Former Ohio State star Cade Stover reveals stunning example of Michigan stealing signs in wake of Connor Stalions Netflix doc

“No, I knew enough about that BS as it was, I’ve got so many stories." 

Indeed, Stover elaborated on a specific play that raised several red flags among the Buckeyes. He mentioned that during a particular iteration of "The Game," Ohio State had planned to execute a tight end screen from a completely new formation, never previously used for such a play.

However, this strategy didn't deceive anyone, as Michigan had anticipated a screen play even before it commenced:

“I don’t want to get into it, but we tried to throw a TE screen (against Michigan) from a formation we’ve never used before — ever,” described Stover. “As soon as I line up out wide that we had one play from… when they started yelling ‘screen’ when we’re running a TE screen, that’s when you know ‘What the (bleep) is this? We haven’t ran this before.’ But I don’t have a lot of room to talk, I didn’t do much. They beat us, so.”

It's true that Michigan won handily enough and in a manner that likely makes it hard to argue that sign-stealing is why the Buckeyes lost. But it's an interesting addition to the proof that Michigan benefitted from its illegal activities.
