The UM filming all took place inside stadiums where literally thousands of people could be doing the exact same thing as alleged to have been done by this Stallions guy, just simply emailing their footage to who knows how many opposing coaches.
For me, this is the key part: Did the coaches being filmed on the sideline really behave like an opponent getting video of their in-game signals was an extremely remote possibility? I really, really think not. I believe that disguising signals is considered basic game management.
If UM was taping practice sessions, my opinion would change. But I still have yet to see anything that makes me think Harbaugh should be fired or Michigan forced to vacate wins. Suspend Harbaugh for somewhere between 4-6 games and be done with it. (And I would say the same thing no matter which school or coach was implicated in doing this sign stealing.)
