Head on over to YouTube and subscribe! https://youtube.com/live/BsaUB2Bs-RI Michigan's attorneys sent a 10-page response to the Big Ten outlining the reasons they believe coach Jim Harbaugh should face no disciplinary action from Big Ten commissioner Tony Pettiti in the signal-stealing case that has now entered its third week. The Wolverines threw out a variety of arguments, some more persuasive than others. Dan Wetzel of Yahoo! Sports obtained a copy of the response, and he joins the show to explain how Michigan plans to fight any potential action. Will Harbaugh be suspended? Or will the conference wait for the NCAA to complete its investigation, which likely wouldn't happen until after the season? Later, Arizona coach Jedd Fisch joins the show to discuss how his team became one of the hottest in America. The Wildcats, who face Colorado on Saturday, required a roster rebuild similar to the one the Buffaloes are undergoing. But Fisch explained how Arizona's rebuild had to be done differently and why being forced to build through high school recruiting and the transfer portal might have helped the Wildcats lay a foundation. Next, James Madison coach Curt Cignetti joins to discuss his undefeated team. The Dukes are not bowl eligible at the moment because they're only in their second season in the FBS, but James Madison's president and athletic director are petitioning the NCAA board of directors to allow them to play in the postseason. A waiver would make JMU eligible for the Sun Belt title game and a potential New Year's Six bowl. Next, it's Dear Andy, where Andy answers your questions.... on tomorrow's show!
