The NCAA fined Michigan tens of millions of dollars for a sign-stealing scandal that has loomed over college football’s winningest program for nearly two years.

Michigan was spared a postseason ban and vacating wins, including from the 2023 national title season when the inquiry was launched that October.

The 74-page NCAA report detailed the rift between Jim Harbaugh's football program and the Michigan compliance department.

After Connor Stalions received an eight-year show-cause from the NCAA for his involvement in Michigan's sign-stealing saga, his lawyers issued a statement.

The NCAA report outlines Connor Stalions standing in disguise on the Central Michigan sideline for the 2023 opener at Michigan State: "Stalions attended that game in part to decipher Michigan State’s signals, but also to help a Central Michigan staff member with play calling."

The University of Michigan announced it will appeal the ruling handed down by the NCAA following an investigation into sign-stealing and recruiting violations by the school.
