I am convinced I am not going to get what I want before this season plays out, but here is what I think is the worst case scenario - and it isn't all that bad.
1. Harbaugh will be suspended for two games - likely the next two. Sends the message that the powers that be know what is going on and more is coming. They will have that hanging over their heads while they play out the string. It will also send a message to their incoming class that they need to think twice.
2. During the off season the NCAA will come back and call for the forfeiting of games - perhaps three seasons worth. Since this is competitive advantage I don't see it being vacates. They will also miss the post season for a year or two and maybe some schollie hits.
3. Whatever UM gets out of this season will be all they get for some time. If you look at their depth chart they have starters on the offense alone who use up their eligibility this season (that experience is one reason they are playing so well). If McCarthy leaves they will bring back one sophomore TE. With the transfer rule in place and a post season ban it will be a long time before they are back.
4. The stench will stay with the University for even longer.
Or am I dreaming?
