[suspenseful music playing] [reporter 1] According to Yahoo! Sports,
the NCAA is currently investigating Jim Harbaugh's
Michigan Wolverines football program. [Hole] So I was sitting in my bed.
It was a Thursday night. I got the push notification from Yahoo! saying that Michigan
was being investigated for something. [reporter 2] Yahoo! Sports reported
the team allegedly sent… [reporter 3] …unnamed individuals to attend games of possible
College Football Playoff opponents… [reporter 4] …and stealing
their offensive and defensive signals. I open it up on my phone,
and I see Connor Stalions' name, and I'm like, "That's my guy."
Like, "They're trying to get my boy." [reporter 5] One of the centerpieces
of this investigation is a low-level Michigan staffer
by the name of Connor Stalions. A former Marine.
He was educated at the Naval Academy. [music continues] [man] I started reporting
into the Stalions situation shortly after the news broke
that the NCAA was investigating this. [tense music playing] Like most other people probably initially
assumed, "This can't be a real human being 'cause that name is just too perfect." [reporter 6] There were some comparisons
to 2007 Patriots and SpyGate. [reporter 7] They think it's more serious.
Like with the Astros. Like what happened with the Patriots.
