Just a few weeks ago, Michigan football announced that it had committed recruiting violations.
Today, the Wolverines found out that their head coach, Jim Harbaugh, will most likely be suspended for the first four games of this coming season. Some of the violations included meeting with recruits during a dead period and texting outside of permitted windows according to this report by CBS Sports.
Fortunately for the Wolverines, they always seem to have a cake-walk of a nonconference schedule (East Carolina, UNLV, and Bowling Green) before taking on a team with a semblance of a pulse in Rutgers.
Harbaugh lied to NCAA investigators and thus the penalty was harsher than many that it proceeded.
Statement from Michigan AD Warde Manuel: “We are continuing to work cooperatively with the NCAA staff on an enforcement matter. At this time, we cannot comment further on any aspect of the matter."
