  • Chemiclord continues to be extremely tiresome. Michigan found out about the wrongdoing, fired the coach and divested itself of its championships and wins. He seems to think UM supporters claim the school's employees and student athletes don't cheat. Everybody cheats. Michigan acts harshly when you're caught cheating. Yes, it is different. It's sad that you can't see it.

    ...shouldn't have said, "Everybody cheats." Not everybody cheats. There are honest brokers everywhere. But every major college sports program has had its cheaters.

    • Listen, I'm sorry that your school isn't this bastion of integrity like you want to believe it is.

      I'm glad that you are content that they slap themselves harder after they've been caught. I'm not. How about they... I dunno... not cheat before you thump their chests about the school superior integrity?

      But really, I don't care so much that Michigan tries to cheat the system. As I've said, all major programs do, and there's very little that is going to stop it as long as college sports are such big money makers.

      But don't pretend Michigan is any better than anyone else. They're not. That's what irritates me.

      • What a thread.

        Once again Ktwat proves that he is a dumbass.

        Who'd a thunk it?

            You are highly amusing.

                You have to admit it's pretty silly to accuse MSU of being dirty all based on Cleaves being in the early stages of Unlce Ed's grooming process, a UofM booster, no?

                • call me ignorant, but I honestly believe that Izzo does not cheat, he's just a different kind of cat ... which is not to say that MSU hasn't had guys who did. Darryl Rogers, George Perles.

                  Izzo is a different cat. Plus his recruting record validates it. He get's good players, but very rarely those high profile super stars. Here's a team that is the epitome of success yet still has a hard time pulling in the McDonald's all-americans? Why? Because Izzo doesn't grease the wheels of the guys who 'handle' so many of those players. That's how guys like Calipari do it.

                  • I don't think Izzo cheats. He seemed really shook up over that deal where he had to take the suspension over the recruiter who got paid to work his camp.

                      Paid like $10 an hour to teach basketball to kids. And we still don't know his relationship to a potential recruit or if MSU was even aware. I think if you compare izzo missing a game for that deal and then Tressel self imposing a 2 game suspension (and money.. which OSU can just repay him next time his contract comes around) seems ridiculously small for willfully misleading the NCAA and directly lying to them.

                        You know, Brook, I had mentioned that because it seemed very trivial and Izzo seemed genuinely remorseful. But your springing to the defense and offering a raft of excuses has made me rethink my position.

                              Well I am an MSU homer no doubt. But I'm also right
