If someone is stealing signs ... someone else should be better at hiding signs.

Now, the old cheating stuff, paying players .... you're right Lonnie, NiL will eventually level that playing field. They're going-to need-to enact salary caps per program, across the board and somehow intertwine an education requirement as well. We cannot let college football become a minor league NFL or the game will be ruined.

Also, the transfer portal thing has-to-be fixed.

"Regular" sign stealing I'm Ok with and agree with you. What I'm not OK with, and have no real indication is going on any widespread level is using machine learning to decode an opponents signs. With the right coding and programming it's not that difficult a thing to do. Youtuber Mark Rober did it as one of his videos a few years ago. If you've not seen it, it's worth a watch. I'm 100% sure this is what Michigan was doing and what Clemson was doing with a laptop on the sidelines in 2017...
