A stop sign requires more than a stop. It also requires yielding before proceeding. So, if the cyclist had a stop sign, and got hit in the intersection, then it doesn't matter whether he stopped or not, because the collision implies that he failed to yield.
That's unless you're implying that the driver moved the stop sign.
Or the cyclist stopped for his stop sign, had right of way and properly proceeded across the intersection while the motorist ran his stop sign and/or ignored cyclist right of way.
