Rumors of sign stealing by the Michigan Wolverines initially began circulating after Michigan’s game against the rival Ohio State Buckeyes. Opposing players and coaches claimed that the team had a suspiciously accurate knowledge of their offensive plays, leading to suspicions of foul play. The allegations intensified when videos started surfacing, showing Wolverines players allegedly intercepting and deciphering the Buckeyes’ signals during the game.
This sign-st?aling scandal has thrust th? t?am into th? spotlight for all th? wrong r?asons. Now, th? pr?ssur? mounts on Tony P?titti to tak? significant action against Jim Harbaugh. R?por?dly, an American sports author, Paul Finebaum, b?li?v?s that th? Big 10 Commission?r must susp?nd th? HC ‘ind?finit?ly.’

According to Paul Finebaum, one must not rush to judgment, but he cannot comprehend how Petitti cannot rush to judgment. “Based on the information that he’s getting and sources are indicating that he doesn’t suspend Jim Harbaugh indefinitely… That seems very likely. Without doing that, everything that happened from here on with the University of Michigan is going to be tainted.”
The sports author then mentioned something very important, and that is… if the Wolverines win the National Championship and Jim Harbaugh gets the trophy and all the credits, the sports world is going to be disgusted. Besides this, the former Big 12 Commissioner, Steven Hatchell, also strongly commented on this controversy surrounding Petitti and Harbaugh.
