lol. No it’s not. Michigan arguing these are level II violations illustrates how non serious this actually is. That hammer is going to turn into a feather.“It’s not a lie if you believe it.”
The shitstorm is coming
Them getting the proof they need has been what this entire investigation was. michigan was just given the opportunity to prove them wrong once presented with the NOA, and it really sounds like they're doing an awful job of it. The NCAA isn't having to present this evidence to a higher power, they are the judge/jury/executioner. Do michigan fans not know this?
I think it's closer to 'Preponderance of the evidence' because they don't even have subpoena power.
Jesus Christ. No. I didn’t. And it’s amazing you’re this dumb. I’ve actually gone back multiple times and shown you the original comment, which references a screenshot someone took on their phone of the video at the moment a blue light was seen. That is what this was talking about. Always has been but your dumb ass can’t get over the fact that someone took a screen grab of a video on their phone and tweeted it out. Because the original source was a video doesn’t negate the fact that from the start I’ve been referencing a viral screenshot of it.
According to the articles, their entire evidence for in person scouting in all but 8 individual cases is that stallions bought a ticket to a game.
And based on this article, it sounds like they didn’t get any proof. This now goes to an infractions committee - which is a 3rd party. So no, the NCAA isn’t the judge jury and executioner. They have to make the case now to this committee just like Michigan will have to, because no settlement was determined prior.
Ohh, this not you?
That will be up for the infractions committee to decide at this point I guess. But again, there's a lot of unanswered questions -- and specifically about what level of violations those end up being individually. A lot of the major infractions were either related to being "repeat" offenders for staff members or procedural things like the deletion of the recovered texts.
This is under dispute. Michigan broke the rules. A lot of teams break rules. How many teams report secondary violations every year? Does that equal cheating? Are these major infractions or minor infractions? There's a lot we just don't know.
Michigan assistant coach - “You’re not using this kid in your signal organization stupid thing, so, like, just have him be a manager.”
It's very clear we were talking about two very different things. There's a video. There's a screenshot of the video with the blue light. I went back and looked and it does look like you did post the video prior to that post, but prior to the video post I had been referencing a screenshot of said video. I'm not sure how you still don't understand that? At no point was I intentionally calling a video a screenshot.
I find it fascinating you believe this. Weird that it carried on after this mastermind quit, huh? You know, where we won all of our most important games without a head coach or stallions on the sideline? And I think we recovered pretty well this year from losing 13 NFL draft picks and an entire coaching staff in one offseason, followed through by beating Ohio state and Alabama again after a rough break-in period for an entirely new staff and roster.
The NCAA of today is not the NCAA of the reggie bush era -- see them returning his shit. If these are found to be level 2 violations, this may very literally turn into a nothingburger. I think the biggest thing they might get us on is the actual nothingburger combined with this for "repeat" offenders. But I suspect that will target more the school with fines and scholarship reductions than anything else.
Is this your way of apologizing and admitting you were wrong?
