Big Ten bans Michigan's Jim Harbaugh from sideline
Yes, the Big Ten Conference has suspended Michigan football head coach Jim Harbaugh from the sidelines for the remaining three games of the 2023 regular season. The suspension is the result of an investigation into an alleged sign-stealing operation conducted by the Michigan football program over multiple years.
Harbaugh has denied any involvement in the sign-stealing scheme, but the Big Ten Conference found that the program had "conducted an impermissible, in-person scouting operation over multiple years, resulting in an unfair competitive advantage that compromised the integrity of competition."
Under the terms of the suspension, Harbaugh will not be allowed to attend Michigan's games against Penn State, Maryland, and Ohio State. He will also be prohibited from communicating with the team during those games. However, he will be allowed to attend practices and other football team activities.
The Big Ten Conference's decision to suspend Harbaugh is a significant blow to the Michigan football program. Harbaugh is one of the most respected coaches in college football, and he is widely credited with turning around the Michigan program.
The suspension also comes at a critical time for the Michigan Wolverines. The team is currently ranked second in the nation and is in the midst of a national championship chase. It remains to be seen how the Wolverines will perform without Harbaugh on the sidelines, but the suspension is undoubtedly a setback for the team.
