one method to counter this is to put 3 or 4 "decoy" signalers on the sidelines


or use cartoon pictures

Saying this is "advanced signal stealing technology" seems a stretch tho.

So Au, programmed a backdoor to the headsets and their system to allow Au to ease drop on the opposition. Is that the theory?

Did Tim Cook help with the programming?

Another SEC assistant said the bigger the staff of the school, the more he’s concerned. “I worry about Alabama more than Auburn to be honest,” he said.

Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher conceded at the time that stealing signals is “part of the game” and said he had “no problem” with what Auburn did. One SEC assistant told The Inside Read that his team will change their signals and use wristbands before playing Auburn this season. Another SEC assistant said the bigger the staff of the school, the more he’s concerned. “I worry about Alabama more than Auburn to be honest,” he said.

Gerry DiNardo, the former coach at Indiana, Vanderbilt and LSU, admitted he had a graduate assistant on his staff dedicated to stealing signals. He recalled a 41-10 Vanderbilt win at Army in 1991 where his team had stolen Army’s signs so thoroughly that the tight end stood up and raised his arms in exasperation when a Vanderbilt assistant called out a tight end pass before the snap.

Yeap and he also bugged the coaches' iPhones so they hear their halftime speeches after they lock them in the elevators.

It doesn't matter this weekend. LSU uses LES-Speak for their signals so when they steal them, it will be a whole lot of "WTF?" from the Auburn staff.

This is the most hilarious topic to come this year. It's hard for me to believe that Kansas State actually complained that Auburn was stealing their signals.

Is there a Signalling Rights handbook that we're all missing out on?

It's eavesdrop, not ease drop.

....and the D actually played better in the second half, after KSU changed their signals. That one just doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
