College GameDay boycott? UM fans propose skipping show over sign-stealing investigation
ESPN’s College GameDay is back in Ann Arbor for Week 13 to be in attendance for The Game. According to ESPN’s Bill Hofheimer, it will be the 10th broadcast of the popular pre-game show from The Game and the 15th all-time visit to a Michigan home game.
However, the Michigan fanbase is not entirely sold on supporting the idea of College GameDay being on campus. In response to the announcement, some Michigan fans have called for a boycott of the pre-game show in response to some of ESPN’s reporting related to the ongoing sign-stealing investigation.
Other fans have pointed out that a number of networks and pre-game shows will also be on hand, so fans have their choice of pre-game show sets to check out. One fan even recommended fans stop by FOX’s Big Noon set to boo at Urban Meyer as a part of the boycott of ESPN’s show.
Michigan fans should go boo Urban at Big Noon Kickoff and completely boycott the Gameday set https://t.co/wtstyXs88B

So now ESPN, Fox and I think Barstool will be there. I can’t imagine it’ll be a big turn out at Gameday for Michigan fans… Given how they’ve reported on everything https://t.co/FU797RVWIo

Damn, was really hoping the university would let every outlet come to Ann Arbor except ESPN
Can’t wait for Pat McAfee and Paul Finebaum to sit on campus and call us cheaters and say how even if we win, we should be disqualified from further competition 👍 https://t.co/xuwKXjaLDB

Absolutely under no circumstances should anyone show up for this. Stay away. What ESPN has done to harm Michigan over the last three weeks is inexcusable. https://t.co/AbJK5gnPJv
