This could end up being close to a billion dollar settlement. 800 victims...and that's not even counting the countless amount who haven't said anything. Because typically with sexual assault, especially male victims...most never say anything. We're one major player coming out away from the barn door being broken down.
The thing that can't be over stated is the mental blow this is to UM. There's not a more arrogant university in this nation, academically or athletically. It oozes out of Ann Arbor. Leaders and best. Bo teaching everyone about leadership. His name is gonna be taken off everything when this is over, and his statue will be taken down. And I'm sure some will yell "cancel culture" but...this is decades of abuse swept under the rug. If you couldn't protect children and young men who you were pledged to take care of...how can you EVER be considered a leader or role model?
Bo, the aura of leadership and being better...that's literally all Michigan has left. We don't win the Big Ten, we don't compete for national titles, we don't even go to the playoff. This is all we got. This is going to tank the brand for a long time, and force them to bring an outsider in to fix it. Harbaugh likely gone after the season regardless.
