No he said “it depends on what the meaning of the word ‘is’ is”

Which is actually a better comparison to Michigan.

If you say Michigan is cheating. Then you have to define ‘is.’

Is Michigan cheating in the championship game? Maybe not.

Is Michigan cheating during 2023 to help them get to the championship game? Yes.
