Any issues with Moore keeping his job? At a minimum I would expect "repeat violator" status and actions sufficient to trigger a 2 year "show cause" to have a spot on the agenda at the next Board meeting, no?
No loss of scholarships? I wonder why they picked those particular for the coach to miss? Lack of institutional control? If I was Michigan, I would sue the NCAA. The NCAA hasn’t won a court case in at least 20 years.
It would appear to me the 20 Million penalty seems to be the NCAA solution to the problem. Somehow I do not believe the loss of income will be of much significance to University of Michigan?

Yep, they got caught driving 75 mph in a school zone but the police only ticketed them for 10 mph over the limit and they’re upset. But, as you noted earlier, the NCAA’s history in litigation is not stellar.
