Jim Harbaugh officially will not be on the sidelines for the Ohio State game in nine days.
Per a release from Michigan, Harbaugh has accepted his three-game suspension imposed by the conference last Friday and will no longer seek a temporary restraining order against the conference in a hearing that was set for Friday. As a result, Harbaugh will not be on the sidelines for Michigan’s final two games of the regular season against Maryland or Ohio State.
The Big Ten also released a statement Thursday on Michigan's decision not to appeal the suspension.
