One of the cool things about having a relatively scant history is you can say things like “that is the best catch in school history” and be right

Nationally almost no one watched UConn, but they brought back basically their entire offense, including a 7th-year (!) QB, set a school record for yards, are playing a schedule that is not exactly rigorous, and have Skyler Bell, who rules. Fun ahead.

Look, I know it’s easy to goof on the early returns of the Belichick era at UNC, which is why we should all keep it up

Bill Belichick thinks 48-14 is unacceptable. Lucky for him the teams didn’t score one more touchdown each because 55-21 would be a healthy adult relationship.

I had a different reaction, which is that the amount here is another illustration of how low the House NIL cap is. What would Michigan spend on football NIL absent that? How much is it spending this year? It doesn’t make 20/30m chump change, but Michigan would happily pay at that level for players.

I shouldn’t get mad about decade-old NCAA hypocrisy, but they changed a rule, punished UConn for conduct that occurred *before the rule change* and ignored that it hurt current athletes. Michigan orchestrated a cheating scheme they called “KGB” and got no ban because it’d hurt current athletes.
No Escalators (@noescalators.bsky.social)
Warde Manuel (athletic director at UConn): This postseason ban punishes current athletes for past behavior. NCAA: Lol don’t care. Warde Manuel (athletic director at Michigan): This postseason ban punishes current athletes for past behavior. NCAA: Excellent point.

I’M SORRY WHAT WAS THAT
No Escalators (@noescalators.bsky.social)
Shorter NCAA: Did Michigan cheat? Yes. Did they destroy evidence by throwing it in a lake? Also yes. But you have to remember, they have been good at football for 100+ years so it’s important we not judge them too harshly.
