Overview

• On his Triple Option podcast, Meyer said the NFL or Los Angeles Chargers should sideline Harbaugh over violations tied to Michigan’s 2023 sign‑stealing scandal.
• The NCAA issued Harbaugh a lengthy show‑cause order, a penalty that constrains college hiring and does not automatically affect his NFL position.
• Meyer cited the 2011 precedent in which the Indianapolis Colts kept Jim Tressel out six games after NCAA sanctions, a move publicly backed by commissioner Roger Goodell.
• Multiple outlets note the NFL has not announced any discipline for Harbaugh and observers view league action as unlikely without a separate investigation.
• Some reports say an NFL probe could extend to Chargers assistants who worked at Michigan, while Meyer separately criticized the NCAA’s penalties as ineffective.
