Alabama players apparently not watching film individually on tablets due to sign stealing allegations
Yeah, I have no clue what this is about either. Michigan hacking to get practice footage hasn't been alleged by literally anyone. This is just straight up paranoia

As a parent of three boys, if I were the coach, I'd want my players "watching film" where I can see them, rather then just trusting them to watch film on their own time.

Do they not want people seeing what Helow is sharing with them?

Whatever helps them sleep at night.

Less film, less prepared

They were concerned about lifting team data from Catapult. Here's a better explanation:

The question is what makes them so concerned that Michigan is electronically stealing their information.
Helow? Paranoia? Faux paranoia as a smear campaign and distraction?

Still makes no sense. Catapult is a cloud/SaaS system, so the data is ostensibly attainable from any device as long as you have authorized credentials. If they're worried about their data being compromised, there are a lot of less intrusive security safeguards they could put in place than "no one can watch film from mobile devices."
I'm still thinking the main benefit they get is prevention of in-person snooping.

pure gibberish.
SEC, it just blathers more.
December 28th, 2023 at 3:38 PM ^
It's all bs. They're just starting to plant the seeds of excuses

My expectations for the freep aren't that high, but (even in the world of clickbait), how do you publish that without follow-up questions or explanations. The headline should have been "Alabama players drop unsubstantiated, strange and confusing allegations on the University of Michigan, and we just throw it out there without any follow-up or explanation".

You can't hide those plays from us!! Don't even think of those plays or we will know!
December 28th, 2023 at 3:53 PM ^
That’s smart. I wouldn’t be taking any chances either. Hope we are doing the same thing. Anybody and everybody is going to exploit any advantage they can get. That is sports.

This is … odd. Not sure how even the most tin-hatted Buckeye could come up with some way we are advantaged by Alabama looking at film on an i-Pad.
OTOH, if Alabama has ill-gotten film of Michigan (say from Ryan Day), then this would all make perfect sense.

Just get used to it. It's the way of the world now to accuse your opponent or adversary of cheating before a contest so that you can discard a loss as illegitimate.

Smells like Saban trying to curry popular favor, and plant seeds with the officiating crew.
December 28th, 2023 at 7:16 PM ^
This is so stupid. OPSEC is a big part of any elite organization but this is stupid. And then to talk about it. lol
December 28th, 2023 at 7:23 PM ^
Meaningless chaff.
Clickbait without the clicks.
Theater.

I am tired of us always being the good guys. Let’s be the bad guys this time. Let’s be the team that is feared instead of belittled. Let’s all embrace our new identity as THE cheaters and THE winners.
