The NCAA has been the punching bag for generations of collegiate sports fans, going back to the days when John Wooden was shrugging his shoulders and winking into the camera every time one of UCLA's boosters paid a kid to become a Bruin.
And now, in the Mad Maxian era of NIL warlords and a transfer portal (...to HELL), it seems like the Powers That Be are more neutered than ever. The good news is that they can start to claw back their credibility by turning the Michigan football program into a fine paste.
Will they? Who the hell knows!
