Wolverine Wednesday: You Can't Outrun the Stupidity of the NCAA

It's in both Michigan and the NCAA's best interest to make sign gate go away quietly.   The NCAA clearly does not want that to happen and now Michigan is fighting back.    They sent it a long response to the allegations of Michigan sign stealing.  I wish they were that aggressive when Jim was here.   

Either way, its finally the proper response.  The NCAA lacks power and it really lacks power over college football.  This story was dead over 12 months ago, but it stays alive thanks the NCAA trying to get a pound of flesh.  Let's not forget the big FBI/NCAA Sting that had coaches on wiretaps paying players and nothing ever came of that.  The NCAA hates Jim Harbaugh for not remembering he bought a kid a hamburger and ever since has been out for blood.  

The other thing that pisses me off from that time, is when the Big Ten got involved.  They had no business penalizing anyone without the facts of the case finalized.   That staff is in the NFL now, the story is over, move on.  Or continue to spend millions of dollars to get nowhere.  

• Bret Bielema sure is getting aggressive lately.  He threw an aggressive message at Jim on social media.  He must be feeling very comfortable in Champaign, Illinois.  Let me rephrase, he looks like he is feeling comfortable. 

• Reports are Rocco's team is working with Michigan on an NIL offer and a visit for this weekend.  He visited IU this past weekend and Nebraska on Tuesday.  Michigan is also involved in ND's center Pat Coogan.  Both need to make a quick decision as enrollment deadline looms for all the schools both are considering. 

• Michigan players at the Senior Bowl include, Donovan Edwards, Josaiah Stewart, and long snapper William Wagner.  Mullins had to decline the invite due to an injury. 

• Jalen Milroe has small hands for a QB.  Yikes!
