What do you guys think Conor Stalions' user name is on mgoblog?
He wouldn’t waste his time over there. They are licking his balls… for the most part. It has gotten clear to most they are in big boo-boo… but some still licking the programs balls.

Glad Stoops said it. There is a difference with trying to figure out what the offense is doing in game and adjusting your defense to it and committing espionage to be able to know exactly what their calls are. And I'm so glad that he is pointing out how that isn't normal. I constantly hate the talking heads that go "this happens everywhere". Comments like those are so often made in ignorance, and they downplay the severity of rule breaking if not outright encourage it. Even if bad things do happen everywhere, you should stand steadfast against it.
you have to remember that networks aren’t just letting their talking heads say whatever they want.
Not a great look for the "he was a rogue agent" narrative when he's in the team locker room holding the B10 trophy. And if there's anything close to true about them sharing signs with South Carolina, it's curtains.

This could get a lot uglier (not that it isn't already). Especially if Stalions guy flips.
I would highly doubt someone as committed as Stalions is flipping.

OMG IM just now seeing this. Does this implicate Beamer too?

I’ll be at the game against Pitt on Saturday, dressed in an overcoat and hat, with sunglasses and binoculars around my neck. Not sure if I want to tape a blue ‘M’ to my hat or not. What do you guys think? Too on the nose?
Narduzzi would still blame ND.

Too bad Narduzzi isnt in the big 10.

I think it would be great if everyone seated on the 50 yard line of both sides of the stadium did this. Be a crime of you didn't...... LOL

the only outcome of all of us this will be microphones in QB and defensive leaders helmets next season like the NFL has. Saban was saying this on McAfee show and hes dead right.

That will not be the only outcome. I think it is plausible Harbaugh has already coached his last game at Michigan.

If it is true South Carolina makes a lot of sense. Coming into those games they had 4 losses, two of which where unranked teams and then they finish the season taking down #5 Tennessee and follow with defeating #8 Clemson...
Also, their DC (Clayton White) coached under Harbaugh at Stanford.

I have not let my heart follow this closely or look into the details. Just feels like Michigan is the luckiest program in CFB and will find a way out. So my understanding of "what" took place, how many times/years it spanned, etc., is near nil.

But from what little I understand, wouldn't all the players in the two-deep be aware of this too? The one video I saw was the OSU one where the sign came in and the players all started pointing into the air. Or perhaps the cheating coach didn't tell him "why" he was calling a certain play, and that reaction isn't evidence the players are in on the scheme too.

Anyways, I ask because if ~30 players are aware of this, there's 0% chance this doesn't come full circle and fast. Kids don't keep secrets.

Saw an article on the Athletic where their source said this has been known in the coaching circles for a while.

Also, I just saw someone point out that Shane Beamer caught a $25,000 fine for accepting an opponent's game plan in the old WakeyLeaks mess.

South Carolina is 2-5 and 50% of their wins are against Furman. Beamer is going to get extra double fired if he's implicated in all this.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — NCAA investigators interviewed members of Michigan football coach Jim Harbaugh's staff Thursday about a sign-stealing scheme, a person familiar with the governing body's visit told The Associated Press.

I am a bit shocked by this. The NCAA is moving much quicker than normal.

If Michigan was ranked 18th, they would be taking their time.

Michigan making it into the CFP with the NCAA dropping the hammer next year. Extremely Problematic

Michigan making it into the CFP and winning the National Championship with the NCAA dropping the hammer next year. Huge Cluster Fuck.

NCAA just can't let that happen. The uproar would be deafening.
