Though there are variables on how much teams get from football postseason revenue, sources expect that number alone, based on past Big Ten income and projections, to be more than $20 million. But the intent was clear -- to gain a substantial competitive advantage," Norman Bay, the chief hearing officer for the NCAA committee on infractions panel, said at a news conference Friday. The NCAA committee said in its report that although Michigan's violations would make a multiyear postseason ban appropriate, it aimed not to punish current Wolverines athletes based on its constitution. The NCAA committee concluded that Stalions "orchestrated" the advance-scouting operation designed to aid in the deciphering of opponents' signals during the 2021, 2022 and 2023 seasons. There is a major distinction between Moore's suspension and those Harbaugh served to open and close the 2023 regular season.
