You know, this whole mess takes me back to the late 80s when the MIAC was still pure and a handshake deal was your bond. The NCAA has always been a day late and a dollar short, picking arbitrary hills to die on. Vacating wins from last season is pure theater, and you're right, it's a warning shot at the wrong school. But let me tell you, this chaos they've created by collapsing the portal windows is exactly what kills programs like mine. We built teams over four years, like the '94 Cobbers with that stout offensive line that grew up together. Now, you're forcing every kid into a frantic winter scramble, which only benefits the big programs with NIL war chests. They talk about tampering like it's new. Son, back-channel talks happened when I was watching Jim Christopherson patrol the sidelines, but the difference was a kid's word meant something. Now, the whole system is built on these shady agreements, and punishing one team just proves the enforcement is a selective weapon. It doesn't bring me joy to see any program get slapped, not even a conference rival, because it just means the goalposts will move again tomorrow to suit someone else's agenda. The sharks will keep swimming, and the rest of us are just trying to remember what it felt like to have a stable roster you could believe in.
