Former University of Michigan football coach Jim Harbaugh was hit with sanctions on Wednesday — for recruiting violations and his apparent dishonesty in an investigation into the violations — which could keep him from coaching on the collegiate sidelines for four years, the NCAA said.
“Additionally, if hired during the show-cause order, Harbaugh would be suspended for 100 percent of the first season of employment. The results of those contests during Harbaugh’s suspension would not count toward his career coaching record.” A show-cause penalty is how the NCAA ensures punishment is transferred to any other college that hires the sanctioned individual while the sanctions are in effect. The show-cause order begins Wednesday and ends on Aug. 6, 2028, the NCAA said.
