Not so fast. Turns out they knew about is since mid-Fall and were sitting on it to see if they beat OSU and went to the playoffs. Also, continued to sit on it until after signing day and "reportedly" only went public when the girls' parents threatened to go nuclear on them.

They ran an almost certainly half-assed investigation this summer designed to sweep it under the rug.

All that changed is that yesterday the woman laid out details. And most likely, Moore did something in the interim that made her change her story from the prior investigation.

Wish I didn't read all the details on his arraignment this morning.

The details are just sad. Getting caught up with your subordinate is one thing, getting fired over it, threatening suicide and then going to their house and attacking that person is just a full scale mental break.

Hard to feel bad for someone who gets themselves into that position in the first place, but man oh man my stomach hurts for the fallout. Literally may have ruined his entire life over this. Truly hope not and he gets some help. I've never rooted for Michigan in my entire life. I've never spent a single minute thinking about Moore. Now we know so much about his personal life and this absolute spiral that may cost a 39 year old man his family and life as he knew it.

I'm old enough to remember Wednesday when a couple of folks here thought Michigan was somehow an example of how to handle this that OU should aspire to.

My youngest daughter got her undergraduate degree from UMich, and after her sophomore year she stopped going to football games. She said Michigan football was a cult, and the cult mentality was getting scary to her. Never thought I'd say this, but I think it's even a bigger cult than the one 70 miles up the road in Cowtown.

It is hard to believe, isn't it?

Ohio State isn't so much as a cult as it is the largest professional sports team in Ohio that everyone loves, at least in my opinion. Michigan is a different kind of weird.

My family all grew up as Michigan fans - my dad's best friend played football there in the 70s, peak Bo Schembechler - so I've been around it forever. They have a higher than thou aura to them and act as if they are untouchable even in the overwhelming face of them being completely shitty (late in Lloyd Carr's tenure up until they hired Jim Harbaugh was always a fun time with the fam). They always cried foul at the SEC for cheating and then turned around and did it themselves to win a national championship, but acted like they did nothing wrong. They're brainwashed into thinking they're better than everybody at anything.

They love to talk about the history of Michigan and being a Michigan Man. Watch, they'll mess up this hire somehow instead of getting the right guy, they'll get someone who ticks the Michigan Man boxes. Because the last time they swung for the fences outside of their little bubble (RichRod) it failed miserably.

And those are just the college teams. When you lived in Cincinnati, were the Bengals/Reds consistently relevant?

Within the state's general population, I'd say no. Within the university administration, I'd definitely say it's worse than Columbus. OSU has recently forced out two Hall of Fame coaches who embarrassed it. That's a pretty big contrast to how Michigan handled Harbaugh, Moore and you can throw Juwan Howard in too. I think they had some serious scandals with the hockey coach also and fought doing anything about it until the last minute.

So because OSU showed accountability and held their coaches to account, it’s a bad thing? And in the same post you claim they hate being known as a football factory? Make up your mind here! And guess what they moved on from Tressel and had even more success. They moved on from Meyer and have found even greater success. Fact is, since Michigan hired Harbaugh, they have had 11 coaches either arrested for criminal offenses or banned by the NCAA. And yet, they claim it’s all a witch hunt.
