"Michigan Football Scandal: FBI Investigation Reveals Jim Harbaugh's Role in Sign-Stealing Scheme"

The University of Michigan's football team is facing a sign-stealing scandal, with a staffer named Connor Stalions accused of buying tickets to games against conference and potential College Football Playoff opponents to gain an advantage. Stalions has been suspended, and the NCAA is investigating. Head coach Jim Harbaugh denies involvement. Stalions allegedly scouted 12 different Big Ten schools and used electronics and television broadcasts to further the scheme. The NCAA is looking into the violation of the rule prohibiting off-campus, in-person scouting of future opponents in the same season. Other teams, such as LSU and TCU, have experienced Michigan's sign-stealing tendencies in the past. The scandal was revealed when an outside investigative firm provided videos and documents to the NCAA, prompting an investigation.
