Michigan Staffer Connor Stalions Resigns and Fired Amid Sign-Stealing Scandal

The University of Michigan has fired Connor Stalions, a staffer at the center of the NCAA's sign-stealing investigation, after he refused to cooperate with internal and external investigations. Stalions had purchased tickets to games in Big Ten stadiums before those teams played against the Wolverines, potentially violating NCAA rules on scouting and recording signals. Screenshots of a person resembling Stalions on the Central Michigan sideline during a game against Michigan State have also raised concerns. Frustration has been mounting within the Big Ten conference, with coaches and athletic directors urging the conference commissioner to take action against Michigan.
