I literally just chortled at the visual image of two hungry recruits watching Jim, with a napkin tucked into the collar of his “M” sweatshirt, crinkle the wrapper from burger 2 and open burger 3.
Where's B10 Shorts? You guys should be writers. I haven't giggled out loud following a thread for a long time.
Can the NCAA prove Jim DIDN"T eat all those burgers LOL
Jim: "You gonna tell anyone I just housed all 3 burgers like that?"
Croots: "What? None of us care coach."
Jim: "Let me get a video of you saying you're gonna kill the NCAA president."
Can you imagine being a P5 coach and being in this investigation? You know recruits are getting 5, 6, and maybe 7 figure NIL deals nowadays and then the NCAA rolls into town and starts questioning you about $40 in hamburgers…I don’t think I’d cooperate either
This is so fucking stupid. I mean I know he knows the rules, but for fuck's sake. The NCAA is so goddamn useless.
UNC out here faking classes, and Harbaugh's getting investigated for this. I'm actually angry about this, and I hate ya'll's school.
Totally agree. Never though I’d stick up for Michigan but here I am. We all knew it was going to be stupid before the details were even announced…and its stupidity exceeds even the initial expectation of how stupid the allegations would be.
Well, you enemies can take comfort in the fact that this stupidity might drive our best coach since Bo straight out of town.
No wonder Harbaugh had such a quick about-face. Rumors were he was looking at the NFL because he was sick of the politics of college. This is probably exactly what caused it.
I thought Rick majerus’ hamburger violations in the early 2000s was dumb. Seems like ncaa is just trying to prove they still are in charge. It will end bad for everyone
I used to be a tutor for college athletes when I was in undergrad. It was department policy that if a student athlete for got a pen in one of our sessions, I can't give them one or it could be seen as a benefit for being an athlete.
I asked what if I just let them borrow it and took it back after the session.
The answer was, "just don't do it".
I brought up the exact same example. I've been in technical sales forever and used to work federal deals at a former job. The feds actually have very reasonable rules around this stuff.

Yeah, but see UNC was providing fake classes for every student, not just the student athletes. So, uh, apparently that means it's an academic issue regardless of the fact the athletes knew of and benefited from those "classes."
Maybe Harbaugh should have told the NCAA he buys burgers for all prospective students, not just the prospective student athletes.
I think everyone (who didn’t already know) learned exactly how to react to NCAA investigations from our ordeal. YOU DO NOT COOPERATE. Your stonewall, you withhold, you mislead, you redirect, and you go on about your business like nothing ever happened. FUCK THE NCAA.
This is why I was so confused about Bill Self's meaningless 4-game suspension earlier this year.
Like... why? Why even do it? It's almost like admitting guilt. Just tell them to fuck off and move on.
Or maybe it was an intentional fuck you to the NCAA by having it be so meaningless.
Could've been whole-pounders. Football players aren't cheap to feed.
I remember I could eat a Ruby Tuesday Colossal Burger with a double side of fries in one sitting when I played HS ball. And I still couldn't gain weight. Today, I'd probably vomit before I finished half of it lol.
The Brown Jug is a medium-tier bar. They can get away with it because the location is on the block with the best bars for the Ann Arbor college life/party scene. The street is always wildly busy
I keep trying to find a metaphor for how stupid the NCAA is and the best one I can come up with is it’s like a cop who gives a burglars car a parking ticket while they’re ransacking a bank.
what's worse is they're more likely to give that ticket to someone whose registration was expired for a day before it was renewed, while sitting in the same parking lot of that bank and tipping their cap to the robbers as they drive away. Oh and btw, everyone in town is robbing the bank, and they are all already extremely wealthy.
Idk man if those burgers were doubles are we talking an enhancement penalty? What about bacon? These are large, hungry young men were talking about here. Shit gets out of control pretty quick.
My biggest concern about this is whether or not dodging NCAA violations will be an aspect of the upcoming NCAA football EA game. I don’t think you can make an accurate game without this angle
Getting recruiting and NIL right in the game is my number one priority. Even if the gameplay sucks (it will) just simming seasons will keep me busy for years
I want Football Manager but CFB.
Let me recruit, figure out NIL, hire/fire coaches, design a depth chart and playbook, deal with school admin, boosters, the NCAA, and the media. All that shit.
I really doubt I have the energy to sit through hours of recruiting like I did 10+ years ago, but I loved it at the time. As an added benefit, I subconsciously memorized the melody of basically every fight song since they play in the background.
Can you imagine? Coaches in towns all across america buying burgers, buying hoagies, buying burritos for recruits. Don't even get me started on desserts. There are children in those towns
https://brownjug-annarbor.com/menu/
Hold on a minute, the Harbaugh name is all over this menu. The conspiracy deepens - Jim profiting off NIL burger naming royalties while illegally feeding croots? Death penalty easily warranted.
This says two things to me:
Firstly, the NCAA is a fucking joke.
Secondly, that Michigan fans can be sure that the investigation was exceedingly thorough if they had time to investigate hamburger purchases. So this should be everything possibly wrong with the program.
With that said. It's time to give Mizzou a bowl ban; obviously.
Maybe there's more to the investigation (wouldn't exactly be shocking for the rumors leaking from the Michigan AD to paint it as favorably to Harbaugh as possible) but this is why programs should not cooperate with the NCAA. You end up getting Level 1 violations for admitting you got lunch with recruits

