I do not disagree here, I am merely positing what UMs defense will be, which will be put the onus of proof on the NCAA while UM digs their heels in and does not cooperate.

We all have lived through this as Buckeye fans. The worst possible outcomes seem to arise from cooperating with the NCAA. It’s been proven time and time again, the NCAA does not have the power of subpoena. Deny. Deny. Deny.

Ohio State has lost two head coaches to FOIA requests in the past 14 years. Who at UM goes against the Kremlin party line?
Need a former player to come out and say “oh yeah, we were stealing signs and it was being coached to us during the week of prep”

But I doubt we get that. It would make that player’s film worthless.

I’m of the opinion that I hope Xichigan digs in and fights to retain Harbaugh. He’s cancerous to their program and with lower probability their cheating will actually land, he’s back to being an overpaid and underachieving goof. Recruiting will be harder so they’ll be at a talent deficit. Lastly, the whole world will know what they did and that Xichigan didn’t act with integrity. Tainted program rotting from the inside…

I do not want their upcoming schedule forfeited as we do not want to be cheated out of another version of the game. This year’s edition should break the internet with buildup and viewership. Spanking them is the first step in serving justice and then the NCAA can act, not act, doesn’t really matter. They can keep their tainted W’s but we all know.

From r/CFB

Here is a public fact, look it up. Google it and also go search the Wyoming state government business entity registration website. Connor Stalions registered a business called Home Essentials Distribution LLC on March 22, 2022 to an Ann Arbor address. Blake Corum registered a business in Wyoming on March 28, 2022 called BC2 Housing LLC registered to the same Ann Arbor Home Address. No idea if relevant to anything. But Blake Corum and Stalions formed businesses together in March 2022 registered to the same address. Spread the word.

Looking at the all the data from last night, I think a couple things are clear.

The NCAA and the Big 10 have significantly more information than is publicly know. That could come from a variety of sources such as former employees that have insight into the sign stealing (Gattis), peripheral players (CMU coach staff), the "investigative firm" having way more information than what was leaked to the Washington Post and/or anyone that has some insight that dislikes Harbaugh (a cohort that in growing exponentially). When the investigation is complete, I think the evidence will be massive.

I also think that Pettiti and the Big 10 felt they were giving Michigan an off ramp. They thought if they showed the evidence available now, Michigan would see the advantages of a Harbaugh suspension during some portion of the remaining regular season. Those advantages would be reduced impact on existing players (no post season ban, still NC possibilities) and by self imposing, any additional information on the details of scandal would be greatly reduced to revelations by the news media. For the Big 10, it would overt open warfare between their members, mitigate partially the competitive advantage Michigan enjoyed and they could wait on the NCAA to wack Michigan in the off season to complete the process. Understand, I am not endorsing the Big 10's thinking. I am ready to buy the salt for the plowing under of Michigan stadium. I just laying out a plausible explanation of their thinking.

It is also reported that the Big 10 brought some very big sticks with the carrots they offered. It sounds like a post season ban is among them.

I think the Commissioner wanted TTUN to suspend Harbaugh for two games and then they would also suspend him for two games, thus removing him from the last four games of the season.
