Using AI to take the picture of the sign and the video to steal signs. Haven’t used it but would be fun to try!

Was wondering how long that would take, seemed like the most logical conclusion to this by just using AI if you really wanted to steal signs. No idea why they still use them, seems silly in retrospect.

Since the Signgate fiasco started, I've been wondering about AI. Combining analytics with image processing of a program's recent games with sideline signaling would easily generate statistical probabilities as to what is coming in from the sidelines.  Any change in signs would be immediately deciphered.  

It makes no sense not to go to speaker helmets just like the NFL as well as high schools in my area in Texas.  The inability to be proactive is another reason why the NCAA should be put out to pasture - permanently.

Awesome! Would love someone to launch a site or app called Stallions. He might be able to sue because of the name but using the spelling for the horse breed and a horse logo creates an alternative narrative.

Now listen here Lou Holtz, and turn up those hearing aids. I only had ONE BAD HALF and ONLY ONE embarrassing private investigation failure. It will always be Ohio vs everyone.  Everyone who doubts me and my confident lead off of third base is WRONG👎🏽. I am STRONG 💪🏼. My beard is DARK 🧔🏻‍♂️

If the NCAA is serious about this sign stealing thing, they need to implement microphones.  AI use is the most logical next step for teams and how would you stop that!

Figured this was coming quickly when I read of the reports. It only makes sense, in fact, soon all analysis will be done by AI.

Guess this is another argument for speakers in the headsets.

A local school started using AI (not in game) for some of their play calling when they are in certain situations calibrated to the offense they run. They are not good so it’s hard to tell if it worked or not.
