FWIW, it’s been confirmed that the feds aren’t involved, so the really bad stuff is off the table. Most likely explanation is that he stole someone’s password and used their account without permission.

Or they aren’t involved YET
VHBlazer t1_j5apfsz wrote
Federal involvement isn’t necessarily an indicator of the severity of the crime. Someone at a previous school I went to got charged with a federal crime just for changing their grades with improper access to professors’ accounts.
ArcaneCharge t1_j5bgzw5 wrote
Right, but it does mean that it’s not child porn, which I think was on a lot of people’s minds when they first saw this come out.
Ferris_Wheel_Skippy t1_j5bpti5 wrote
that was what i thought. thankful that doesn't seem to be the case...yet
ImbambiBitch t1_j5due63 wrote
The fact that child porn is ruled out I suspect he accessed a grading system to modify key player grades
LoganGyre t1_j5bnc4y wrote
I believe it’s what he did with that access which will be the bigger issue. Some have suggested he might have used this as a way to fix enrollment issues for incoming players and their families… I’ve also heard recruiting and viewing medical information of other student athletes not in the program.

Rumor that I heard, and I stress this is a rumor, is that Weiss logged into Harbaugh's email account and contacted recruits during the 2020 COVID black out period
SchpartyOn t1_j5bp8vi wrote
That rumor is so incredibly incorrect.
Weiss didn’t even work for Michigan until summer 2021 and the crimes he was fired for occurred between Dec 21 and 23, 2022, according to public record.
TeamShonuff t1_j5cpi5d wrote
He logged into Harbough's computer to see the full Secret Santa so he could drop hints.

It's called deductive reasoning. Obviously you're already lacking in the "reasoning" department.
LimerickJim t1_j59up3x wrote
Nah its called speculation
The_ODB_ t1_j59yni2 wrote
That counts as "deductive reasoning" in this sub.
dray1214 t1_j59syex wrote
There really are a number of things that he could’ve done wrong. Op is 100% speculating and nothing else. This is ignorant to do.
MaleficentPurchase65 t1_j59kgq9 wrote
I could use deductive reasoning to say that he was simply accessing a university account he wasn’t supposed to. I could also use deductive reasoning to say he was on the internet doing something illegal. I could also use it to say he manipulated his own financial documents ahead of tax season. These are all scenarios being thrown around. Probably.

tyedge t1_j58uodz wrote
Access is the key word in this, if you’re trying to speculate as to what he did. My state has laws with stupid names that relate to accessing accounts, servers, databases etc without proper permissions or through someone else’s credentials. I’m sure Michigan has something similar. Given that there’s a very public rift between the AD and Harbaugh, I can’t help but wonder if this relates.

To justify terminating an employee (who makes over 1million) something of note happened here, this isn’t a policy violation.

I don't know that that is entirely true. He's a football coach. He can be fired for just about anything.
We didn't score enough. Fired.
We didn't score fast enough. Fired.
We didn't score in this one, meaningful game. Fired.
We like another candidate more than you. Fired.
You suck at recruiting. Fired.
AFAIK, there has been a single wrongful termination suit in recent memory, and it was related to vaccines. I couldn't find any other cases.
bsherms t1_j5aobg6 wrote
He's being fired for cause. That's different. He won't be entitled to the rest of the money on his contract. Coaches that get fired for football reasons get a hefty buyout in most cases.
Useful-ldiot t1_j5b81o5 wrote
Coordinators don't have hefty buyouts. Their contracts are rarely more than $1m making they're buyouts typically $2-3m at best.
Edit: my point here is that any P5 university wouldn't hesitate for a moment to pay some $5m to fuck off. That's not a buyout they'd ever even consider riding out.
Mattbl t1_j5b95se wrote
Poor guy only getting a $2-3m payout, that sounds rough.
I'm kidding, as obviously I understand that money is not "hefty" in comparison to HCs, but to a normal person it definitely is "hefty."
reachingFI t1_j5bb9yw wrote
But he’s not a normal person so why draw that comparison at all?
Mattbl t1_j5bck73 wrote
When I say normal, I mean anybody outside looking in. $2-3m payout for losing your job is hefty for 99% of the people on this planet.

Probably a bit worse, or porn of an illegal nature. Watching generic porn on a university comouter is likely just a flagrant violation of an acceptable use policy (not necessarily criminal in nature).
tacobell999 t1_j58oftm wrote
He’s not some homeless guy who needs public internet access to watch porn… he accessed someone’s email to snoop. it’s obvious.

As a person who administers IT resources for a bunch of white collar workers who all have internet access at home and private cell phones, you'd be shocked by the amount of porn that is browsed on company managed devices on company networks. Our acceptable use policy states that users have no expectation of privacy when using company IT resources. Nonetheless here we are.

helped a coworker on a trip when their work iphone was trapped in one of the browser virus warnings where you can’t close the tab. he didn’t want to call IT. i related the number of stories our IT has told about finding porn on people’s pc. my favorite was one of the women would tell anyone about how a director had his naked wife as the windows background.

You'd be quite surprised then to find out who normally is caught with this. Students aren't always bright and can be very horny.

Sounds like he changed players grades somehow.
Edit: source is close to the program. I'm not claiming that this is 100% definitely true, but that's the word going around.
trwawy05312015 t1_j59f461 wrote
Speaking as a university professor I find it hard to believe that would be possible. If it is, Michigan’s digital infrastructure is either really shitty or someone else would have needed to help him get access.

I dunno man. I saw a documentary where a kid was able to change the number of unexcused absences on his record to avoid discipline. Then he grabbed his friend, his friend’s dad’s Ferrari, broke his girlfriend out of school, and went on some adventures.

Initial reports indicated a swarm of unmarked police cars swarmed his house the week before he was fired. This seems like useful info during a time of wild speculation.
My guess is the University of Michigan will quietly sweep this under the rug with the rest of the dirt surrounding their athletic department, like Dr. Anderson.

You do realize he was our QBs coach right? He developed McCarthy. I can’t say I’m too upset about NOT having co-offensive coordinators though.
SolaceAcheron t1_j5b2wr0 wrote
Him being co-offensive coordinator probably hurt the team more than he actually helped McCarthy. Also, this is Michigan, we have class here. You don't try to justify someone who's clearly done something either illegal or very unethical because they helped one guy on your team.
