NCAA Punishes Michigan Football Over Sign-Stealing Scandal

The NCAA has imposed significant penalties on the Michigan football program following a controversial sign-stealing investigation. The Wolverines were hit with a multimillion-dollar fine exceeding $20 million along with a suspension for head coach Sherrone Moore, who will miss three games. Additionally, Jim Harbaugh received a 10-year show-cause order, extending his penalization further. The NCAA stated that while Michigan faced severe repercussions, they opted not to impose a postseason ban to avoid unfairly penalizing student-athletes. Responses from fans, particularly from rival Ohio State, indicate widespread discontent with what some view as lenient sanctions.
