That was a great article and worth the read. Sums up the accusations perfectly, both disturbing and hilarious. 

 

And we can rest assured that any possible penalties will be dealt out by the NCAA, will arrive in time for the new B1G media negotiations, 2036.

Sources: NCAA revealed Michigan findings to Big Ten; conference mulling Jim Harbaugh suspension

 

On Monday morning, the University of Michigan football program welcomed a visitor: former pro wrestler Ric Flair, an eccentric personality known for his colorful wardrobe and entertaining bouts in the ring.

 

It’s a fitting start to a week that could evolve, in both Ann Arbor and Chicago, into an unprecedented showdown between a school and its own conference.

 

The NCAA has revealed its latest findings in the Michigan sign-stealing investigation to the Big Ten, and the conference continues to consider a multi-game suspension of head coach Jim Harbaugh as the school gears up for legal action, sources tell Yahoo Sports.

 

The NCAA’s findings do not connect the in-person scouting and recording of opponents’ sidelines to Harbaugh, sources say, an absence of evidence essential to a potential lawsuit from the school and coach against the league.

 

Over the weekend, the school was given a period of several days in which to mount a response to the conference before penalties, if any, are levied, sources with knowledge of the discussions say.

Sources: Michigan says Rutgers, Ohio State, Purdue shared its signs

 

Michigan has sent documents to the Big Ten that the school believes show three conference teams engaged in communication about the Wolverines' signals in 2022, sources told ESPN.

 

The three teams involved are Rutgers, Ohio State and Purdue, sources said. Purdue, which faced Michigan in the 2022 Big Ten championship game, received offensive signals from Ohio State and defensive signals from Rutgers, according to sources.

 

Michigan beat Rutgers 52-17 on Nov. 5 and beat Ohio State 45-23 on Nov. 26, a game that clinched the East Division for the Wolverines.

Big10 - A Division of scoundrels?  And for this we killed the Pac-12? 

 

Here's the best line from the above story from the WSJ:  "This isn’t le Carré, sorry. It’s a caper directed by the Coen Brothers."

This is semi-humorous journalism reporting on a series subject at its best.  Make no mistake, this type of writing is an editors dream.
