Does this mean they will have their National championship revoked?

This must have been written by someone who is a Buckeye and is wishcasting the BCS championship is completely separate deal from the ncaa their national title is going nowhere. The NCAA and it’s toothless enforcement arm may give them a major fine and maybe a scholarship reduction but they would have to prove being Purdue 49-0 would have been different with signgate.

this is most likely the dirtiest program in the history of the NCAA.

Until the next one comes along. Does anybody really think that this will discourage the next ones from thinking that they are smarter than the people at Michigan were, and they will be able to pull this off?

Too much money is involved for this to stop. The easy solution is to remove the money and go back to Chip Hilton days, but that ship probably sailed a long long time ago.

The corruption in NCAA football will continue because the rewards are worth the risks.

The last time the NCAA handed down severe punishment to a program was SMU's "death penalty" back in the 1980s, and the NCAA did it because they could afford to lose SMU.

Big-time programs like Michigan will skate because they bring in lots of money and you don't kill the cash cows.

Jumper, you are clearly an OSU homeboy (or girl...) I hate to tell ya, but it IS a big nothingburger. You won the National Championship, but you all still can’t get over losing to Michigan AGAIN. Move on, free yourself from the bitterness. LOL!

This is hysterical. It’s exactly the kind of pieced-together screed of dire deeds and nefarious intentions, replete with secret FBI investigations and imminent, startling revelations and shocking consequences— just like those seen Alabama boards regarding Auburn’s crimes and conspiracies, and vice versa.

I’m going to go out on a limb here and guess this was constructed on the prayers and hopes of an Ohio State fan who views hatred of their rivals as the true religion. You gotta love college football, :)

SMU did much less than this and got the “death penalty.” They were banned from recruiting, playing games, going to post season eents for multiple years. Not only did the NCAA rip SMU, they basically upset the old and storied Southwest Conference.

I’ll be shocked if Michigan gets anywhere near equal punishments. Two-tiered justice is not limited to the Federal Courts.
