How in the heck do you have a full-time job as a football coach in a large University and/or a NFL team, a wife and two kids, and have time to hack into 150K files? Addiction doesn't even come close to describing his actions. Prayer goes out to all the individuals and families that were violated by this monster. The lawsuits are going to run into billions of dollars for damages don't you think?

Well, the relevant question would be was the hacking done to get the noodz, or was it done to access practice footage and medical records with the knowledge or under the direction of the other staff, and he just accessed the noodz as a bonus. Because if it is the latter, the other coaches, could also be in deep doo doo.

My immediate guess was that he was poking around looking for the practice footage, and he found some nudes, and realized this new door opening for him.
But... I don't underestimate the power of the nudes. He may have started looking for those, and then realized that he had the ability to get practice footage.

PremiumDrum:

I have the full indictment. Some interesting bits...

The full scope is listed as 2015 to January of 2023, accessing accounts of more than 3,300 individuals.

However, the charges as outlined specify only 10 unidentified female victims whose accounts were accessed beginning in May of 2021.

"Through open-sourced research..." - this one is going to come back around.
Imagine being just months past getting hit for recruiting violations, weeks away from walking into a COI hearing for the biggest alleged cheating scandal in college sports history, and bracing yourself to hear those three menacing words...

"Notice of inquiry."
Quite the opposite. Most of the offending actions deal with gaining unauthorized access to female athletes' cloud storage and social media accounts to steal intimate materials not intended for public display. Exemplary charges like this are quite common for the feds - they mention the tonnage of total victims and then spell out step-by-step the most egregious examples to solidify the defendant's pattern.

I'd wager that the indictment leans almost exclusively into the stolen nudes because it's the clearest path to secure a conviction and punishment.
Direct quote from a source this morning:

"A university employee was able to install unauthorized encryption services onto their university-issued device and use to break into the training accounts of other athletic directors while on a university network. For 3 years."

Even if every single thing we've reported about the WHAC video server access is completely wrong, it's difficult to imagine a path that doesn't end with another NCAA inquiry.
Yes, Weiss.

The NCAA hasn't moved on this as the federal investigation was underway, although at least twice throughout the investigation the feds provided information to the NCAA.

With the indictment filed, the NCAA is free to move forward. And it would be shocking if they don't.
Insert that Ewok "prepare your anus" meme.
