Michigan/Shea Patterson file appeal

With the way the NCAA operates, I refuse to get my hopes up.

I'm of the opinion that the reason the NCAA is so inconsistent with seemingly inexplicable standards that apply unevenly from team to team is because it is made up of people that probably have the same stupid biases we all have to various degrees. Those people come and go, so the biases change over time.

You would think that whatever decision they come to, it would apply to all the players in this situation. Have any other Ole Miss players had their appeal ruled on yet?

it's regulatory capture... the same reason the SEC openly ignores insider trading by bank execs, and big bank fraud, but comes down hard on the same conduct by two-bit actors in Cedar Rapids, IA, or Little Rock, AR.

I seem to recall a Buckeye being involved on the NCAA side of things when the tattoo thing was discovered and there was that former player publicly saying it had been going to for 10 years and the NCAA just acted like it never happened.
