Harbaugh sideways with NCAA
- Status
They scouted opponents away from their home stadium. Under modern NCAA standards you could pimp out your cheerleading squad and only get a one year postseason ban.
Source: Ohio State inquired about in-person scouting of CFP opponents ahead of last season's playoff
Is it legal for college football teams to scout CFP semifinal games in person? It was last season, after some confusion and discussion. That's no longer the case.
And another wrinkle to the story. This is taking the scUM O$U rivalry to a new level
My previous comments about scUM not getting punished was due to their blue blood status. But I don’t know what happens when a equal to bigger blue blood is the one instigating the allegations
It sounds like OSU asked for clarification of what scouting is permitted by CFP. They may have also been one of the schools reporting scUM’s widely recognized violations. Is either of these acts objectionable? Sounds like just good honest citizenship. Nothing wrong with instigations if they turn out to be true.
According to one media comment,
'A Group of Five head coach told me yesterday that he is just baffled that they left such a paper trail in this. Quote: 'In some ways they should be held accountable for just sheer stupidity.'
Pretty much describes Harbaugh and ScUM in a nutshell.

NFL might impose suspension on Jim Harbaugh, if he tries to return
League action against Harbaugh could amount to antitrust violation or collusion.

It may be stupidity, but personally I think it's more arrogance and thinking they are above the rules.

Not stupidity. Arrogance.
Arrogance is often the underlying cause of stupid actions.

I think they may own this one.
Both coaches are for sure at the bottom of the likability list in the B1G

The College Football Playoff committee has a decision to make.

While I agree with the author's point, it has to be looked at with a side eye as he's a writer for a Buckeye rag . . .
Side-eye? I wonder what color the sky is in his parallel universe.
They must be banned from the post season. Anything not keeping them from the playoff is not a punishment. Vacating wins means nothing to anyone except record books. Players, coaches, and fans will only respond to losing a chance at a title, or even a bowl game.
Millions of dollars are kept from their program, players who came to play at the highest level no longer have that motivation and lose chances to be seen on a national stage. Fans lose interest because there is no chance to win anything and the regular season doesn't matter.
Two to four years of postseason bans, including B1G Championship, should be the minimum. That's the only real lever the NCAA has.

What? No firing squad? How 'bout we nuke Ann Arbor from orbit -- it's the only way to be sure.

If this is true, this is a whole different level of cheating. The scouting ordeal, it's against the rules, but it goes on in every sport. That's a firm slap on the hand. If they're involved in something like this....it's probably a fire able offense. Could be wrong. Don't see Michigan (or the conference) giving that playoff money up.
we can only hope that this circus continues and keeps dragging ScUM down into the slime pit in which they deserve to spend the rest of eternity. And in keeping with date today . . .
