University of Michigan officials let Matt Weiss, the former University of Michigan co-offensive coordinator, coach in the 2022 Fiesta Bowl despite knowing he hacked into the personal accounts of female college athletes, according to a new federal lawsuit filed Friday.

The allegation was contained in a lawsuit by 11 female students at UM and other schools that added former football coach Jim Harbaugh as a defendant along with former President Santa Ono and Athletic Director Warde Manuel and others, including former President Mark Schlissel. The lawsuit filed by the women, who are referred to as "Jane Does" and all but one of whom was a student athlete, is an amended version of a civil complaint initially filed in March in federal court in Detroit.


The lawsuit alleges an unnamed UM staff member saw Weiss viewing private information belonging to the female students between Dec. 21-23, 2022, at Schembechler Hall, the nerve center of UM's football team. The staffer reported it to university officials before the Fiesta Bowl on Dec. 31, 2022, which UM lost 51-45 to Texas Christian University.

"In this way, the university placed profits before people, particularly women and female student athletes," lawyers for the women wrote in the lawsuit.

The lawsuit offers a harsh portrayal of Harbaugh, who led Michigan to a national championship in 2023 in his ninth season, and describes harm suffered by the female college students whose private information was hacked. For several victims, including a professional soccer player, that harm includes being deprived of using their name, image and likeness or the valuable data being compromised and sold.


“Harbaugh led and encouraged a culture within the football program that resulted in a complete lack of oversight or protection for non-football student athletes,” the lawsuit alleges. “Had Harbaugh implemented basic oversight of his staff, plaintiffs…would have been protected against predators such as Weiss.”

Harbaugh, Manuel and others failed to act to protect students, the lawsuit alleges.

the University has to be sitting on billions of dollars and Jim Harbaugh has to be sitting on tens of millions of dollars. of course they are going to sue them as well and not only the assistant coach- who actually committed the crime- who was making a great salary- but it's still only 6 figures a year. sue the people with deeper pockets = you get more money.

the underlined part is a bit ridiculous, Matt Weiss had no prior criminal record and how on earth would Jeem know the guy was secretly an expert computer hacker with a proclivity for hacking women's iclouds and social media accounts to look at nude pics? DOJ indictment was saying he was doing this sick stuff dating back to 2013- way before he ever even worked at Michigan.

Michigan has been recruiting well this Summer.  No, never as well as the Buckeyes.  And yes, I'm still waiting for the NCAA hammer to fall.

Michigan has been recruiting well this Summer.

they had an insane run in June, and it should continue in July.

They are definitely changing what they are looking for when it comes to WR's and seem to only be going after bigger WR's for Bryce Underwood. They landed the 6'5" WR from Indiana in the porthole McCulley and in the 2025 class they signed top 100 overall player Andrew Marsh (6'1"), 4* top 200 overall player Jacob Washington (6'3") and 3* Jamar Brodwer (6'5") and for the 2026 class they have top 100 overall player Zion Robinson (6'3") committed and will find out in a couple of days if they land 5* Calvin Russell (6'5") and 4* top 150 overall player Travis Johnson (6'3"). Rumors/intel seems to suggest they'll get commits from Russell and Johnson but it's 'crootin so you never f'ng know and really even commits don't mean jack til they sign the LOI.

You can tell they are making a huge change in the types of WR's they are targeting and taking commits from- no more 5'9/5'10/5'11 guys like Tyler Morris, Semaj Morgan, I'Marion Stewart, Karmello English like they had been doing in the past couple classes before under Jeem. CJ Saddler is a WR and the #1 player in Michigan and a top 100 overall player and they aren't even recruiting him because he's 5'9". They are looking for dudes legit 6'1" and up now. It's kind of about time to be fucking frank.

Jemm knew he had IT abilities  for advanced surveillance,hacking other ATH Depts clouds.Jeem denied knowing who connor was originally also - even after the '22 OSU game where connor went racing right past Jeem/Minter called a defensive time out and the whole defense came to the sideline for connor's instruction.Jeem is a pathetic,lying PoS. Sure he prolly didn't know about Weiss going into students accounts but he absolutely knew about UZI,err, Mazi Smith's gun toting ways,Weiss developing software stealing and connor stealing signs perhaps even from it

They've recovered the Sherrone's text deletions from the day Connor dashed out the door with the missing hard drives. Yet the leaders and best at Schembechler Hall never thought to file theft charges or demand their return??? Oh the webs we weave

[MrNubbz]

You would laugh defending the lying perv.Who do you think hacked the coeds and the WH Ath Dept cloud server

[Mdot21]

Who do you think hacked the WH Ath Dept cloud server

no one. it never happened.

[Mdot21]

hype on him is crazy....hopefully Ryan Clark is a better talent evaluator than he is ESPN analyst. 

[Mdot21]

Sherrone Moore apparently played the movie Scarface with Al Pacino to his team the week before the Ohio State game. hell yeah.
