The Michigan Wolverines’ offensive co-coordinator was fired last month over allegations that he “inappropriately accessed the computer accounts of other individuals.” Matt Weiss, who came to the University of Michigan from the Baltimore Ravens and made nearly $1 million last year, did not explain why he was axed when his exit was announced Jan. 20, according to The Detroit News.
