Long time reader (practically everyday) first time poster.
Had a thought. Let's flash forward beyond the rulings and just say that there is indeed "justice in the world" and OM gets annihilated. Given their tendency to deflect and pass blame, what do you think the chances are that some outside OM lawyer alum contacts them with the idea of suing the NCAA not for bullying, unfairness in the investigation, unethical behavior during the investigation, or any of the other arguments that OM message board talking heads are claiming, but on the premise that OM cheated b/c they were forced to by the unfair system of "haves and have nots" that the NCAA has created.
The argument being that for a smaller school like OM w/ no real relevance in the national spotlight since the days of segregation, the only way to create a new seat at the "big boy" table and garner respect was to cheat to overcome the advantages of the "big boys" and to counter this unfair system set up to keep them down.
I have no idea how someone could realistically argue this, but since when do you need facts to sue someone?
What say you? Sorry if this is the dumbest thing you've ever heard and a waste of time. I thought it sounded plausible.
