While Connor Stalions and his sign-stealing operation at Michigan took center stage Friday, there was a behind-the-scenes feud bubbling over between Jim Harbaugh and the school’s compliance department in 2023.

Jim Harbaugh "ran a program that was largely dismissive of rules compliance. There was little, if any, emphasis on following the rules," the NCAA said.

The NCAA explained Friday why it levied punishments against the University of Michigan's football program, head coach Sherrone Moore, former head coach Jim Harbaugh and former analyst Connor Stalions.
