00:00 Will this man bring down Michigan football?
00:02 Meet Connor Stallions, the suspended staffer
00:04 at the center of the Wolverine sign-stealing scandal.
00:07 Stallions reportedly purchased tickets to numerous games,
00:09 allegedly to film the sidelines
00:11 of future Michigan opponents.
00:13 Sign-stealing itself is not illegal,
00:14 but advanced in-person scouting is.
00:17 And video of Stallions apparently relaying signals
00:19 during games has since surfaced,
00:21 with SI's Richard Johnson obtaining text messages
00:24 allegedly sent by Stallions saying,
00:26 "I'm close with the whole staff,"
00:27 pointing out a relationship
00:28 with special teams coach Jay Harbaugh, the son of Jim,
00:31 with a previous Venmo exchange
00:33 between the two also emerging.
00:34 All this as Stallions apparently had grand plans
00:37 to run the football program,
00:38 claiming to have put together a document
00:40 hundreds of pages long labeled "The Michigan Manifesto."
00:43 Jim Harbaugh continues to declare
00:45 he does not condone anything against the rules,
00:47 but it's not hard to see the signs
00:49 that this will get worse and not better
00:51 for the team currently ranked number two in the country.
