At least his retirement is well funded.

I look forward to seeing him at UNC in 3 years

Are you ok with head coaches that get kids killed, literally?

Because you're right. I could absolutely see him landing there if Bill leaves.

Fair, but I expect you to throw your weight around and get the right people hired. Don't the Tarheels play in TheCatt Fieldhouse?

Lol. If I had that kind of money, it'd go to an Island full of naked (legal) women.

Cheaters acknowledge their cheating and quietly drop their appeals.

Their fans can never deny it now. They cheated. Someone should etch an * right on the trophy for them. In fact, if the NCAA had any balls or integrity, that would have been part of the punishment.

I'm sure they'll stop then. :roll:

This Christmas, you should buy all of your Michigan fan friends UofM shirts that show championship dates. And with a sharpie, asterisk 2023 on all of them. If you bought me one, I would wear it. Especially around my wife's family.

And to say they acknowledge the cheating is implying they had the honor to do that. . . They didn't acknowledge it. They are actively continuing to deny it and spinning this as taking the high road "for the children".

There are already shirts in TTUN colors with a giant asterisk on the front.

You know for my whole life I heard about how TTUN was a school of integrity.

I didn't realize integrity meant selling your soul just for the chance to argue your team's relevance. I hope they enjoy it (and I don't think most do because it eats at them that it's tainted) because there isn't another fan base in the country that recognizes it.

I would say that most don't care about it. "Everyone else cheated. Bout time we did. Just doing what everyone else was. Don't care, want to win. I think it's funny it bothers other people." Etc.

Michigan fans have become quite trashy over the years.

I thought that was a butthole.
Michigan was hit with fines that could total as much as $30 million but avoided a postseason ban or the vacating of past victories, including the 2023 season in which the Wolverines won the national championship.
Which is still bullshit.
