One national college football analyst had some strong opinions towards the Spartans’ rivals following the release of the new Sign Stealer Netflix documentary.
Sign Stealer was released on Tuesday and provided more insight into the Michigan Football sign-stealing scheme led by former recruiting analyst Connor Stalions. The documentary didn’t provide a bunch of new details that were not already known but it did show the connection between Stalions and former Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh. Stalions was quoted in the documentary saying he received the game ball from the Iowa win in 2022 for his role in deciphering signals.
Well, this documentary didn’t sit well with many, including CBS Sports analyst Danny Kanell. He took to X on Tuesday morning (presumably after watching the documentary) and ripped into Harbaugh and Michigan for “cheating.”
Check out a few of the tweets sent out by Kanell below:
I wanted to hear more details before really having a strong opinion on what Michigan did. But it's clear:
They clearly cheated.
They have been blatantly lying about the extent of it.
They deserve harsh punishment.
The entire Harbaugh era at Michigan is tainted.— Danny Kanell (@dannykanell) August 27, 2024
