Thanks. and the ignore list grows.
Yeah, I’ve had to put a few of the new pricks on ignore.

Hey folks - good thing the NCAA has been consistent with this punishment, otherwise I’d be pretty darn upset….
And yet they had no problem penalizing our players in 2012. 10 plus years after the fact who were in elementary school at the time of the so called coverup. Just amazing.
Lol what are you talking about?
The fact anyone ever thought I was a Michigan fan is laughable.
If I was trying to hide I wouldn't have picked this username.
Some people, like you, whomever you are, don't actually comprehend the sport and allow bias to dictate every post you make
It's cute that I've been called a Michigan and an Ohio State fan in this thread. That contradiction just proves how wrong you are. But guessing you're typically wrong in life.
No problem. It's going to get far worse before it gets betterThanks. and the ignore list grows.
. His grift is so obvious and stupid ..he will constantly refer to Penn State as "we" and "us" with the completely retarded idea that someone somehow will equate his wording into believing he is an actual Penn State sports fan. He's already started it with about 3 or 4 posts using "we" reference to Penn State.. as if he was somehow involved in anything to do with the program. I would say ban him immediately but you guys really should sit back and watch as he exposes himself one arrogant/constipated/fake post at a time. We used to call him "Hando on his commando"

As long as they are handing out bags of cash to recruits and transfers, this won’t mean much of anything to their recruiting and success.
This is the equivalent of the Pats paying a fine and having to destroy the tapes when caught cheating (the first time) by the NFL. It doesn’t deter the cheating whatsoever.
Essentially, um bought a NATTY.
A joke penalty from a joke irrelevant organization who was neutered a long time ago - time for everyone to cheat and just pay a few bucks when and if you get caught.
now tell us who the qb's were on those UM teams from 2015-2020...if qb is the most important position on the field, it's easy to understand how UM became much better with a first round qb as opposed to the litany of failures that preceded..also harbaugh fired half the staff and installed the ravens defense..that's the "data" you should consider interesting..
The press release says coaches involved in sign stealing were charged with 6 Level One violations. Stop the BS.

Perfect gif, ffs.
Worthy every penny to cheat and win a Natty, I'm sure for most UM fans.

The emoji clown makes up another nic.... Ivan Pudski. Seems to be Wastecoast.
They’ve already saved money the last couple years with more as the head coach, he’s not being paid as much as they would’ve had to pay a real coach. Plus as far as recording goes, they’re not gonna stop contact with anybody. They really think they’re gonna flip the defensive lineman from Saint Francis in Baltimore, lots of shadiness there.
Let's not forget the Commissioner pleading that UM had been punished enough. Money makes the world go round, Networks didn't want them sanctioned further. Cheat, destroy the evidence and refuse to cooperate. This all occurred at a program already on probation. Every compliance department in America, just became obsolete.
Anybody who cares about any of this is imagining that there are ethical standards associated with what we laughingly call "college" football. Wake up.

Obviously the NCAA didn’t give a royal rat’s you know what about current Penn State players when they imposed Draconian punishment against PSU for conduct over which Emmert admitted the NCAA had no jurisdiction when he announced the sanctions (“the NCAA board has authorized us to go outside the rules to punish”). While the NCAA’s authority to impose meaningful punishment beforehand the unjust punishment imposed against Penn State was the final straw.
The Paternos beat them down, the NCAA paid them an undisclosed sum. Emmett stated that there would never be a punishment like that ever again, knowing they screwed up.
I apologized you are saying the NCAA paid the Paterno family an undisclosed amount of money? I clearly do not recall that occurring , but living in State College at those times was painful and my memory is selective.
Bingo. Almost every big time football program would trade $30M for a natty. That's nothing a few rich boosters wouldn't pay to see their favorite program win. The message from the NCAA here (aside from showing they are officially a toothless organization) is that you might as well start cheating, since the repercussions are minimal while the upside potential is significant.
The quotes and findings in this report are quite amazing, yet the punishment does not match at all. Confirmation of 50+ illegal instances of advance scouting. Confirmation that Stalions was on the sideline at CMU. Statements that UM had a culture of non compliance and actively viewed their compliance department department as a thorn in their side. An NCAA COI statement that despite UM's insistence to the contrary, advance scouting likely resulted in a "significant competitive advantage." Repeat offenses for UM, Harbaugh and Moore. "Michigan Men" through and through.
I hope it never happens at PSU. It isn’t worth it. Integrity matters. Of course, I’m stupid.
Except that the well-heeled boosters got their championship for free, so why step up now and pay the fine?
No. You tell me. I merely presented you with objective data AGAINST THE SPREAD and you supplied the subjective interpretation
Not to dredge up past horrors, but when Penn State got in trouble, the NCAA initially vacated like a decade worth of wins, even though the issue had nothing to do with cheating, and was literally the actions of one guy who happened to work for the program.
Michigan literally cheated. They essentially sat down and said, "What can we do to break the rules and give ourselves an edge?"
It seems to me that cheating = vacated wins. If we're playing poker, and you're stuffing aces up your sleeve, and I catch you, you do not get to keep my money.
What is the angle on this that I'm not seeing?

Cherry on top is Michigan appealing in part because of lack of evidence. You know - the stuff they destroyed when they got caught with their hand in the cookie jar? Can’t make it up.
At some point you need to heal. Unfortunately for some of our fan base, they will never heal. Personally I am through, comparing everything to the injustice of the sanctions and the indignity to the Paterno family. The NCAA is dead, Michigan walked, we got screwed, Joe's legacy was unfairly tarnished, we will never get over it, and idiots will play the Sandusky card against us.... until the Sun no longer rises.
Screw it. Let's go win a National Championship this year and pray that the west side bleachers don't collapse during home games.

Most of us can say that players are being paid considerable sums of money and therefore what was once "college" football is now minor league football. If we acknowledge that this is indeed professional sports.....it's easier to digest the results of this issue. MLB did not strip the Houston Astros of the World Championship. The organization was fined 5 million and the manager and I believe the GM were suspended 1 season?
Also loss of 2 draft choices. Ultimately, Alex Cora, the bench coach was suspended as well.
Reducing scholarships is no longer a penalty, as schools can skirt that with NIL or whatever.
I guess the NCAA just followed the NFL, MLB and professional model for punishment. To some degree it makes sense. I think a lesser fine with a 2 year post season ban would have been perfect.
As PSU fans we will always feel the injustice of 2011-12. To everyone else in the world, I guess that ship has long sailed.
