This one is behind a paywall. A few quotes though. The article did say none of the quotes came from OSU staff.

“On game day, as a coordinator, I don’t want to hear from anyone who doesn’t have valuable information pertaining to the game. Connor was talking directly to the coordinators. That tells you what he had to say was important. As far as Harbaugh is concerned, not a single head coach in the country would allow a ‘recruiting’ staff member to be talking to his coordinators on game day. Somehow, Connor was allowed to.”

The 2022 game wasn’t the only time the spying scandal allegedly involved Iowa. Roughly four hours before the 2021 Big Ten championship game, a Big Ten coach called an Iowa staffer and issued a warning.
“Michigan has got all of your signals and calls,” the coach told the Iowa staffer. “I wished I’d gotten to you earlier.” That coach confirmed the context of that conversation to The Athletic. By then it was too late for Iowa to change its signals. Michigan dominated in every phase, blowing out the Hawkeyes 42-3 in Indianapolis.

Fully erect each morning when I log in. Good morning sirs.

Somehow, every new story (or old story that I forgot about) that gets told gets me more and more furious. Fucking cheaters.

If you let your mind wander down the rabbit hole here, it gets very dark very fast. There are so many levels and layers to this, with how bad they fucked over so many people, and they literally are still cheering it on with a holier than thou attitude.

Death or bust.

Edit: I mean, why even have rules? Now I'm pissed too lmao

I still have no faith in the NCAA and hope they prove me wrong.
Matt Hayes makes some very interesting comments in his article, which lead me to believe that he has seen the actual NOA:

It's one thing to pick a fight with the NCAA over its inane rules and structure, it's quite something else to throw down with your own conference and new commissioner over a staffer who allegedly concocted a scheme to advance scout opponents ― giving Michigan an undeniable competitive advantage.
And while we're on the subject of Stalions and his alleged scheme, let me make one thing unquestionably clear: there's not a coach in college football who doesn't know what every staff member contributes on a gameday sideline. If you think the obsessively controlling Harbaugh would allow some random, low-level staffer to infiltrate his program and be trusted with in-game decisions without knowing everything about said low-level staffer, [then you are a conspiracy theorist].

EDIT: I think that Hayes has taken "facts" from the NOA and is disguising them as thinly-veiled commentary in order to satisfy his legal department.

EDIT: To clarify: The Sign Stealing scandal broke in October of 2023. At that time, Matt Hayes could have written an opinion piece stating "sign stealing gave Michigan an undeniable competitive advantage" and "Jim Harbaugh definitely knew what Connor Stalions was doing on his sideline." So why wait until now, three days after scUM received the formal NOA?

The NOA is starting to leak. This will get good, real good.

That part checks out with the DFBIA.
