Do UCLA football fans respect and trust the NCAA?

On August 15, 2025, the NCAA announced its punishment for the Michigan football program. It is getting a lot of attention on social media, sports radio, and football TV shows because it includes fines and show-cause orders for individuals like former head coach Jim Harbaugh and current head coach Sherrone Moore. The penalties are the result of a highly publicized cheating scandal involving stealing signs and breaking other rules, such as recruiting rules, among other violations of the NCAA. The penalties are a fine of millions of dollars and limits on recruiting, but they don't include a ban on the postseason or the loss of the 2023 national championship or any vacated wins from 2021 to 2023.
