Jim Harbaugh emphatically denied any knowledge of any alleged illegal sign stealing or illegal scouting done by his Michigan football program after news broke that the NCAA was investigating the Wolverines.
Dan Wetzel,Ross Dellenger, Yahoo SportsMINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA - OCTOBER 07: Head coach Jim Harbaugh of the Michigan Wolverines looks on against the Minnesota Golden Gophers in the second half at Huntington Bank Stadium on October 07, 2023 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Wolverines defeated the Golden Gophers 52-10. October 19, 2023 at 3:55 pm PDT
The NCAA’s investigation into Michigan over alleged sign stealing and perhaps scouting opponents in person was first reported Thursday by Yahoo Sports. Both Michigan and the Big Ten confirmed the investigation soon afterward. Sign stealing is considered common in college football and while raising integrity questions is not specifically prohibited in the NCAA bylaws unless information is communicated electronically on gameday to players or between coaches. Harbaugh used the term “illegal sign stealing” but there is no such thing.
Michigan is 6-0 and ranked No. 2 nationally in Harbaugh’s ninth season at his alma mater. He previously coached the NFL's San Francisco 49ers and both Stanford and the University of San Diego. The Wolverines have won consecutive Big Ten titles.
