From the article referenced:

Mauti and I shared the stories we'd heard about coaches channeling money through churches, a practice that few Southern politicians or reporters would dare investigate; offering jobs to the parents in the city or county, not the school; giving recruits credit cards in someone else's name, or cases of casino chips to cash in; and two relatively new tricks, having a booster buy the family's home for far more than market value, and telling players to take their beat-up junkers into a Mercedes dealership, where they receive a high-end "loaner car" while they wait for a replacement part -- which could take years, it turns out.

I love how they had to add that qualifier at the end, since that's been one of Jimbo's favorite tactics..... Cuz, you know, working for the school is totally legit, whereas working for the city or county is super-shady.....

edit: BN27 beat me to it....

But he hears far more than that since Michigan and the programs that pay players occasionally battle for the same recruits, such as Rashan Gary. In this cynical age it's stunning that Michigan can win some of those recruiting wars, but generally only when the parents want something more lasting for their son than a hand-out.

It seems like a time to bow our heads in prayer and thank God for St Bill Martin. Long may the memories of his halo shine!

Same guy that came out with a book glorifying his own role in getting Harbaugh to sign on the line which is dotted.

You cant make up their level of arrogance.
And of course he commiserates with Paterno cult member about how everyone else is evil... fuckin clueless.

As for the co-division championship, it seems like since 2011, it became really simple: did you go to the B1G championship game? No? You didn’t win shit.

Teams that can say they’ve won a division since 2011:

Wisconsin (5)
Ohio State (4)
Michigan State (3)
Northwestern (1)
Penn State (1)
Iowa (1)
Nebraska (1)

Teams that have won exactly dick:

Michigan
Minnesota
Rutgers
Indiana
Illinois
Purdue
Maryland
