As the NCAA continues to investigate allegations that the Michigan Wolverines’ football engaged in a sign-stealing scandal dating back to 2021, USC head coach Lincoln Riley seemingly accused another marquee program of participating in similar activities.
Last week, Riley was seen using a screen during the Trojans-Utah Utes game last Saturday. Luca Evans, a reporter for The Orange County Register, asked Riley about this. That’s where the 40-year-old head coach through shade at one of USC’s main rivals.
Per Evans, Riley stated that the Utah “does a good job of trying to grab signals.” Regarding the Michigan sign-stealing scandal, Riley simply added, “That kind of stuff has been going on forever.”
Michigan imposed a three-game ban on head coach Jim Harbaugh earlier this season for violating NCAA recruiting rules. If the investigation concludes that the Wolverines indeed engaged in their own “Spygate” scandal, there’s no telling just how ugly this could get for Harbaugh and the historic football program.
Meanwhile, Riley’s Trojans are trying to get back on track following a second straight loss last Saturday. One week after getting crushed 48-20 by the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, the Trojans fell 34-32 at home to the Utes.
