Summary
The NCAA and Michigan have moved to the “leak wars” portion of their fight over sign-stealing. Godfrey, Richard, and Alex discuss the art of NCAA investigation crisis comms, why elevating Sherrone Moore was a good hiring decision that would inevitably hasten this confrontation, where Michigan has a point and where it doesn’t, and how just about everyone in this ridiculous saga will get to claim a victory (except Central Michigan). Production: Anthony Vito.
