Meyer can't really comment without it appearing to be sour grapes. I agree that what happened at Ohio State didn't affect the field of play, but that doesn't seem to be the criteria for a severe penalty or a slap on the wrist. The criteria ever since SMU seems to be come down on players that break the rules, but leave the kids alone. Did the penalty affect Ohio State players who were not envolved the following year? Sure it did, but they didn't care then. It was just a signal, at least for blue bloods, that if you break the rules you can donate to the NCAA coffers as a penalty and move on. No harm, no foul....pass the plate.

…….. and where’s the College Football Playoff Committee?????? Are they going to stand up and say ‘We want out Nattie Title Trophy back’ or are they goin’ say “We got our money, just let it slide?????

…….. and where’s the Big Ten Conference??????? “Uh, leave your number and we’ll get back with you.”

…….. and what’s the University Of Michigan going to do about it?????? Deny, Defend and Justify.

They rarely disappoint! :D :D :D
They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.

The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.

See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.

OK…….. just watched it AND IT’S GREAT!!!!!! Absolutely loved the satire, exposing the idiots at Michigan and what they did.

I’m been ranting about what happened since it happened……. and have no idea why it took so long for the NCAA to verify, expose and ‘drop the hammer’. But it sure didn’t take Michigan long to APPEAL THE RULING!!!!!!
