You would be right in today's world...but check the facts. My statement is based on fact 120 years ago. They were also a leader in creating a slush fund at least a decade prior to Illinois getting penalized for copying them as well as Purdue who also operated an Illegal slush fund at the time. Most recent are the Fab Five scandal and Rodriquez breaking practice limit rules from day one of his tenure. At Michigan, the consummate "Michigan Man" is bred to take advantage of any way win...and not by working harder to become more adept at your sport than your opponent. Shortcuts are the norm.
Michigan may or may not have been the first to cheat, but they were among the first. It is documented.
