This case centers around Matt Weiss, a former Michigan football co-offensive coordinator, who was fired in early 2023 following allegations of unauthorized access to university email accounts, including those linked to student-athletes. The breach raised alarms about potential privacy violations and whether the University of Michigan adequately protected sensitive personal and athletic data.
At the heart of the controversy is whether Weiss improperly accessed or attempted to access digital accounts without proper permission. The FBI was reportedly involved, and Weiss was terminated after an internal investigation. While no criminal charges have been publicly filed as of this writing, the data breach opened the door to potential civil liability for both Weiss and the University.
