Former Michigan staffer Connor Stalions operated a rule-breaking advanced scouting scheme, encouraged others around him to destroy evidence and lie to investigators, andproved difficult to deal with.

Here's what you need to know about Connor Stalions' fallout from the NCAA punishments toward Michigan for sign-stealing, and the impact it has on him.

The NCAA finalized and released its punishments for Michigan following their elaborate sign-stealing scandal on Friday afternoon. The repercussions include a $20 million fine of the university, a 10-year show-cause penalty for former head coach Jim Harbaugh, and an eight-year show-cause penalty for supposed ring leader Connor Stalions.

Despite the NCAA punishment being 'light' in the eyes of many rivals and media, Michigan is appealing the verdict.
