Michigan spied on Vols last year

Whole situation may have been different. Maybe Hooker never tears his ACL in a different situation. Ok, I’m down a rabbit hole.

You’re absolutely right. If this is true, the whole flow of the game was changed. The acl tear likely — almost certainly — wouldn’t have happened.

With Milton?

Possibly, injury may not have happened.
But also with a better OL w/ Darnell Wright & Jerome Carvin, plus WRs who could actually be relied on to both get open and catch the ball in Hyatt & Tillman. Keyton has regressed in a larger role this year without those two. Thornton has been beyond cheeks and needs to be sitting on his.

If it is proven Michigan gave info about our signals to SC that should warrant the death penalty for both schools. And it also should result in a many-millions lawsuit from us to them. I can’t think of a similar precedent where one college team directly and willfully interfered so massively with another team’s season and future. We would have been in the playoff. We potentially could have won it.

Let’s be real, they won’t do crap to Michigan.

Georgia may have received info from UM. Already being implied in another thread on here - just makes sense considering they struggled with Mizzou and then owned us.

Prime opines on sign stealing: 'Still got to stop it'

Colorado's Deion Sanders doesn't "buy into" the benefits of knowing teams' signs: "You can have someone's whole game plan ... you've still got to stop it."
www.google.com www.google.com

Kind of pathetic the lengths we'll go to making excuses for getting our ass beat by another team. Spencer Rattler was on point that night. We got beat plain and simple. Ridiculous the troll jobs our fan base will fall for. This one ranks up there with "Nico being contacted by other schools".

Michigan is dead to me, even moreso than they were before all this

You guys may have noted from some of my posts that I married into a Michigan football family. Let me tell you, it’s the worst. BUT, since all of this came out, it’s like Christmas every day. The slow leak of daily bombshells is absolutely making this one of the best weeks of college football that I’ve ever had, and I get the feeling that it’s going to get a lot better.

Technically it was a non contact injury. Unless Michigan shared notes with the turf.

Yeah . . . unless they coordinated with whatever company dumped all that sand to slow down the field, I don't think there's much of a case.

I've never seen a televised game that had a camera angle that showed the signals from start to finish.

Televised sure.

But from what I read, most teams post game film from the booth to film exchange websites for scouting purposes. So they should have access to most of the same information they would get from in-person scouting, unless there's a funny angle and you can't zoom in or something.

Game film is basically zoomed in right before the play starts and right after it ends. No staff worth anything would ever trade film if their signals were visible on the film. These collegiate film crews are legit. It's not like high school where you pay a kid or a dad with a hot dog to go stand on top of the press box. That is one layer to why all programs go through scrimmages at the stadium in order to make sure all aspects of the game day operation work smoothly (including film practices).

You might be able to pick up a signal or two watching a game on tv, but not anything robust or super reliable.

Do the teams in the SEC have an operation anywhere near as elaborate as what Michigan is accused of doing?
Click to expand...
don't know they haven't been caught yet. Elaborate is a strong word....sounds like it was simple to me and the guy that did it was also simple enough to talk too much.
