How does an institution that took in over $300 million in state tax money last year not have to make this report public?

The comical contrast by the media when it comes to Tat Gate and scUMs cheating is pretty disgusting
A lot of the narrative was that Ohio State should get some form of death penalty. Meanwhile when it comes to scUMs cheating it has mostly been laughed off as "no big deal" and they constantly go out of their way not to talk about it as much as possible and only fluff up Michigan.

There was no settlement for Tatgate. The more aggressive they were the more attention they got.
There was clearly a settlement with Warde and the school is holding up their end by having the writers do the fluff pieces. They can pay for that or threaten access over that or just rely on sportswriters laziness and hand them the story to be published as written.
It’s just different economics. Not a plot.

That might be true now. But at the start after the cheating scandal first hit, I think you could argue there was a collective effort by the sports media to avoid talking about it at almost all costs. They few moments they did discuss it, it was mostly just laughed off as "not a big deal"

I'm guessing this is the type of "allowed negative press" we are going to get
It'll get buried quick and never be seen again. It already is pretty much, you got to scroll down a bit on ESPNs home page to even see it.

Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
Just sayin': The Jenner & Block investigation was a total joke; the results were determined even before they stated, i.e. scUM has no "widespread problems". Needless to say, Jenner & Block does not have any subpoena power for their investigation. Nobody was forced to respond and those that did weren't under oath. I'm betting that key people like Conner Stalions, Matt Weiss, and Jim Harbaugh, etc. were never even contacted; and if they were, none of them returned their calls. The law firm got a very nice $12M payday and scUM got exactly what they wanted:
1) they can say it was thoroughly/honestly/fairly investigated (even though it wasn't) and
2) there were no widespread problems were found ........
