular season game.
This "Hawaii exemption" was created to help offset the increased travel costs associated with playing in Hawaii, both for the visiting team and for the University of Hawaii itself when scheduling games.

Just sayin': I think premierdrum is incorrect on this one. A 13th game is only allowed if you go to Hawaii and play the Rainbow Warriors. If scUM plays a shitty MAC school game in Germany in 2026 it will count as one their 12 allowed regular season games.

I hear you. That was my take all along. But it would appear CS already had MSU signals. Was he somehow communicating with CMU coaches during the game ? I don't know. What I do know is that there are going to be some fun discoveries with the CMU NOA. There's a reason why the "shark fucker" isn't the head coach anymore. It's believed that CMU and UM tried to cover up as much as they could and lied to the NCAA. Unfortunately for them the NCAA already had receipts and they walked into a pile of shit. That's around the time that the NCAA amended the NOA for SCUM.

HAMMER TIME !!!

If he was communicating with the CMU coaches, they did a shit job using the info. They lost that game 7-31. Although they were up 7-3 late into the 2nd quarter. Maybe he stopped helping after a certain point.

I think you're right.
When teams play in Ireland (I think GT played FSU last year, and Notre Dame played there once or twice.... maybe Penn State, too?), have they gotten a 13th game? I'm pretty sure they haven't.

oh, no doubt. All 100% spot on.

It just doesn't jive with Cpl Klinger and his "I'm so fucking smart I can decipher your signals in game and that isn't cheating" bullshit defense.

Stalions' public projection is like this is me (skip to the 32 second mark since my effort to start it there didn''t take)!



The reality is multiple people scouting games, hacking computers, and tons of notebooks, etc.

It certainly is a convoluted situation. I just think there way more to it then some random coach helping CS get on the sideline.

I don't. He wanted/needed to know if the signals he already had for MSU still worked. He knew some people that were playing MSU week 1. Make a phone call, ask for a favor, pack your video recording sunglasses.
