so the BIG laid out evidence to Michigan today with Michigan preparing to fight given Harbaugh told them he had nothing to do with this. Apparently the meeting didn't go like Michigan wanted and Harbaugh like to Mich President.

Good points . At the very least it’s lack of control. But let’s be honest, if harbaugh didn’t know he is incompetent . Of course he knewBottom line- too much going on underneath JH for there not to be a lack of inst. control
No Coach or AD anywhere survives this.
I am hoping the NFL also does what they did to Pryer and Tressel and hold to any suspension that may be handed down.
But with everything we now see- I think they are pretty much forced to act quick and harsh.
And then, I know the B1G is looking at $ and rep and the NCAA has no f-ing balls
As posted in the other thread, a connected Michigan guy on tMB says the same thing...Then a rumor on mgoblog posted that Harbaugh will be suspended indefinitely on Monday and Michigan will fight and ask for a stay. Who knows if true or not but Thamel mentioning some action happening soon makes it plausible.
For me, the Thamel comment gives it a little credibility.As posted in the other thread, a connected Michigan guy on tMB says the same thing...
Suspended indefinitely tomorrow.
better be more than that!As posted in the other thread, a connected Michigan guy on tMB says the same thing...
Suspended indefinitely tomorrow.
Thamel thinks some action will be taken in the next 48-72 hours (from yesterday).

just win babyRegardless of what the Big Ten or NCAA decides to do to Harbaugh, if Michigan allows him to continue as HC next year, Michigan will lose the respect of the other Big Ten schools/fans and of college football fans in general. In order to protect their institutional reputation, Northwestern saw fit to get rid of Fitzgerald stating that, as head of the program, he should have known about the hazing going on there. How can Michigan do any less in this circumstance?
NW if I recall correctly actually tried to keep Fitz and give him a two week suspension before training camp started during the time of year most coaches are on vacation anyway. If I recall they dropped the news right before the 4th of July holiday hoping it would go unnoticed. It was only after their student newspaper picked up on this and ran the story were they forced to fire Fitz.Regardless of what the Big Ten or NCAA decides to do to Harbaugh, if Michigan allows him to continue as HC next year, Michigan will lose the respect of the other Big Ten schools/fans and of college football fans in general.

UM's mindset is entirely different. They don't see what the problem is or how it pertains to JH. Rumor has it that Petiti asked them to suspend JH on their own over the weekend for two games and their president to him to go scratch. All indications are from their board that they will fight any in season discipline and are prepared to go to the mat for JH.
We like to crack jokes about the $EC, win at any cost mindset. But if we’re being honest, the B1G has had way more institutional embarrassment over the last decade plus. Look at the toxicity within PSU/Sandusky, MSU/Tucker/Nassar, UM/sign-stealing, OSU/wrestling abuse allegations, NW/Fitzgerald hazing, Maryland/Durkin. Hell, didn’t Iowa even have some recent racism allegations?michigan is like psu, putting football above all else
between this and the pedo using michigan resources, where is the institutional control?
How hard is this to figure out
It’s not. It was obviously him. It doesn’t take more than a day to figure out who it was if it was someone that was actually suppose to be there. Easy to identify by other coaches or just the person himself volunteering that was me.How hard is this to figure out

Lots of institutional control concerns to go around the conference.
Have they called it a witch hunt yet ?If you want to laugh go to MGoblue.com forums. Their fans have lost their minds. Suggestions include if JM is suspended joining the Ivy League, joining the ACC, suing the league, dropping dirt on OSU, etc. They seem to think that OSU is orchestrating this and they are an innocent victim and the league is OSU biased. Priceless.
The advice any competent lawyer would give UM in a situation where the facts (and law) are most likely against you is to drag it out and slow walk it through discovery. UM feels they can win a natty this year and imho will do anything to protect that chance. They do not want any decision during the season that may reflect negatively upon them. Lose to both PSU and OSU and I bet this gets resolved very quickly with a self imposed suspension of JH and bowl ban for 2023. Beat those teams and they will take any penalty during the season to court and try to drag it out past the playoff.It’s not. It was obviously him.

Now it’s more about the how and who was involved from CMU. I doubt it was McElwain but I could seee it being assistants or support staff.
Jim Harbaugh may be a colossal douchenozzle but he does have a sense of humor
I'd fire them if they were my client.The advice any competent lawyer would give UM in a situation where the facts (and law) are most likely against you is to drag it out and slow walk it through discovery.

Depends on the hourly and the upfront retainer.😊I'd fire them if they were my client.
That is why you are in a different area of law...The lawyers they are using make their living off scumbags willing to pay out their asses to delay any sort of findings or determination.I'd fire them if they were my client.
Article casually glazes over, "Shakur was later killed in an unrelated incident." Umm... WTF?Michigan football staffer fired after allegedly trying to meet up with 13-year-old girl
Published Nov. 3, 2023, 3:39 p.m. ET
The University of Michigan has confirmed it parted ways with football staffer Alex Yood after a video surfaced in September in which two men confronted Yood over accusations that he solicited an encounter with a 13-year-old girl.

IDK about that. Years ago, we had a prospective client with a lot of potential business ask if we could revive an abandoned intellectual property matter. There are rules for this, and in certain circumstances, you can't revive an abandoned matter. They intimated that if we wanted to work for them, we would file the paperwork to revive the matter. We replied by saying that we did not want to work for them that badly and good luck with their fraud (well not, that word, but that was the end). Integrity matters to us, and yes, there are far fewer scumbags in our line of work, but they seem to be everywhere.That is why you are in a different area of law...The lawyers they are using make their living off scumbags willing to pay out their asses to delay any sort of findings or determination.
