'Not a cheeseburger’ comment suggests the NCAA is hellbent on hitting Jim Harbaugh hard

On Saturday, Yahoo Sports reported that a “negotiated resolution” between the NCAA and Jim Harbaugh had broken down.

Per the agreement, Harbaugh was going to be suspended for the first four games of Michigan’s 2023 season after the NCAA alleged he was not forthcoming with investigators (a so-called Level I violation) when questioned about lesser Level II violations.

The deal between Michigan/Harbaugh and the NCAA’s enforcement staff still needed to be approved by a three-person panel made up from the NCAA’s Committee on Infractions (COI). They declined.

Now the case is likely headed to a full hearing, probably in 2024.
