I don't think signal stealing is illegal per se. The issue is that there are ways you can do it that are legal, and ways that aren't.

Clemson is that dude who can count cards naturally and is able to get a slight upper hand in Vegas. Michigan is using a hidden card counting device on his person and it appears might have just been caught with it by the pit boss.

Could have sworn it was Venables. It's actually not illegal to steal signals in-game unless you do it electronically. It is absolutely not allowed to send people off-campus to scout. It's a bit unclear to what extent Michigan was doing this, but The Athletic mentioned that the Big Ten has video evidence showing Michigan had knowledge of what play the opposing team was going to run.

Harbaugh's done a tremendous job of keeping Michigan relevant despite the most pathetic schedule ever. Just enough "trouble" to stay in the spotlight, yet none that incites real risk. Well played by scum.

It was Venables - probably still does it.

It's the reason Tommy didn't get our offense into their formations till very late in the count the year we beat them when Lawrence sat out.

Sounds very Patriots + Belichick-esque :mad:

There is no precedent for what the investigation + punishment of this would look like, right?

I believe it was connected to Venables specifically.

Does anybody around here remember the rumors than Alabama had ND's signals in the 2012 game?

Well the Bama OL after the game said the ND defense was so basic and understandable that by just watching game tape they knew all ND’s adjustments and thus it was easy for them to counter everything ND showed them
