I last posted it about the lawfare against Trump and his children.

Quick item:
Harbaugh, the son of a former football player and coach and a former quarterback himself — first in college with the Michigan Wolverines and then for 15 years in the NFL — has become known for his outspoken pro-life Catholic views.

Another item that will be discussed someday:

Michigan the victim of this previously.

“Michigan shared evidence with the Big Ten on 7 November that alleged that Ohio State, Rutgers and Purdue had conspired to steal signs in a coordinated effort. Michigan alleged they were sent a document by a former Purdue coach that showed that the three schools were working in concert to decode Michigan’s signs.”
From The Guardian website.

I remember Dick Butkus saying that the offense used to say what the snap was on rather loudly in the huddle as some of the linemen were not very bright. He’d listen and when the offense approached the line he would smile and say, “It’s on two, ladies.”

Who cares about the sign thing? Conceal your signs better, have someone run the play in, or get smarter players.

Their fault. Just don't be too obvious.

The suspension is a big deal. Conference would not have taken out the big guy without air tight evidence he was involved in some way. The punk who was spying didn’t send his findings into a garbage can. And no way assistant coaches were working this without the interaction with head coach.

Damn, I was looking forward to that Michigan-Ohio State matchup too.

Say what you want about Harbaugh, the man can flat-out coach.

“ Harbaugh’s suspension bans him only from the sideline on game day, as he’s allowed to coach the team the remainder of the week.”

ESPN
