With the NCAA investigating Michigan for sign stealing, we surveyed coaches from around the country to see what they thought.
entered the Florida House of Representatives, he was a former high school football player working on the equipment staff for the Auburn football team in the early 2000s. But his responsibilities extended beyond loading and unloading the bus.
Last Thursday, the Big Ten confirmed that the NCAA is investigating Michigan for an alleged off-campus sign-stealing operation. Coach Jim Harbaugh denied any knowledge or involvement in plotting to steal opponents' playcalling signals by sending representatives to their games. The supposed ringleader of the operation, an analyst named Connor Stalions with a military background, was suspended by Michigan with pay, pending the outcome of the investigation.
But another coach with Big Ten and SEC experience asked what the big deal was in practical terms. Between the TV broadcast, coaches' tape and what fans film with their phones and post online, the coach said there's more than enough footage that's accessible without ever leaving the office."Anything that happens in the public eye hasn't gone too far," the coach said."To be honest, I can watch TV copy two to three games and get everything I need.
Another Big Ten coach added of Stalions:"Everybody knows he's the guy." But he and other coaches, both within and outside the conference, said any scouting operation involves more than one person. When LSU played Clemson in the 2020 College Football Playoff, sources say the staff suspected Clemson of sending people to scout them in the SEC championship game and Peach Bowl. Brent Venables, then Clemson's defensive coordinator, has long been the focal point of sign-stealing speculation, according to multiple sources, though no one has publicly accused him of anything illegal.
Some teams push the boundaries more than others, but ultimately coaches say it's not hard to tell when you've been skunked. Berry's frustration built slowly over the course of a half-hour conversation, starting with mild annoyance over coaches' shenanigans and ending with outright anger over the NCAA's inability to take up the solution staring them in the face.You don't want to use a speaker in the helmet like the NFL does with quarterbacks? Fine.
