Central Michigan coach Jim McElwain spoke about the viral photo that appears to depict Michigan football staff member Connor Stalions wearing Chippewas coaching gear and standing along the sideline during a game against Michigan State earlier this season.
Stalions is the focus of an ongoing NCAA investigation into the Wolverines for potential off-campus scouting and sign-stealing violations.
McElwain addressed the photo after Tuesday’s 37–31 win against against Northern Illinois, confirming to reporters that the university is investigating the incident, though he did not mention Stalions by name, referring instead to “the sign-stealer guy.”
