Tom Jurich, Louisville’s athletic director, confirmed on Wednesday that a former Wake Forest football assistant who became a broadcaster had shared “a few plays” with a Louisville assistant before the teams played last month.
In a statement, Jurich said the Louisville assistant, the offensive coordinator Lonnie Galloway, had received a call from the Wake Forest radio analyst and former assistant Tommy Elrod before the game on Nov. 12. Galloway and Elrod were assistants to Jim Grobe at Wake Forest from 2011 to 2012.
Jurich said that Elrod, who has been fired, had passed along the plays, which were then shared with the defensive staff, but that “none of the special plays were run during the course of the game.
