A former football staffer at an unknown Big Ten school revealed Monday that he was employed to steal signs and put together a spreadsheet of Michigan’s play-calling signals used in the 2022 season with information provided by other conference programs, according to the Associated Press.
The employee, who chose to remain anonymous in fear of jeopardizing his coaching career, shared documents with the Wolverines’ program last week that included pictures of Michigan’s signs and plays, as well as screenshots of text messages between employees at other Big Ten programs.
The staffer shared the information with Michigan in hopes of helping the program amid sign-stealing investigations being conducted by the NCAA and the Big Ten.