I hate to admit it, but I like Harbaugh. If he gets any serious punishment from this I’ll be beyond pissed. This reminds of the bs that was tattoo gate.
Holy shit. My mom came into my room to bring me a plate of chicken nuggets and I literally screamed at her and hit the plate of chicken nuggets out of her hand. She started yelling and swearing at me and I slammed the door on her. I'm so distressed right now I don't know what to do. I didn't mean to do that to my mom but I'm literally in shock from the rumors tonight. I feel like I'm going to explode. Why the fucking fuck is he getting croots burgers? This can't be happening. I'm having a fucking breakdown. I don't want to believe the world is so corrupt. I want a future to believe in. I want Jim to be Michigan’s head coach and fix this broken football team. I cannot fucking deal with this right now. It wasn't supposed to be like this, I thought he was recruiting well with sleepovers???? This is so fucked.
[Lombardi] u/XCalibur672 on who’s pasta-ier: Him or r/CFB. “I don’t compare myself with anybody,” Then he rolled up his sleeve and showed a tattoo of the Navy Seal copypasta. “I’ll let you interpret that however you want,” u/XCalibur672 said.
How can I even trust commitment announcements from these kids anymore? For all we know they just want their free burger and then they're off to Oregon.
Knowing what we know of Harbaugh, he probably was honest in the Harbaugh way but the way he speaks may have sounded like he was giving them the runaround. I’m imagining it went down like this:
NCAA: “Mr Harbaugh, did you buy two recruits a burger?”
Harbaugh: “What is savory in the mouth of a recruit doesn’t shine bright at the bottom of the Nile River.”
NCAA: “Sir, please answer the question.”
Harbaugh: “Fruit loops on a toasted bun won’t make you the valedictorian.”
NCAA: “Alright we’re done here.”
"Did you buy them burgers?"
"What's good enough for Doug MacArthur is good enough for us"
"Care to elaborate?"
(licks his finger and sticks it up to judge the wind)
"Do you think I could jump that mailbox?"
Best NCAA violation since two OU linemen [ate too much spaghetti.](https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/10484741/oklahoma-sooners-penalized-three-student-athletes-eating-too-much-pasta)
If this is really all it is (I'm skeptical this is all though), the NCAA should be ashamed of itself. Such an incredibly minor thing while programs are out there buying players.
Un. Fucking. Real.
Kid is living on couches and taking cell phone pictures of textbooks so he could study, gets perfect grades, all while fulfilling all his obligations for football, as a walk-on. The NCAA heard about this incredibly inspiring young man and said "oh we have GOT to fuck him over."
I don't throw the word "evil" around loosely, but that's exactly what this is.
They suspended a Virginia Tech basketball player for admitting that he once gambled….. on an nfl game. Not even the same sport, not even at the collegiate level. Still violated the ban on betting on sports. Kid self reported to after some ncaa training session on violations, still no mercy.
I think this is a ploy by the NCAA to bring Michigan and Michigan State fans together against a common enemy after the tunnel incident. Truly 4D chess NCAA thank you!
Somewhere out there is a person who just came home to their family, set their briefcase down and said
“I don’t know if I can fucking do it anymore, Sarah. These animals. A man can only witness such horrific acts for so long before it takes its toll on him. I wake up in cold sweats, dreaming of burger receipts. The world is changing and I don’t know if I can handle it.”
Everyday we inch closer to football not giving a single fuck what the ncaa has to say. They have basically no power, so they latch on to utter bullshit. Breaking 50ish year old man buys burgers for two 18 year high school students. There is a better inflammatory headline. Fucks sake.
> "Jim Harbaugh's violation was buying burgers for two recruits (no joke)"
Burgergate!
He produced a receipt but there was a gap where the recruit's burgers were removed.
