The Michigan football program has self-imposed a three-game suspension on head coach Jim Harbaugh to begin the 2023 season, a source with knowledge of the situation confirmed to the Free Press.

Harbaugh, 59, will not be on the sidelines for U-M's first three games of the season: vs. East Carolina (Sept. 2), UNLV (Sept. 9) and Bowling Green (Sept 16), but will return for the Big Ten schedule, which begins the following week at home vs. Rutgers (Sept. 23).

Harbaugh informed the team before practice Monday morning that he will serve the three-game suspension.
