Skunkbear Signal Stealing Scandal

[Giddyup]

To think they didn’t send him out there, u’d have to be slow

 

[Riddickulous]

If all this is true, it doesn't matter if anyone else knew or not IMO. Michigan still benefited greatly from the cheating and should be penalized for it.

 

[stpeteirish]

Sad truth is Harbaugh has already publicly denied knowledge of the scheme and Stallions has been jettisoned. Unless Stallions or another guy in the chain suddenly decides the truth needs to be told there's no way to tie this to Jimmy H.

They'll probably put Stallions on the Trump ex wife program, a check a month for life unless you talk. It works. Jimmy's a God and needs to be protected for the overall good of M world.

Yeah but the penalties aren't much if its just one guy who left the reservation. And you won't be able to prove it was an institution plan unless someone talks, and no one will.

Please burn it to hell. I still have hate dreams of JGay Mccarthy's staged post playoff losses photo op.

I don’t think Harbaugh can go with the “didn’t know about this defense” given the number of pictures of Stalions reading play sheets the size of the Bible in Harbaugh’s hip pocket at various games. The staffer noted as a “recruiting analyst” just happens to have play sheets and is near the head coach during games?

Interesting…

How embarrassing. Imagine feeling the need to cheat to beat the absolute dreck that's on their schedule.

This is so much better than I was expecting, evidence left and right. Harbaugh is going to get hammered for this and regardless this puts a damper on the run they’ve been on lately.

Michigan is about to be the Astros of college football, hated by everyone and im here for it

I am curious besides penalties for Michigan if NFL style helmets where the plays are radio'd in will come out of this. Seems like the logical way to skrt around the cheaters and those that live in the grey area.

Why is it that college does not use those?

Not all schools can afford them?

I’ve always thought they’d eventually make their way to college.

Yes, it’s a cost issue

Athletic piece from last year.

For a long time, the concern was about the logistics and cost. The NFL is one organization of 32 teams owned by billionaires, while college football at the Football Bowl Subdivision level has 10 conferences and 131 teams. Implementing it has been considered too complicated or expensive.

So why hasn’t it happened? The SEC had conversations about it last spring, but there was disagreement among coaches, a source familiar with the conversations said. There’s also a concern about helmet liability and warranty. Sources in each Power 5 conference confirmed there have been brief discussions at some point in recent years in their leagues.

Another concern among some SEC coaches wasn’t expressed publicly but has been suspected privately: Headsets would eliminate the ability to steal signals. The concept of stealing signals is an open secret in coaching, and some programs have elaborate operations. In a sport in which most rule changes benefit the offense, this could put the sides on the same level of an issue.

Told of that suspicion, David Shaw said it was comforting to hear someone admit that stealing signals exists. Bielema brought it up as well.

“There are certain places that put a premium on stealing signals, and that gets some people known as great play callers, but you can be a great play caller if you know what the other team is doing,” Shaw said. “For me, this is one of those balancing things. You might not be able to get all the information you want, now you have to call the game with some doubt and trust in your preparation and your players.”

Athletic piece from this evening. Bork games to allow coach to player comms finally

Bowl season to include coach-player communication tech trial

The specifics of what type of trial run will take place during bowl season are still under discussion among FBS conference administrators.

We should all give thanks to be living witness to such a beautiful downfall.

Fuck U of M

 

[Fbolt]

I'll wait until the downfall happens. I have zero faith in the NCAA.

How else are u gonna shake someone down?

If it was recruiting violations related I’d be right there with you. However, if they can prove this was a coordinated cheating operation they have to hammer them.

A lot of schools cheat on the trail, to some degree. Therefore they don’t actually want that stuff enforced.

Very few if any programs blatantly cheat like this. They’ll all want this enforced.

The thing is, Michigan is ALREADY under investigation for their recruiting violations during COVID and Harbaugh has already been admonished for cheeseburger-gate.

This infraction is the most egregious of any of them and being the third instance in three years seriously could point in the direction of LOIC.

Holy hell, that is crazy. They have the equivalent of a play sheet for deciphering the other team's signs.

Hey Jesse, it’s laminated, not lamented. Although, maybe it’s lamented for Meatchicken now that’s it’s in public view.

Michigan should be banned from any playoff this year, all wins vacated from the last 3 years, banned from any playoffs for the next 3 years and lose 10 scholarships each year for the next 3 years.
