Despite flagrant cheating in the sign-stealing case, NFL superstars show Jim Harbaugh and Michigan football support.
Despite being caught in more NCAA rules violations, a pair of NFL legends and Michigan football alums showed Jim Harbaugh and the program support before and after their big win over Penn State this weekend.
The Michigan football program is having a fantastic season thus far in 2023. They are one of the few teams left in the country that remain undefeated and they have smashed every one of their opponents as they entered a titanic Week 11 clash with Penn State.
However, while the program’s 9-0 start has been a major storyline, it has been overshadowed by a pair of rules violation scandals this year. Head coach Jim Harbaugh missed the team’s first four games after he broke guidelines for recruiting in the offseason. However, the 59-year-old is set to miss the Michigan Wolverines final three games after it was discovered that a member of his staff was blatantly breaking NCAA rules on advance scouting.
The Michigan football sign-stealing scandal has gotten a great deal of attention throughout the sports world in recent weeks, and the Big 10 deciding to ban him from the sidelines for his team’s final regular season games was celebrated by some in and outside college football.

Charles Woodson boldy shows support for Jim Harbaugh and Michigan football after win over Penn State
Before Michigan’s game against Penn State on Saturday, star quarterback JJ McCarthy took to his X account to publicly take on the challenge of being without Harbaugh by simply writing, “Bet.” The terminology is often used as slang to mean okay or challenge accepted.
Following the post, Michigan football and New England Patriots great Tom Brady reposted the message with a “Bet” of his own on Friday night, showing his support for the program before their game against Penn State. However, he was not the only NFL and program great to do so this weekend.
