Interesting. Their bye week falls on 9/23. Thought that's what they were shooting for.
9/11 is a Mon. That's the week they play at Cal. Interesting.
Guess it's too much to hope they manage to drag it out until after February so that sanctions don't start until the 2019 signing class.
What would be funny is if UM contests anything, for the COI to basically reschedule something for March. Not sure if that's how it works, but if I were the NCAA, after UM lied about the NOA originally right before signing day, I'd love to respond by managing to make them go through an additional signing period before the penalties started.
They would definitively be allowed to finish the current season. Once the season was over all the players would be allowed to transfer with no penalty and the coaches could go find new jobs pending their show cause hearings.
OM could immediately begin the search process for a coach to rebuilding their program the right way once the DP was over.
The SEC would give directives on what SEC teams would need to do to fill the empty date on the schedule. It would probably be adding another cross division game where possible.
OM would be responsible for paying the penalty for the OOC contracts they will have broken.
For all the inconvenience the SEC would consider removing them from the conference but probably wouldn't out of consideration for the other sports at OM.
