2025 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments, etc.

Got this from Gemini, based on the Department of Justice and Detroit media reports:

The NCAA Committee on Infractions hearing for the University of Michigan's football team regarding the sign-stealing and computer access allegations (involving Connor Stalions and, in a separate but related federal case, former assistant coach Matt Weiss) took place on June 6-7, 2025.

According to NCAA President Charlie Baker, a final ruling on the Michigan sign-stealing scandal is expected to be issued within 30 to 90 days after that hearing. This means the penalties could be made public anytime between early July and early September 2025. Many reports suggest a resolution is anticipated before the start of the 2025 college football season, which begins in late August.

It's important to distinguish between the two separate but interconnected issues:

  • Sign-Stealing Scandal (Connor Stalions): This is the focus of the recent NCAA Committee on Infractions hearing. The allegations involve impermissible in-person scouting and sign-stealing.


  • Computer Hacking (Matt Weiss): This is a separate, more severe legal matter involving former assistant coach Matt Weiss. He was indicted on federal charges of unauthorized access to computers and aggravated identity theft, accused of hacking into databases and accounts of thousands of college athletes to obtain intimate photos and videos. While this happened while he was at Michigan and led to his firing, it's being handled by federal authorities, not directly by the NCAA's infractions process in the same way as the sign-stealing. The NCAA would likely await the outcome of the federal case for any potential implications on Michigan if it were tied to institutional knowledge or failure to monitor, but the primary legal proceedings are outside the NCAA's direct purview.


So, while the Matt Weiss case is a serious legal matter with its own ongoing timeline in the federal court system, the penalties for the Michigan football team concerning the sign-stealing allegations are expected to be announced by the NCAA sometime this summer.

Oh no.. not a goof dick.
This was early days of the web. We didn't know all the regional slang from outside our area. That "goof dick" was a precision strike. I was a goof dick. Just hadn't been nailed by a semi-stranger like that yet. Shit now days a 9 year old Singaporean orphan can use the spare change he collected on a street corner to play Counterstrike in an internet cafe and eviscerate you with a "Eat shit goondu" and you're googling your own funeral in the blink of an eye. Shit felt futuristic. No one in Ohio had used goof dick in 1997.