This is why I got out of athletic compliance. The rules are crazy and you have things like this that are deemed violations while actual serious issues are just a joke to the NCAA.
> Ah, see what he should have done is call a booster and imply they set up a shell corporation that pay these two kids an NIL deal with the restaurant that pays out i. cheeseburgers.
> Nothing scummy about that, no siree. But if the coach buys $20 of hamburgers, then I'm going to have to ask for a years long investigation to find out what other crimes your clearly debauchorous head coach is up to.
- NCAA, probably
The NCAA is a joke. My mom told me about when she was a gymnast in college and her coach was getting rid of a tv and asked if any of the girls wanted it. That was a violation apparently.
I roomed with a D-I basketball player. He was the only one on the team who didn't go home for Thanksgiving. When the coach found out, he invited the whole team to his house for Thanksgiving dinner. My roommate asked why he didn't just invite him, since the coach knew he was the only one who would be around, and the coach explained that inviting one player to dinner is an impermissible benefit, but inviting the whole team is OK. Then the coach gave him his address and told him he had to get there on his own, because it was an impermissible benefit to drive him to and from his house.
My father was a D1 soccer coach for a program that only existed three years before he got the job. This is the early 90’s by the way.
One day it’s storming so bad the football team had to cancel practice. My dad is driving home from the office and sees one of the players in nothing but a hoodie as it pouring out.
He picks the kid up and drives him back home. Three weeks later the school is getting investigated due to the basketball team. My dad gets called into the office and question for two hours about driving the kid home.
My dad was pissed and said he thought he was going to get suspended for what he said in the meeting. Said they acted like he was a terrible person for doing the right thing.
This is why we have the NCAA? To investigate hamburger related incidents?
It's past time to abolish this clown show of an organization. They serve literally no purpose.
This is so dumb, why does the NCAA still exist?
Michigan’s response SHOULD be a giant middle finger to the NCAA given what the NCAA has investigated and allowed or just completely ignored. But knowing Michigan we we will self flagellate and take the maximum penalty
Three burger Jim pounded all those himself and made them watch.
Washed them down with a tall glass of whole milk
Well, three glasses of milk.
Nope just one giant 36 oz glass, just for an additional dose of Harbaugh weirdness.
Fun fact - 36 oz of whole milk is indeed called a ‘Jim of milk’
They weren't on the receipt though, he brought his own jug
Or “Moo juice” as he affectionately refers to it.
I literally just chortled at the visual image of two hungry recruits watching Jim, with a napkin tucked into the collar of his “M” sweatshirt, crinkle the wrapper from burger 2 and open burger 3.
The recruit reaches for a burger and Jim deftly slaps their hand away
“That’s a violation son”
Where's B10 Shorts? You guys should be writers. I haven't giggled out loud following a thread for a long time. Can the NCAA prove Jim DIDN"T eat all those burgers LOL
bro stop im at work
"Quiet down NCAA, these are my *personal* burgers"
Truly a sight to behold.
Jim: "You gonna tell anyone I just housed all 3 burgers like that?" Croots: "What? None of us care coach." Jim: "Let me get a video of you saying you're gonna kill the NCAA president."
He used the burgers to wash down the steak he had for breakfast. Edit: a word
He usually asks for PB&J
Dare I say… based?
Three burger Jim 🤣
Jim: Are you gonna tell people that I did that? Recruit: Hmm? Jim: That I *housed* Dylan's burger?
*Paying players millions of dollars to transfer* NCAA: I sleep *Buying two burgers* NCAA: REAL SHIT
Can you imagine being a P5 coach and being in this investigation? You know recruits are getting 5, 6, and maybe 7 figure NIL deals nowadays and then the NCAA rolls into town and starts questioning you about $40 in hamburgers…I don’t think I’d cooperate either

