UM should appeal the sanctions. This would enable them to overcome the self-imposed scholarship restrictions before starting any NCAA imposed scholarship restrictions. Why not load up a huge class following self-imposed sanctions? The timeline for an appeal is about 4 months, which would put UM past national signing day.
You think it's worth it for 3 ships? that's all it will gain us in the short term.
There is nothing to lose. They cannot increase the penalty. At worst, the penalty remains the same, but UM would be able to bifurcate its scholarship restrictions and load up in the middle of them.
