UM: NCAA
On The Wolverine blog, Jonathan Chait writes about UM’s NCAA rules violations and the original Detroit Free Press investigation on these issues: “The average college football fan heard last year that the Detroit Free Press reported major violations by the University of Michigan football program. Then they heard today that the university admitted to major violations. The average fan probably concludes that the Free Press report has been vindicated. It’s a sensible conclusion based on limited information. But it’s wrong. To read the original Free Press report alongside the university’s report is to compare two pictures that bear almost no relation to each other.” [Source]
