Georgia head coach Kirby Smart is asked directly about the reports about Michigan stealing signs.

Smart: "There's nothing I remember about the Michigan game (2021 playoff semifinal) that makes me think that [happened]"

I’ve seen this rumored to be Tennessee signals given to South Carolina to make sure Tennessee didn’t get into playoffs as one loss team….

Moreover, a source with direct knowledge indicated to FootballScoop that Michigan may have attempted to assist the opposition of a potential CFP opponent in an effort to disrupt that team's potential path to the Playoff.

I gotta agree with Deion here. Heck, how many of us look at a wildcat formation or 4th and 1 under center and know what’s coming? You still gotta stop it. Of all the things out there regarding cheating and scandals in the NCAA, this feels really stupid. There’s no difference in this and just TV-Oing an opponent’s game and rewatching all weekend long to learn their formations. Harbaugh is a dbag, but this is something I just don’t get what the big deal is about.

I don't disagree in a scenario as you mention. There are those plays that everyone in the building knows what is coming and how does it play out? The example you give though is not the issue here. The problem is what a defensive coordinator does on normal plays that isn't certain what is coming, versus what he does when he knows what's coming. He might see pass play as a guess but with right information he knows its a run to right. Now he makes sure linebackers move that direction and more importantly brings the safety up with no intent on concern for second level of defense. He can come up in the collision zone and severely hamper the offenses chances.

This is how USCjr will justify firing Beamer for cause and not paying the buyout after they go 4-8.

I doubt it.

I would be curious though if Michigan "scouted" Clemson also and provided the Lamecocks their signals?

That would make that last two game stretch of the season last year make a great deal more sense for SC.

Either way, even if evidence comes out pointing at SC explicitly I don't think they would use that as a reason to get rid of Beamer. Hell man, those two games are all Lamecock fans have to fall back on. It's the entire reason for most of them existing

The SC administration can't take away the sunshine for an entire state

All the reports (if true) show this was so blatantly open that either Harbaugh is the dumbest person on planet earth if this is something that nobody does OR that this is common practice that Michigan didn’t care enough to hide it. And we know have multiple coaches going on record basically saying this isn’t a big deal.

why are you stanning for Michigan? 🙄 It's not a principled objection: you are misrepresenting facts and completely ignoring that this may involve us directly.

Weird priorities.

It was reported Michigan had a line in their budget for opponent scouting from which they paid the expenses of these scouts. If true, it’s LOIC & everything else NCAA can throw at them.

With the amount of money he has been paid since coming to UM, he is way overrated.

He was so bad at one point that they cut his salary in half. And then all of a sudden, they have back to back big 10 titles and playoff appearances. If there was only some event, such as maybe hiring a specific person, or implementing a certain new division to their program that could explain the sudden change in their success…but since he claims none of that happened, he is overrated until he wins something.

Probably already been pointed out but Clemson and Tennessee were both potential playoff teams that both would have been in Michigan’s way if they lost to OSU. Ironically I would bet before the matchup Michigan would’ve wanted TCU in over both of those programs.

Michigan should have steamrolled TCU but they turned the ball over too much.
