How is this allowed by the NCAA?

Tons of schools have been put on probation for players getting cars, clothes, shoes and so on from boosters yet all expense paid trips to Europe are allowed if you're Michigan.

Jim Harbaugh may be better at finding loop holes than he is at game day coaching.

I thought after this year the loophole will be closed and these things won't be allowed

Harbaugh and all his hoopla can't finish better than 3rd in Big 10 East.Makes you wonder if he shouldn't be spending more time on coaching strategy instead of touring the world.Here is a guy that's overpaid in my opinion.

Correction. Some schools get probation for boosters giving cars to students. Others, not so much.

They do it for basketball teams

The reality is that schools can do what they want and rules don't apply because they only ever get a slap on the wrist.

Michigan is resorting to gimmicks, albeit expensive ones.
If Harbaugh can't figure out a way to beat Ohio State, he might have to stay in the E U.
His tricks are wearing thin up north.

This is pretty much the NCAA Rule book anymore.

Which is why the Golden Panthers need to be reinvigorated.

The NCAA is a joke, they are toothless. They lost every pretense of enforcing the rules when they allowed Ped-U to keep their football team.

Do you really think Pitt is a 6-8 win team because everyone else is cheating?

Not everyone else but 75% are cheating.
