The Buckeye Scoop podcast dives deep into mounting legal and NCAA scrutiny surrounding the University of Michigan football program, focusing on the ongoing investigation into the Corum LLC scandal and the potential for multiple lawsuits. Hosts Nevada Buck and Trendsy, joined by investigative journalist Intrinsic (Justin Spiro), break down how Spiro’s meticulous, evidence-driven reporting is uncovering a pattern of systemic cheating, including illegal in-person scouting, cover-ups, and the use of an ineligible player through a shell LLC. Despite Michigan’s national championship in basketball and the NCAA’s decision not to impose a postseason ban—citing a desire not to penalize student-athletes—the hosts argue the case remains damning, with clear violations of NCAA bylaws. They emphasize that the lack of vacated wins does not equate to innocence, and that the real damage lies in the erosion of trust and fairness in college sports. The episode also critiques the NCAA’s inconsistent enforcement, contrasting Michigan’s case with Iowa’s self-reported tampering, and underscores Spiro’s role as a relentless 'wrecking ball' bringing long-overdue accountability. The hosts express confidence that Spiro’s work—backed by FOIA requests, documented evidence, and airtight legal reasoning—will eventually lead to justice, regardless of how long it takes. They highlight the moral and cultural implications of the scandal, arguing that winning does not excuse cheating, and that the players and coaches involved must come clean. The episode closes with a mix of humor, pop culture references, and a reminder to stay engaged with the Buckeye Scoop community, while reinforcing the belief that truth and transparency are essential to preserving the integrity of college football.
Justin Spiro is conducting a thorough, evidence-based investigation into Michigan’s Corum LLC scandal, with hard proof that both Corum and Michigan knew about the ineligible player status.
The NCAA’s decision not to impose a postseason ban despite a 'level one aggravated case' is seen as a failure of accountability, driven by a desire to avoid penalizing student-athletes.
Michigan’s illegal sign-stealing operation, involving a 'spy network' called the KGB, was unprecedented and clearly intended to gain a competitive advantage.
The lack of vacated wins does not mean Michigan didn’t cheat—cheating is still cheating, and the 2023 national title is tainted by systemic dishonesty.
Spiro’s work is methodical and airtight; he has never made a false claim, and his past investigations (e.g., Sherrod Moore, Central Michigan) have all proven accurate.

Opening Hype & Michigan Lawsuit Tease
“The only reason you did not get vacated wins, according to the COI, is because the laptop and the phone were thrown into the bottom of the lake.”
Introducing Justin Spiro: The Investigative Wrecking Ball
“He knows they're guilty. Like he has the evidence like recordings and like he has it.”
The Corum LLC & Ineligible Player Scandal
“You cheated. You're guilty. That 23 natty is tainted. It's a fratty.”
NCAA’s Hypocrisy: Iowa vs. Michigan
The hosts contrast the NCAA’s handling of Iowa’s self-reported tampering (which led to vacated wins) with Michigan’s case, where no such penalties were applied despite far worse violations. They argue this inconsistency reveals a broken system that protects winners.
The KGB Spy Network & Evidence Destruction
The hosts present documented proof from the NCAA report showing Michigan’s extensive, illegal in-person scouting operation—dubbed the 'KGB'—with 56 instances across 52 games. They emphasize that the destruction of evidence (phones thrown in lakes) prevented the NCAA from determining the full impact.
“You don't put together a network of individuals called the KGB... unless you intend to gain a substantial competitive advantage.”
“You cheated. You're guilty. That 23 natty is tainted. It's a fratty.”
“Winning is the ultimate deodorant stick over any scandal, over any sexual harassment, sexual assault, I mean cheating, whatever it is, as long as you're winning, it's okay.”
