A lot of people in the midwest believe only MSU and OSU fans care about the Michigan sign stealing scandal. I am interested how South Carolina fans feel about it at this point.

None of the choices work for me. They haven't released the results of the investigation, so we don't know if it's a nothing burger or a big deal. It depends on what Harbaugh and/or Moore knew about it as well the other staff, and what, if anything they did with Stalion's info.

Yeah, I haven't heard anything concrete, so hard to get too excited about an option.

Personally I don’t care enough about either it or Michigan to form an opinion. I believe that the ‘scandal’ could turn out to be heinous and the ncaa would find a way to give Michigan a pass. Meanwhile we get would dinged for passing out cookies or sharing Netflix subscriptions.

I'm sure most teams are engaged in similar, if not quite as egregious, activities.

I don't think the NCAA will do anything of consequence to Michigan. Michigan is a blue blood program that wins a lot of games. Blue blood programs that win a lot of games are pretty well immune to any punishments from the NCAA.

At this point, what does it matter?

The coach is gone. Many (most?) of the players and staff are gone. These punishments that come down so long after the crime are pointless. So what if you make them vacate wins or take a title away. They still know they won and everyone else does too.

I vote for #11…..sign stealing should be legal. If your sign system is bad enough to be seen and stolen, it’s on you. Kind of like card counting. Should be legal.

Monetary fines paid to the "victims" because you can't replay the games.

Then make sign stealing of this nature legal b/c it's inevitable. Find a better system.
