NCAA college football is in a bit of a mess, particularly the Michigan sign-stealing scandal that may have potentially violated NCAA rules of scouting future opponents in person. But as far as he is concerned, Colorado Buffaloes coach Deion Sanders does not appear to be making a big issue out of it.

When Coach Prime was asked to comment about the sign-stealing scandal, he felt that it hardly gave the Wolverine any advantage when he spoke on Barstool Colorado.

“Everyone’s trying to get whatever edge they can. You could have someone’s whole game plan. They could mail it to you. You’ve still gotta stop it,” Sanders quipped.

To back up his explanation, Sanders, who used to play baseball, tried to compare both sports.

“In football it’s not as pronounced as baseball. If I know a curve ball is coming, I got you. With football, I don’t give a darn if you know a sweep is coming, you still gotta stop it. It’s a physical game. You gotta stop it. So, that’s a little tough,” the 56-year-old added.

Michigan sign-stealing issue worsening

The latest on the controversial sign-stealing scandal is that more video evidence has emerged. The video is said to be at least an hour long showing a person in the stands at a game appearing to record the home sideline using a mobile phone, ESPN reported.

It was added that the tickets bought for games was by Michigan Wolverines staffer, Connor Stalions, the alleged mastermind of the mess per the New York Post. He has since been suspended by the school.