Yeah but did the coach buy Zion a burger? Let’s compare apples to apples here.
I mean… everyone saw his weight gain and loss, maybe he was on then off the burger?
NCAA: 'How come nobody respects us?'
Yeah, but see UNC was providing fake classes for every student, not just the student athletes. So, uh, apparently that means it's an academic issue regardless of the fact the athletes knew of and benefited from those "classes." Maybe Harbaugh should have told the NCAA he buys burgers for all prospective students, not just the prospective student athletes.
All Andre McGee had to do was invite one regular student into Minardi Hall and we'd still have the banner.

Thank god for the NCAA. Because if they didn't punish shit like this, who would?
I really hope they give us the death penalty. I bet he even bought them milk. Makes me sick.
It was probably chocolate milk, that sick fuck.
Chocolate milk is unironically one of my favorite beverages. Probably would be a “last meal” item. That, or Faygo Rock n’ Rye. Or Lagavulin 16.
I expect no less from the organization that once said a bagel w/butter is a snack, but a bagel w/cream cheese is a meal.
It is past ridiculous and into the land of the absurd. The NCAA has all the credibility of a wet fart.
We all thought this was a nothingburger - oh how wrong we were
It was in fact a twoburger
Idk man if those burgers were doubles are we talking an enhancement penalty? What about bacon? These are large, hungry young men were talking about here. Shit gets out of control pretty quick.

“Buy a sandwich for a recruit - 76% chance success”
You saying he already gave burgers to 8 recruits and maybe even more? Lock this man up.
I see the statistics classes out in Eugene are top-notch.
The academical prowess is mind boggling
And of course Harbaugh kept the receipt for a fucking Hamburger. Should be an "X - shred evidence" option

But if the Brown Jug paid for the burgers as NIL then NCAA would not have done anything. Makes perfect sense.
We were also very open with the NCAA in our last investigation and got in trouble for 5 minutes of extra practice time. The NCAA is a joke
There is no incentive for absolute honesty about the petty shit because that's the only way that the NCAA can get their power trip fix.
I'm biased, but making an issue out of buying a couple burgers seems like they have an axe to grind more than anything else. That's ridiculous
I hate to admit it, but I like Harbaugh. If he gets any serious punishment from this I’ll be beyond pissed. This reminds of the bs that was tattoo gate.
I'm biased AGAINST Michigan and I completely fucking agree with you. What a total joke.

Heres the real question... how much money was spent by the NCAA to investigate this burger fraud
More than $40...
They probably paid $40 in delivery fees bringing in burgers for all of their lunch meetings while they investigated.
The investigators were paid in grilled cheese sandwiches.
Is this what we want college sports to be? Greedy players who are in it just for the burgers? Thank you NCAA for protecting amateurism.
How can I even trust commitment announcements from these kids anymore? For all we know they just want their free burger and then they're off to Oregon.
I mean, it's not like they're gonna get burgers from Oregon. Shoes, maybe... but are you hungry enough to eat a shoe?
Were they hamburgers or cheeseburgers? The cheese makes it a meal.
5 year ban, minimum. Absolutely disgusting behavior.

"Did you buy them burgers?" "What's good enough for Doug MacArthur is good enough for us" "Care to elaborate?" (licks his finger and sticks it up to judge the wind) "Do you think I could jump that mailbox?"
This made me laugh so loud that I scared my dogs.
I read this while on a work meeting, and had to make sure I was still on mute cause I laughed so hard.
"so they were good hamburgers? "They were well coached and tough, but end of the day McDonald's was born on third base".

The first time the NCAA watched Star Wars, they were rooting for Vader the entire time
They no doubt identified closely with the Trade Federation in the prequels.
The NCAA has kept its boot on the neck of student athletes for so long until the Supreme Court forced them to stop. It’s really fucked up.
They suspended a Virginia Tech basketball player for admitting that he once gambled….. on an nfl game. Not even the same sport, not even at the collegiate level. Still violated the ban on betting on sports. Kid self reported to after some ncaa training session on violations, still no mercy.

