I presume you are referring to a contract extension announcement for Harbaugh, correct?
Yes.
And then the scandal breaks wide open. Michigan is due to fall flat on its face.

Rogue weirdo is the phrase. In that game, Michigan scored a whopping two touchdowns before Tug's Thugs assaulted Michigan players.

Stick to the subject.

Why does Harbaugh take off his headphones to hear what this "low-level staffer" is saying? Why exactly is such a person on the Michigan sidelines communicating directly with the head coach, OC, and DC?

The video doesn't show anything surprising. The guy was a sign expert, allegedly. Are you suggesting Michigan would have only won 21-7 if not for the super helpful tips?

EDIT: I just realized Michigan is already up 29-7 (final score) when this video is from with less than three minutes left in the game.

His methodology was going rogue, and it was weird. I'll note that he still has an mcommunity entry, so his employment has not been terminated.

You can tell me that stealing signs is no big deal in the grand scheme of things and I'll agree... you can tell me that this guy isn't the difference between a 6-6 team and a 10-2 team and I'll agree... but you can't tell me that everyone on this staff from top to bottom didn't know exactly what the fuck this guy was doing.

Michigan still has a statue for, and a building named in honor of, a rape enabler. Of course they aren't going to fire someone for merely cheating. Anything for the team, the team, the team.

Noose tightening on cheating Wolverines:
https://www.espn.com/college-football/s ... ional-call

"Collectively, the coaches want the Big Ten to act -- right now," said a source familiar with the call. "What are we waiting on? We know what happened."

The coaches in the Big Ten laid out to Petitti, who was hired in April, just how distinct of a schematic advantage Michigan has held the last three years by illegally obtaining the opposition's signals ahead of time, as has been alleged.

Coaches used words like "tainted," "fraudulent" and "unprecedented" on the call to describe Michigan's signal-stealing scheme, as has been alleged. Much of the call, according to sources, was coaches explaining to Petitti both how it worked and how it impacted them and their programs. Both in-person opponent scouting and using electronic equipment to steal signals are not allowed by NCAA rules.

"People don't understand the seriousness of it," said another source. "How it truly impacted the game plan. To truly know if it's a run or a pass, people don't understand how much of an advantage that was for Michigan."

There was anger interspersed throughout the call, as one source described the sentiment as: "Every game they played is tainted."
