Michigan under investigation?
- Thread starter Obliviax
- Start date
Couldn't happen to a better program. Though, what is the point in the modern era?
Then Jimma will follow the same path set by Pete Carrol and sprint outta town before the heat gets hot.
Seems to me everything that was illegal is now legal. What could they have done.
Sound like someone contacted a recruit during a covid dead period two years ago. 🤷♂️
OMG I’ll get my pitchfork
By suck I mean suck , I know they’ve been winning but they suck.
How many scholarships will Western Michigan lose?
Did they wear a mask to the sleepover?
Isn't Central Michigan the one who should be worried afer winning in hoops the other might? : )
Probably told to “toughen up” after the sleepover.
A press release from the BIG Ten Conference stated: Any and all fines related to Michigan from the NCAA will be paid out of Penn State's bowl revenue. 
Apparently four "Level-2" violations, which are the equivalent of misdemeanors, and one "Level-1" violation, which is the equivalent of a felony.
Level-2:
-- Too many coaches at practice sessions
-- Meeting with two recruits during Covid dead period
-- Watching player workouts over a video feed
Level-1:
-- Harbaugh "misleading" NCAA investigators about the Level-2 allegations
In the words of the famous old political saying: It's not the crime that will do you in...it's the cover-up.
Sources: Jim Harbaugh, Michigan under NCAA investigation for potential rules violations
A Level I violation could lead to significant recruiting restrictions or even a suspension for a number of games.

I heard someone wiped a booger on their chair in the film room instead of eating it as instructed. Pass it on…

Amazing. And they found this out in such a timely fashion.....after playing in the semi finals of the "final 4!"
And when Mich is losing a ton of talent and will likely not be a playoff contender next season.
They had the permit filled out and everything - it just hadn’t been submitted. Oh wait, that was something else entirely
you're so negative! Just think, if not for their loss to TCU, we would not have heard of this for several more weeks.
Lou Holtz was faster than either of them. He had loads of practice.
Really seems like a lot of procedural items and then just Jimmy telling investigators to pound sand.
This is nothing. it's not like they had a school sanctioned/team sanctioned doctor molesting their student athletes. That is something that would certainly be fully investigated.

When will Neeli and the BoT go after the stolen funds? The fat bag of crap Barron failed.
Things like this cost Adam Brenneman his job at ASU.
Good column here by Dan Wetzel: leave it to Jim Harbaugh to find a way to run afoul of an organization that has become a joke -- who knew the NCAA even existed anymore -- at a time when the sport has virtually turned semi-pro with very little being illegal anymore.
>>Of all the wild situations, self-created feuds, and quirky, if not almost sitcom-like scenarios that Jim Harbaugh has delivered over his nearly 40-year football life as a player and a coach, somehow catching a Level I NCAA violation when there is hardly an NCAA remaining, let alone any NCAA rules, might be his finest work.<<

Like w Arizona basketball- the King usually shields himself with Pawns who are willing to take the hit as "company men" under the guise of aggressive young gun who is trying to get ahead. Adam likely took a hit for Herm. Politics and football coaching are probably more similar than Brenneman thought.
Sean Miller's "escape" home to Xavier, still big salary and a top 25 ranking isn't nearly the punishment Book Richardson got. Same with Bruce Pearl and Chuck Person.
30 years ago I had a salesman whose wife worked in NCAA Compliance out of Kansas. She investigated the Jamal Mashburn $25,000 UPS BOX explosion. He told me each and every top coach has layers in place for plausible deniability.
Miller is filthy and it is likely that Harbaugh is too. We probably aren't perfect, but after all we have been through re Sandusky we probably play it as straight as possible because we know that we are under a microscope.
The NCAA and the media love a good Penn State done wrong story. Hope Jimma leaves in shame....
Cut to the chase: they will receive minimal punishment. Maybe 5 scholarships at most and no probation.
Westcoast- often it is not the crime, but the cover up. Here's hoping that whatever the truth is comes out, and whatever fluff and deception which may, or may not have been used, is outted for whatever it is.
While I may disagree with much of what is published about him, Harbaugh doesn't seem like a bad human being. But he also seems to be just enough of a prick to think his shit doesn't stink, which may end up his undoing. Dude is definitely an odd duck who may just have made a mountain out of a molehill.
If so he has nobody to blame but himself. If he has done nothing wrong, then so be it.
No way they take any ships. Some puny fine, two years probation, some compliance training. And a tssssssk, tssssk, tsssssk.
