The NCAA finalized and released its punishments for Michigan following their elaborate sign-stealing scandal on Friday afternoon. The repercussions include a $20 million fine of the university, a 10-year show-cause penalty for former head coach Jim Harbaugh, and an eight-year show-cause penalty for supposed ring leader Connor Stalions.
Amid the NCAA's 74-page report were details of Stalions' advanced scouting scheme, describing how the now-30-year-old would obtain video of opponents' sidelines through a "network of individuals. The report also states that Stalions' conduct following his separation from the Wolverines "hindered the enforcement staff's investigative efforts in numerous ways," including throwing his phone in a pond.
