Will Michigan get hammered by NCAA or B1G?

[CJsE]

Allegedly at least 30 B1G games over the last 3 years, multiple people involved sometimes on both sides of the field to record both teams, surveillance video showing scouts recording the sidelines with a smart phone the entire game, probable direct institutional funding for the operation.

Sources: U-M staffer bought tickets at 11 schools

Suspended Michigan staffer Connor Stalions, who is at the center of the NCAA's sign-stealing probe, purchased tickets in his own name for more than 30 games over the past three years at 11 different Big Ten schools, multiple sources told ESPN.

Harbaugh will probably get like a half season suspension then maybe some meaningless other penalties

I sure miss alternating fullbacks bringing in the play from the sideline (pretty much un-hackable) instead of 4 squared poster boards with the with pictures of Thelma, Shaggy, Scooby Doo and the Mystery Machine with goofy 4th string QBs in red hats going into spasms...24 dive on two...

 

[MorningCoffee13]

Michigan is now researching the names of every StubHub buyer of tickets for their games to see if any had affiliations with a B10 school they weren’t playing that week and seeing which staff they GA’d for. All they have to do is find one guy and the issue is done.

Just wait until they release the videos of the UM GA partying with the college girls at those 11 schools, making it rain with his U of M credit card. Larry Eustachy style.

Or maybe that's just what I would have been doing if I were him.

Boy, I don't know. According to what I've heard repeated over and over about Sandusky, you can't hold the HC accountable for members of his staff. Is this guy saying Jim knew?

 

[NKSplitter]

"Sources confirmed to ESPN that Stalions purchased tickets on both sides of the stadium -- across from each bench -- for Ohio State's game with Penn State on Saturday. Michigan plays both teams in upcoming weeks. According to sources, the tickets purchased by Stalions were not used Saturday."

Not that it mattered at that point since it they were well on their way to getting caught; but it would have been funny if instead of leaving the tickets unused, that they off loaded them on a pair of unsuspecting randoms to deal with whatever questioning the stadium security team might have had lined up.

 

[pittdan77]

It's sort of funny watching all of the B1G fan bases weigh in on this after most of them have witnessed some pretty heinous stuff go on at their own schools and loudly defended it all.

It would be humorous that decades of university-condoned and enabled anal rape of hundreds of small children would be equated with some Michigan flunky going to Indiana-Rutgers games. If it weren’t such a ghastly, inappropriate comparison that is.

Yet another demonstrated fact that 99.9% of Penn State supporters don’t deserve to be alive

I thought this was a great response.....
" Didn't having the top defensive coordinator in the country, who should have been in prison for raping little boys had school officials acted accordingly, give "you" (since you implicated yourself with the "us") a competitive advantage? "

St penn got a wrist slap for all the years of Sandusky molesting children. It's called lack of institional control and their bowl ban was reduced from 4 to 2. Plzzzzzzzzz

 

[TheSpecialSauce]

Michigan will get a slap on the wrist. If it were a school like Pitt or SMU, then it would be a much bigger punishment.

 

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

Won't Harbaugh just flee to the NFL to avoid dealing with this?

[Dan1911]

I fully anticipate the Chippewas of Central Michigan to receive the death penalty for this heinous act.

 

[Dointhatrag]

Exactly how are you really going to stop people from taping the picture panels they put up and recording the play or defensive set in this technology day and age?

 

[Pitt79]

Since when is it illegal to send coaches to other teams games to scout them?

Also, sign stealing isnt even against the rules, is it? Its just like an ethical violation. I hate when PSU people say the Sandusky thing wasnt a football issue or it didnt give them a competitive advantage. Yes it did. By covering it up, it enabled them to keep their "good name" and not have the scandal affect recruiting

 

[Panther Holla]

UM will sacrifice some low level stooge, receive a fine and a stern letter of reprimand and that will be it.TOO BIG TO FAIL.

In that sick clown's world it's somewhat comparable going to a game to watch other team signs vs. covering up a coach violating innocent children.

 

[Pitt grad and dad]

Next question.

It was common practice for decades to send a scout to watch the next opponent on the schedule, and return with notes. Is that still legal or was it also banned?

Sign stealing when you aren't playing that team is 100% against the rules.
You can't send people to opponents' games to scout for the last 30 years, let alone steal signs.
You certainly can't use technology to record opposing team's sidelines when you are not playing them.

Schools are provided broadcast film and I believe for years every P5 school has has access to the All-22 footage for each game. Also the B1G has had rules about providing all-22 footage to upcoming opponents for at least a decade. So there is no excuse to send scouts to games other than to steal signs.

It's going to be hard for the B1G and/or NCAA to suspend Harbaugh when he's coaching the Chicago Bears or LA Chargers next year.

A reminder that USC received a harsher penalty for Reggie Bush's family getting gifts from a prospective agent than Penn State did for covering up children being raped in their locker room.

change your signals. If your are stupid enough not to change them, then so be it.

 

[The Ole Six-Fiver]

Only the percentage. Maybe it is slightly lower. I’ve met a couple PSU alum over the years seriously disturbed by what happened and they cut their ties. But only a couple.

Far far far more thought (and still think) nothing was wrong with it at all. They don’t even deny it, even the horrific physical act. The position is, so what that he did? The insinuation was and still is that “a Penn State football hero is God (capital G) and can do whatever he dam well pleases”. Sorry, but people thinking that way are better off not being in existence any longer, and it’s too bad they ever existed in the first place.

I don’t admire Michigan but I’m rooting for them to get nothing, only so they remain stronger than Great Satan. If Michigan gets even the slightest tap for this, lawyer the hell up and begin suing the NCAA, cite the PSU precedent, even better site the UNC precedent (UNC got absolutely nothing at all as a punishment for its incredulous fake-school-for-moron-athletes scam, correct?

I wonder if all of those minors understand that they weren’t being raped. They were just having their facts distorted.

Fact … it happened yes
Fact .. it was 7 victims, 4 lied about what really happened in attempt to get money. So the hundreds I seen posted
Fact .. the youngest was 15 years old so the the little kids people like to say it was.
Fact .. Jerry retired from football in late 80’s so not on the staff.

Fact … The FBI cleared the university of any cover up
Fact .. Jerry was investigated by the State Attorney General’s Office and cleared of charges prior to the shower incident

Plenty of things you can poke fun at but making things up to seem worse is just funny
