I have this memory of a puff piece airing before a Stanford game, and I can't find any evidence it ever existed. Starting to wonder if I'm just losing it.

It was about an autistic grad student while Jimmy was there. He did gameday analysis and was supposedly a wizard at guessing opponent play calls...
It definitely happened. Don't remember the details but it's been referenced a couple times in his thread

Just watched the documentary...all I can say is wow. The amount of gaslighting is staggering.

NCAA: "were you on the sidelines for the CMU UM game?"
CS: "I can't recall"

It's like he is Harbaugh Jr.
for others like us who don't want to watch it, you can take some solace in the fact that he's not doing it very well. Harbaugh was bizarre but usually in control of the room

I don't like linking ESPN, but apparently the entire defense strategy revolves around playing dumb and "not recalling".



So.... LOIC at minimum then.


Edit: not lost on me is the irony that this guy claims to have committed to memory thousands of signals over multiple teams, but can't remember attending a game over the mere dozens he has been apart of.

Present yourself as this superior mind until you need to present yourself as a complete idiot. It's so smart it's retarded.

I'm still pretty pissed at Joel Klatt. He advocated for letting the process play out, after the scandal broke. Not that he had/has any power, but he was an unofficial mouthpiece for "due process".
Now, the cheaters got into the playoffs, over a team that didn't cheat (probably Florida State), and won the championship, instead of a team that probably didn't cheat. I think Florida State's bowl game against Georgia probably shows that they weren't going to win the playoffs, but being undefeated, they were more deserving than a team of cheaters.
If I were on the playoff committee, I'd find it embarrassing to have to admit that we knew they were cheating and we let them in the playoffs, anyway.
Go eat a pile of rhino diarrhea, Joel. You're only one step above Dan Fouts.

Klatt clearly planned to make Harbaugh the central story figure last year. When the cheating scandal emerged, he took a deep sniff and doubled down. I watched every one of his podcasts before that. I haven't watched since. I really don't care if he tries to boost Ohio State this year. He's dead to me because his actions revealed who he really is. As the stench now emerges, I hope he understands that it will always taint him for people like me.

He called his job "intel operations staff member", and he considered Michigan to be at the bottom of an established intelligence community. Importantly, he served in the marines while doing volunteer work for the team for three years.
He wrote a manifesto — thousands of pages of what he believes is a competitive advantage. But he claims he learned other teams' signals by using the same means as anyone else in the insulated, clandestine world of college football sign-stealing.

What's most glaring to me is that Michigan man Dave Portnoy is the most likable, honest and authentic person in the entire documentary. He knows Michigan cheated. He knows Stalions cheated. And he loves it. He loves that a Michigan analyst did what was necessary to not just beat Ohio State three years in a row, but to win the national title.
First of all, "likable"? Uhhhh...

Second - there ya go. Doesn't matter how we get there...win at all costs. So, scUM, a program whose fans have "prided" themselves in "doing things the right way" sold their soul. High horse shattered.

Portnoy says that Stalions told him he was the man in disguise on the Central Michigan sideline in a now infamous photo taken before Michigan played Central Michigan in 2023.

But when Stalions was asked about the same photo and whether it was him, he answered, "I don't even think this guy looks like me." He did not keep a straight face when he said so.
Hehe, *wink, nudge*

An outside law firm performed an investigation that led to the discovery of documents of games scouted — and people being paid to scout them who had ties to Stalions. Stalions alleged his personal computer was hacked for information. On April 24, 2024, he was interviewed by the NCAA with respect to its ongoing investigation.
Those damn HACKERS! I'm sure Ryan Day sent them.

This guy's a fruit loop. And what does that say about their program, given all of the other issues that have been swirling around about scUM staffers the past couple of years, that they let a nut job like this not only access to the program, but a seat at the table. If that isn't a "lack of institutional control", I'd like to see it.

Him at Pate can just go blow each other. Both are a disgrace.

I won’t watch that documentary but a few things I’ve gleaned from the documentary after reviewing posts on X.

Btw, this went exactly how I thought it would from the looks of it. He thought this was a great idea to clear his name but instead he just made it far worse because there’s some serious inconsistencies.

1. Harbaugh gave him a game call for the Iowa win in 2023. Why would he do that if he didn’t know how important the signals were? I thought he didn’t know? That’s now gone. Thanks Connor for having zero humility.

2. He couldn’t recall going to the CMU game. Well Portnoy states that Connor told him that yes it was him. So thanks Connor for literally showing you lied to investigators. It’s right there black and white clear as day.

3. He admitted to buying tickets and getting film sent to him. All things he said he didn’t do just in the last few days.

I might just have to watch this POS because I’m sure there’s other issues now that contradict things he’s said or the program has said.
