Yesterday, we told you that TTUN was being investigated for stealing signals by the NCAA. It was alleged that Michigan had been sending someone to games in advance to scout signals so that they could find out what signals were being used for each play. The Ohio State football program would never!

Now, more details have emerged as to what the NCAA is specifically looking into. Apparently, they are looking into a low-level staffer named Connor Stalions, who has a military background. The NCAA is looking at his computer as well. This is according to ESPN’s Pete Thamel.

The allegation is that TTUN has been stealing signals since 2021. Hmmm. Isn’t that about the time that they actually became good and started winning games? And wait…didn’t TTUN beat the Ohio State football team in 2021 and 2022, right after this started?

Things seem to get fishier and fishier. Stalions allegedly would email programs and try to get access during gameday. His excuse was that he wanted to see how to handle things logistically when that team was facing Michigan. That raised alarms with an unnamed Big Ten team.

This whole thing seems very elaborate and deliberate. If these allegations are proven to be true, there is no way that Jim Harbaugh would survive this. He is already facing more NCAA penalties from recruiting violations that he had during the COVID-19 dead period.

Big Ten teams seem to think this is worse than what the Patriots and Astros did in their respective sports. Not only would Michigan be filming before and during games, but they would then be using that information for an illegal advantage. That’s clearly illegal.

This investigation is not close to being over. This is just the tip of the iceberg. I can’t wait to see where else it goes and what else comes out about it.
