Keep this in mind about OM delaying their announcement

Gosh I hope yall are right nothing would be sweeter then for them to go down in flames and not have any hardware to show for it. I just will have to see it to believe it. Surely with all of the smoke there will be a large fire. There is no doubt they have been more than tip toeing the line I just hope the ncaa actually hammers them. It is going to suck if nothing big happens and we will be made to look like fools. I do think the longer this drags out the more it will help us regardless of the outcome.

The NCAA can't afford to come out of this looking weak or like a bunch of idiots, ie, Miami investigation. If OM gets a slap on the wrist after all the time and money the NCAA has spent, then I believe it will be the end of the NCAA as a ruling body at least for football.

Coach 34, Is there ANYTHING in all this that will incriminate Dickie Scruggs and/or the former flagship leaders Robert K and Boone? It seems that would HAVE to come up somehow someway.....If not I guess they are brilliant for coming out clean.

I would wager that where possible, some older officials have lined up to be disassociated. Same for the boosters. This would allow UNM to hold to the 'previous regime' arguments and possibly avoid Freeze and his lieutenants from getting show cause penalties. As we get closer, I do believe significant penalties are going to happen but that network is already trying to maneuver itself into a new structure. They are too arrogant and too obsessed with protecting the plantation's cause to not continue the march.

In a perfect world the NCAA drops the hammer for the first round plus the Tunsil period stuff. Then, during the ongoing investigation to 2015 and 2016 recruits they try something new and are caught. When that happens it will seal their fate.

The NCAA having worked up the Miami football investigation and dragging out the UNC situation is going to possibly make UNM a two or three time loser in this process. SMU took a reasonable penalty in round one - by the time the NCAA unearthed the continuing BS is was time for the gallows.

It's a slow cooker and UNM is only going to make it harder than it needs to be.

Confederates fighting to protect a Lost Cause? Who'd a thunk it??

I have always thought they truly consider UNM football the second wave of the civil war or at least the ultimate tool to advance the confederacy. That whole place is an embarrassment.
