per CBS:
The ACC is on the clock with Wakeyleaks. So is Louisville's Bobby Petrino and any other ACC coach whose assistants may have received confidential game plans from Wake Forest's since-fired radio announcer.
The Tommy Elrod espionage story at Wake Forest is so bizarre that Louisville athletic director Tom Jurich admitted Wednesday his staff cheated and expressed disappointment at the attention this twisted tale has received.
There are so many unanswered questions about Wake Forest firing its radio announcer for allegedly providing or trying to provide "confidential and proprietary game preparations on multiple occasions, starting in 2014." That's three years of a mole trying to share info. That's three years of a mole possibly compromising some Wake Forest games.
Now we know for sure one ACC school that received info -- Louisville. As if we didn't suspect this already.
Remember, Louisville's football stadium is where documents pertaining to Wake Forest's game plan ended up in the Cardinals' possession before their Nov. 12 game. Remember, Louisville offensive coordinator Lonnie Galloway coached with Elrod at Wake Forest, where Elrod was not retained when Dave Clawson replaced Jim Grobe as head coach in 2014.
Incredibly, Jurich put out the following statement Wednesday confirming Galloway's involvement and offered not an ounce of disappointment:
Our offensive coordinator Lonnie Galloway and Tommy Elrod have known each other since 2007. Lonnie received a call from Elrod during the week of the Wake Forest game, and some information was shared with him that week.
Among the communication were a few plays that were sent and then shared with our defensive staff. None of the special plays were run during the course of the game. Our defense regularly prepares for similar formations every week in their normal game plan.
Any other information that may have been discussed was nothing that our staff had not already seen while studying Wake Forest in their preparations for the game and the material was not given any further attention. I'm disappointed that this issue has brought undue attention to our football staff as we prepare for our upcoming bowl game.
Jurich is disappointed about undue attention? Try being Wake Forest, which says its radio analyst shopped around confidential information for three years. Jurich's statement is so brazen that it requires dissection.
"Among the communication were a few plays that were sent and then shared with our defensive staff." How many plays is a few? Did anyone on Louisville's staff, including Petrino (if he knew), bother to ask how Galloway got this information?
"None of the special plays were run during the course of the game." So because Wake Forest supposedly didn't run the plays, that makes it acceptable to obtain the information from someone at that same school?
