2025 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments - NCAA: no wins taken away, no postseason ban

Isn't he the one under investigation by the NBA for paying Kawhi for a no-show marketing gig to circumvent the cap? Im sure he wouldn't skirt NCAA rules. Don't want to have to suspend someone for 2 games of their choosing that dont matter

Nah, that's Steve Ballmer, another douchebage billionaire

Top end guys are already getting enough NIL to stay another year.

I know, but I'm talking about dropping $300 million or something to have only top end guys that are making more than NFL rookie contracts across the board.

At this point, the entire scUM offense is Justice Haynes. And some are even calling an upset to Nebraska. The 3 game stretch of USC, Washington and Little Brother will be very telling to their season. And also to Underwood's development.

Take away the 75 yard TD run against OU and Haynes has 18 carries for 50 yards. If you can stop the long runs from happening their run game is very underwhelming

I just don't see it. Nebraska, USC, and Sparty aren't the teams we think of - Dr. Tom Osborne, John McKay, and Duffy Daugherty level teams - when we see those names on a schedule. Then again, I don't exactly see Schembechler-level talent on the Michigan sidelines.

USC definitely has more talent than scUM.

Corn and Sparty it's closer to equal. I'm not sure Sparty will pull it off but Corn is @ Corn and scUM has a lame duck interim coach. Corn is winning that game

That's an absurd way to look at teams. All 3 should beat this garbage ass Michigan team.

This scUM team has shown nothing. Maybe if they beat the breaks off of New Mexico and then played a actual real close game with Oklahoma I could see making that argument.

Instead New Mexico had the ball near midfield only down 10 in the 4th quarter. And the Oklahoma game was nowhere near as close as the score. OU made a handful of mistakes, mostly self inflicted ,that kept scUM from getting blown out

Be that as it may, it seems like Larry Ellison increasing his net worth by $100 billion overnight is an issue that may significantly affect college football. If he wants to treat the Michigan football team as his pet project going forward (or his wife after that old man passes), a drop in the bucket to Ellison would single-handedly create a payroll with which no other college football team could compete.

Just sayin': It could very well be a future issue. Larry Ellison the richest man in the world is 81 years old. His current and 6th wife (i.e. Jolin Zhu) who he married in 2023 is the avid scUM fan and she is only 47 years old. Considering Ellison's marriage history:

Adda Quinn (m. 1967; div. 1974)
Nancy Wheeler Jenkins (m. 1977; div. 1978)
Barbara Boothe (m. 1983; div. 1986)
Melanie Craft (m. 2003; div. 2010)
Nikita Kahn (m. 2010; div. 2020)
Jolin (Keren) Zhu (m. 2023)

With a man of Ellison's wealth and marriage history; I'll say the current wife signed an "ironclad" prenuptial agreement. She'll get something; but I'm guessing that the bulk of his estate will probably go to his 2 children (i.e. David and Megan) that he had with Barbara Boothe.
