ESPN’s Dan Wetzel predicted Jim Harbaugh and Connor Stalions will definitely received show causes from the NCAA due to the sign stealing scandal. As the hearings roll on, there’s finally expected to be a decision this summer.
Still, we have to wait and see. One thing’s for sure, as Wetzel pointed out, we won’t be seeing Harbaugh and Stalions back in college football any time soon. Particularly Harbaugh.Granted, the former Michigan head coach is rolling in the NFL again and likely will end his career there. But if he wanted to come back to college, there’s not really a path in the coming years
There is an NCAA committee on infractions hearing scheduled for June 6th and 7th. This is the Connor Stalions advanced scouting operation,” Wetzel said on The College GameDay Podcast. “I believe it’s just that.
