Louisville's Woes Continue

I didn't see this updated about the latest in regards to the Louisville scandal. Since this could have a very decisive outcome in regards to the 2013 National Championship that was decided by the refs, I thought this was releveant (enough) for the board.

The overview is that former recruit JaQuan Lyle, who was mentioned in the book, indeed confirmed to NCAA investigators that the gist of what was said in the book really happened.

Also local media (same media outlet as above) is also reporting that a former UL player says that strippers were present in the dorms at least one time.

5. “The NCAA is so mad at Kentucky it will probably slap another two years probation on Cleveland State.’’ Tarkanian uttered the famous quip after Kentucky and coach Eddie Sutton found themselves in the NCAA crosshairs. But the line has stood the test of time, emblematic of not only Tark’s battles with the organization but also of the long-held belief that the NCAA practices selective enforcement.

This story is awesome, but my favorite part about it, by far, is the Kentucky fans pointing and laughing at Louisville when they have to know they're living on borrowed time before they finally get caught doing something similar.

It will be interesting to watch this play out, but I'm not seeing how it changes the outcome of the national championship game. (As OP implied) Even if somehow the NCAA vacated the win, they won't give Michigan the victory.

There's no implying of anything. There is a very real possibility that the title will be vacated  if the NCAA feels that this is a big enough issue. Vacated titles have traditionally never gone to the runner up. However, since the officiating in that game was a complete farce and very suspect,  it would be sweet justice for them to lose their title.
