Michigan alum Desmond Howard ripped ESPN’s Paul Finebaum for his continued disdain of the program’s football team due to its ongoing sign-stealing investigation.
The Wolverines (13–0) defeated Iowa in the Big Ten championship game to capture their third conference crown, earning the No. 1 spot in the College Football Playoff as a result.
However, Finebaum previously said if Michigan wins the CFP national title in January, the Wolverines’ championship would be “tainted” and that he would “refuse” to recognize the program as national champions. On Tuesday, Howard appeared on the Rich Eisen Show to discuss Finebaum’s comments.
