would love to know the actual truth here. Even in the best case scenario, Tucker is a scumbag who cheats on his wife.
Yep, no upside for this dude personally. He either a scummy husband who cheated; or he is a scummy husband who jerks off ( and cheats) on Zoom to a woman who was a victim of sexual assault all while she looked on horrified.

Wisconsin is such an interesting team. Was wondering how they would approach this season and it appears they're trying to do the Longo offense with a Wisconsin roster. So far this season it has looked kind of weird.

Makes me a bit more at ease that ND ended up getting Parker in at OC in the end.

Maryland at Ohio State is a sneaky good game I think. Looking forward to seeing how they match up.

Have to assume there is some very credible evidence this happened...if they went to the trouble of opening up an investigation and leaking it to the media:
Sources: NCAA investigating Michigan football for alleged rule violations related to sign stealing

Very interested to see what comes of this...
The rumor that popped up on reddit (notably, prior to any release about the investigation) was that Ryan Day had hired a former FBI agent and they have "proof."

Or maybe the guy who lied to the NCAA, and then lied publicly about the nature of the NCAA investigation, isn't particularly concerned with honesty and will happily ignore rules that he doesn't like.

(Yes, I know it's not your tweet. Well, I assume it's not your tweet).

they get their signals crossed up for this one? Maybe the decoder ring malfunctioned?

Eh, if Day actually turned them in and he's actually right I don't have an issue with it.

Michigan made kind of a dramatic turnaround without significantly upgrading their talent base. I think a significant sign-stealing operation makes complete sense as an explanation.

Last year the most points Michigan allowed in a game was 23 (to Ohio State). They got into a bowl game with an unfamiliar opponent and no opportunity to advance scout in the same way: and they give up 51.

Yeah, I'm getting the impression that Ryan Day is soft. If Michigan has someone sitting in section 117 at Rutgers and the NCAA is choosing to investigate this, I think Ryan Day and the NCAA are even less useful than I would have thought before.

I haven't read all the stories but is the idea that they simply send people to games of their upcoming opponents to sit in the stands and try and figure out what the codes on those silly signs everyone holds up mean?
That might violate the Marquis de Queensbury Rules of College Football but it hardly seems a major NCAA violation. Even if it's Michigan doing it.

Sources said the NCAA enforcement staff's level of interest in Stalions is so significant it sought access to his computer as part of its investigation. Sources indicated that the process is underway, although it's uncertain what investigators will find.

Attempts by ESPN to reach Stalions were not returned. Michigan athletic director Warde Manuel did not return a request seeking comment.
