Harbaugh will miss the start of the 2023 season after accepting a self-imposed punishment for his conduct during an NCAA investigation.
The University of Michigan announced Monday that football coach Jim Harbaugh will be suspended for the first three games of the upcoming season, a self-imposed punishment over his conduct during an NCAA investigation of recruiting violations committed during the heart of the coronavirus pandemic in 2021.Harbaugh will miss home games against East Carolina, UNLV and Bowling Green, contests in which the Wolverines will be heavily favored to win. He will return Sept. 23 against Rutgers.
Michigan said Monday that an interim coach for the three games will be announced at a later date. Harbaugh can lead the team during practices. “While the ongoing NCAA matter continues through the NCAA process, today’s announcement is our way of addressing mistakes that our department has agreed to in an attempt to further that process,” Warde Manuel, the Wolverines’ athletic director, said in a statement. “We will continue to support Coach Harbaugh, his staff, and our outstanding student-athletes. Per the NCAA’s guidelines, we cannot comment further until the matter is resolved.
The self-imposed punishment was handed down to avoid future sanctions from the NCAA, though the NCAA still can punish Harbaugh further. Michigan said Monday that Harbaugh’s suspension was part of additional self-imposed sanctions that followed restrictions on recruiting. The recruiting violations are Level II violations in the eyes of the NCAA and likely would not have led to serious punishment. Misleading investigators is a Level I violation, however, and Harbaugh’s punishment reflects that.
