According to a journalist alum, Tony Pettiti wanted President Ono to suspend Jim Harbaugh for two games today.
President Ono, given the situation, declined to do so.
Michigan will not be taking anything with Harbaugh lightly.

The Balas story raises some red flags, the biggest of which is that the B1G and universities don't sandbag one another like Balas claims the B1G did to Michigan's admins. Hiding evidence in order to present it in the face-to-face is not the way professionals work (except police detectives).

Also, is the B1G even investigating? I thought the NCAA was.

Impressed with Santa standing up for his people in the face of immense pressure from the public and the conference. I have faith that he will eventually replace Warde with someone who has similar fortitude!

Once again Michigan is now playing big boy football, stealing signs and declining suspensions for bullshit. That’s how a real program acts and again the results in the field spell it out.

I've believed in Santa since I was a small child! I still do!

The fact that the offer was 2 games makes me think that whatever they think it is is not that serious.
Cheeseburger gets you 3, whatever this is gets you 2. Shows how serious they think it is.

It was most likely to appease the angry mob and Santa told him to kick rocks

If it was just to appease the mob, that tells you all you need to know about Pettiti as a supposed leader.
He may be able to negotiate a great TV contract, but he’s a shitty leader of people. But I suppose the powers that be didn’t care about them when they hired him.

I hope any of you at the game cheer like we already won the natty when Santa and Jim are announced tomorrow before the game or at halftime. Screw this malicious trash PR scheme.
November 3rd, 2023 at 9:03 PM ^
Imagine the tension the players want to let out. We’re all ready to go to battle, so God help the souls of the boilermakers tomorrow. Dropping 70 on them
November 4th, 2023 at 12:11 AM ^
I’ve never been more certain that we’ll cover a 32.5 spread than we will tomorrow. Harbaugh will send a message. I think we’ll be covering by halftime. Bet it all.

That's great, it starts with an earthquake, Buckeyes are snakes, and Sparty complains but Santa Ono is not afraid. Eye of this hurricane, makes my stomach churn, media serves its own needs, don’t mis-serve your own needs. Day says speed punishments up a notch, we have toughness ‘n strength. ESPN starts to clatter with a fear of signals stolen like it matters, hike hike.
B1G on the wire tells M they should fire, will opt to suspend Jim seven games, for Stalions hire and game film found on site. NCAA not coming in a hurry despite other teams breathing down our neck. Anonymous team after team, reporters baffled, trumped, bamboozled, dropped. Look at that cell phone, no server from home! Balas says uh oh, no go, now we’re gonna crash. This won’t do, this won’t do, save yourself, save yourself. Yahoo Sports serves its own needs, just wants to see Michigan bleed. And James Franklin is feeling kinda psyched.
It's the end of the world as we know it It's the end of the world as we know it It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine!
Yeah, it makes no sense; but neither does anything from this situation so…

Well done!

Big 10 commissioner is such a pettiti man.

If this is true, take the two game suspension and be done with the fucking thing. I never want to hear Connor Stallions name again. I don’t even want to hear about Ryan Day and his brother again. Just take two games off. Both will be wins. Hell take a three game suspension, just come back for the OSU game, kick their ass, and then bust Ryan Day’s nose open at the 50 yard line. You want headlines, there you go. You can spend the next few days arguing which ass kicking was worse, the 40 point team win or the first round KO by Harbaugh.

My new hot take: tear down the Bo statue and make it a Santa Ono statue
November 4th, 2023 at 6:48 AM ^
Ono for President!

"It would be hypocritical to punish one party for having unethically obtained information on basis of illegally obtained information. As well as extremely dangerous precedent."

In a since deleted thread, i predicted exactly this!
