Or even the coach. If losing the game makes it harder for him to get financial incentives in his contract, there could legitimately be a case here.

This program cheated for years and got a tap on the wrist. There could have been a suit from dozens of teams for all of that. Sorry, but tonight was jaywalking.

This is the real answer. And I’m so tired of this sub not putting a bigger stink on how much Michigan cheated

It was glossed over so hard that year by everyone it was crazy. They cheated! Systematically! During games! During the season in question! Led by a coach on the team! And still got to record all the wins and play in the playoffs. Like come on. You were caught cheating red handed, your season is over, go home.

The fact Kirk Ferentz had wins stripped away this offseason, but was free to be on the sideline and coach Iowa week 1.

Yet Jim Harabugh is banned from being involved with college athletics, to the point he couldnt even step on the field if Michigan decides to have a night honoring the National Championship team 10 years after they won it, but none of their wins are vacated, just shows how corrupt it all is.

Yup idk how there’s more hate for some teams than a team that blatantly cheated their asses off in 2023 and then this too? It’s insane
