It doesn’t matter what other people said, Michigan got caught, they broke the rules and should pay for it, it’s a very simple matter

But it DOES matter. Because it puts the lie to your claim that everybody else follows the rule. They don’t. Laws that should be scoffed make scofflaws.

Show us the evidence of all the other teams breaking these rules. Show us other entire sidelines indicating pass or run right before a snap.

If everybody is doing it - as you say, there should be ample evidence of that claim.

No it does not I bet after Michigan gets punished not another school will be getting punished because they are not doing anything close to what they were doing

Regardless if multiple schools are cheating like Michigan got caught and there’s ample evidence to support this

Show us evidence Michigan is doing it. Meanwhile if you don’t think other teams are doing it you’re deluded.

I bet the NCAA changes the rules within two years. The same as the NFL. And MLB. They know this rule is stupid. And they’re embarrassed to have this in the public.

What do you call this? Why does the whole sideline point to the sky at the same time?

Don’t know. Don’t care. The NCAA chooses to pretend it’s the 1950s and not put radios in their helmets. Everything after that is on them.

Until the rules change it’s still cheating

Look it’s obvious at this point you just want the last word. So have the next reply, I’ll leave it alone. We all know the rule is moronic, like so many NCAA rules. And will be changed. You still want to worship the stupid rule. That makes me sad for you. But, your problem. Good bye, good luck.

When one is following the rules and another is cheating it’s a unfair advantage even if the rules are stupid

You would have to be a whole lot better, imagine knowing it is a run, and no need to protect against a possible pass.

Regardless not like it or not it is a rule, passed not that long ago because poorer schools complained that they could not afford to finance sending folks to scout

Funny that now a days you don’t need to find much. A seat and a phone with a decent camera and maybe a few classes on what they need recorded

Calling a rule stupid doesn’t mean you don’t have to follow it.

Honestly don't care if it's a big deal or not. Everything is corrupted, and that was my point. I wouldn't be surprised at all if everyone else did it, for all you and I know, they do. They're just pissed Harbaugh's so much better at it.

Or maybe they're pissed Harbaugh's pro-life and this is their way of getting even as another poster suggested.

Any way one looks at it, I just don't care. Everything's corrupted and nothing surprises me any more.

The entire back story with a Michigan booster trying to get rid of Harbaugh and Ryan Day’s brother being a private investigator is getting crazy.
I’m surprised that other Big Ten coaches want Harbaugh sanctioned. Every team tries understand their competitors signals and every team changes their signals routinely.

There’s nothing in this world that isn’t corrupted anymore


Sad, but I think very true.

It explains why I just don't give a damn' about anything anymore.

Well, that's not 100% true. I care about my family, my sons, my loved ones, and my relationship with Jesus. Everything else, nah.

Reading through this thread, it seems there’s a lot of folks here that think it’s ok to break the rules. The rules are stupid. Many here would make great Democrats. If you ain’t cheatin’, you ain’t tryin’, and you should lose.
