UPDATE: Uh-oh! CMU, EMU and now WMU in big trouble thanks to Rich Rod!

[armageddon]

Looks like Rich Rod has been a baaaaaaaaaad boy...OK, so I'm inept and can't get the damn link to work.

Trust me and go to the Free Press sports page.

Players, anonymously, saying Rich Rod breaking NCAA rules as easily as he breathes regarding hours put in by the players.

You'll find another nail in DickRod's coffin there....
Michigan goes on probation for football for the first time for this, they'll run him out of town

Agreed. Except the NCAA won't ever go after Michigan football. They'll sit on their hands, make excuses and say they don't have the necessary investigative power.

Not with this one... Too many people at Michigan want to see him go down and will use this as an excuse.

Where is Cental Michigan? Is it anywhere near Central Michigan?

I agree he isn't loved in AA.

But no organization can drag its feet -- or just look the other way -- as impressively as the NCAA.

Just a few miles down the road from Eatern Michigan. ;D

This is one where they will have the necessary power. The NCAA has the power to call in pretty much any current athlete or college official. The NCAA can't do anything to compel ex-athletes and boosters, etc. onto the carpet. But they will call in every single UM football player if they need to. You can't get away with this stuff. It involves too many players and too many people will know.

I hope so, as a stiff punishment would be just if the stories are accurate.

Just skeptical.

When West Virginia fans see this they'll be laughing their asses off.

So what are they going to do? Retroactively vacate the Capital One Bowl win or something?

Do not read the comments. Fan boy assault in full force.

As in after the bowl streak of 33 straight years ended... a loss to Toledo... his ugly buyout with WVA... Justin Feagin's alleged cocaine dealing... yeah, the free pass has long since sailed...

Nope, cause DickRod didn't go to a bowl...

Holy hell do I feel bad for those freshmen who are quoted who didn't know any better. They're going to be killed by the coaching staff...but loved by their teammates. :)
