Jim Harbaugh’s Michigan football has been implicated in a massive sign-stealing operation headed by staffer Connor Stalions.

News continues to emerge about Michigan’s alleged transgressions, including sending staff to other Big Ten games to record sidelines.

Jim Harbaugh’s Michigan football team is being investigated by the NCAA for a massive scandal that involves unauthorized scouting and illicit recording of opposing sidelines. The school has already suspended staffer Connor Stalions, the analyst central to the alleged sign-stealing scandal, but the story has taken on a life of its own since being broken Oct. 19 by Yahoo Sports.

In the week that has followed, many high-profile coaches have been asked if they were aware of the Michigan Wolverines’ operation. Furthermore, concerns about the football team’s potential involvement in the purported operation have been raised by reports of tangible evidence discovered on Michigan’s computers and through stadium surveillance.

This is all in the midst of a dream season for the No. 3 Wolverines, who have dominated every team they’ve played en route to an 10-0 (7-0 Big Ten) record so far this year.

Per reports, sources at 12 different Big Ten schools have confirmed through ticket sales tracking that Stalions bought tickets to their games since 2021 under his own name. He also reportedly got tickets to potential College Football Playoff opponents’ games, per Yahoo Sports.

It all added up to Harbaugh being suspended for the final three games of the regular season, including the season-finale against Ohio State.

One of the fascinating angles of the story is the sheer firehose of information that has been disseminated since news of the allegations broke. As this story continues to develop, here are all the latest updates to the Ann Arbor saga:

Jim Harbaugh, who dropped a temporary restraining order against the Big Ten and commissioner Tony Petitti on Thursday, said that both pieces of evidence had altered Michigan’s strategy in opposing the conference’s decision to suspend him for three games.

Additionally, Michigan fired Chris Partridge, the linebackers coach, on Friday. The report states that Partridge is not thought to have known about Stalions’ involvement before the news of it broke. Partridge did, however, allegedly take part in the post-event destruction of evidence.

“Effective today, Chris Partridge has been relieved of his duties as a member of the Michigan Football staff,” the statement read from a team spokesperson. “Rick Minter will serve as the team’s linebackers coach.”

In a statement Friday, the Big Ten announced it will be suspending Harbaugh for the rest of the regular season. That includes games against Penn State, Maryland and Ohio State.

According to the suspension, Harbaugh is only allowed to coach during the week but not during the actual games.