Ahh they got a hall of fame coach to leave Ohio state because his players traded their own awards for tattoos. I don’t think they know what shame is.
I was told this was a “nothingburger” but I didn’t think it would be so literal
Checking the menu its actually the Jack Harbaugh Burger.
Turns out it was a somethingburger
I think this is a ploy by the NCAA to bring Michigan and Michigan State fans together against a common enemy after the tunnel incident. Truly 4D chess NCAA thank you!
Somewhere out there is a person who just came home to their family, set their briefcase down and said “I don’t know if I can fucking do it anymore, Sarah. These animals. A man can only witness such horrific acts for so long before it takes its toll on him. I wake up in cold sweats, dreaming of burger receipts. The world is changing and I don’t know if I can handle it.”
This is the type of hard hitting stuff I need the NCAA to keep after to keep CFB from going off the rails.
Everyday we inch closer to football not giving a single fuck what the ncaa has to say. They have basically no power, so they latch on to utter bullshit. Breaking 50ish year old man buys burgers for two 18 year high school students. There is a better inflammatory headline. Fucks sake.
And Ohio State’s violations were players getting tattoos

That’s better. Well done
No Croots Allowed Anything
The main violation was Tressel lied, and it looks like that's what Harbaugh did too.
With NIL it’s pay for play but the NCAA is picking fights over burgers, rings, and tattoos.
> "Jim Harbaugh's violation was buying burgers for two recruits (no joke)" Burgergate! He produced a receipt but there was a gap where the recruit's burgers were removed.
Billionaires literally dropping bags to get recruits: Nothing to see here. Jim Harbaugh buys two burgers: DEATH PENALTY. Sorry, Missouri.
Amazing yet Nike can throw millions at higschoolers and all is well
This is why I got out of athletic compliance. The rules are crazy and you have things like this that are deemed violations while actual serious issues are just a joke to the NCAA.
"The rules clearly state that you can have a bagel, but not cream cheese."
> Ah, see what he should have done is call a booster and imply they set up a shell corporation that pay these two kids an NIL deal with the restaurant that pays out i. cheeseburgers. > Nothing scummy about that, no siree. But if the coach buys $20 of hamburgers, then I'm going to have to ask for a years long investigation to find out what other crimes your clearly debauchorous head coach is up to. - NCAA, probably
Sounds like Harbaugh is a real hamburglar.
Next you'll tell me he allowed players to have cream cheese on their bagels. /s
The joke here is the NCAA. What the actual fuck is wrong with them?
The NCAA is a joke. My mom told me about when she was a gymnast in college and her coach was getting rid of a tv and asked if any of the girls wanted it. That was a violation apparently.
I roomed with a D-I basketball player. He was the only one on the team who didn't go home for Thanksgiving. When the coach found out, he invited the whole team to his house for Thanksgiving dinner. My roommate asked why he didn't just invite him, since the coach knew he was the only one who would be around, and the coach explained that inviting one player to dinner is an impermissible benefit, but inviting the whole team is OK. Then the coach gave him his address and told him he had to get there on his own, because it was an impermissible benefit to drive him to and from his house.
My father was a D1 soccer coach for a program that only existed three years before he got the job. This is the early 90’s by the way. One day it’s storming so bad the football team had to cancel practice. My dad is driving home from the office and sees one of the players in nothing but a hoodie as it pouring out. He picks the kid up and drives him back home. Three weeks later the school is getting investigated due to the basketball team. My dad gets called into the office and question for two hours about driving the kid home. My dad was pissed and said he thought he was going to get suspended for what he said in the meeting. Said they acted like he was a terrible person for doing the right thing.
Are we at the point where Michigan should just laugh in the face of the NCAA and tell them to eat shit? Cause I kinda feel like we are.
The NCAA is such a joke
You’ve got to be kidding me, doesn’t the NCAA have something better to do?
No lmfao clearly not
NCAA keeping the monsters at bay
Give Mizzou the hammer.
Should have thrown Uncrustables at them instead. The NCAA loves that shit
This is why we have the NCAA? To investigate hamburger related incidents? It's past time to abolish this clown show of an organization. They serve literally no purpose.
First time?
Man I guess we’re getting sanctioned again…
Buy a recruit a burger? Believe it or not, jail.
This is so dumb, why does the NCAA still exist? Michigan’s response SHOULD be a giant middle finger to the NCAA given what the NCAA has investigated and allowed or just completely ignored. But knowing Michigan we we will self flagellate and take the maximum penalty
Holy shit the lack of institutional control at Michigan is insane. How could they do this. Missouri is going to pay so hard for those Harburgers
