Newsstand: Former Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh says NCAA has ‘no credibility’

Tweets Of The Day

Former Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh continues to battle with the NCAA. The organization slapped Harbaugh with a four-year show cause over minor recruiting violations and his apparent failure to cooperate with the investigation. Michigan was also recently dealt a notice of allegations for a alleged off-campus scouting violations.

Harbaugh left Michigan in January, opting to return to the NFL with the Los Angeles Chargers. But in a conversation with ESPN recently, he sounded off on the NCAA.

“They’ve been keeping money away from players for decades,” Harbaugh said, via ESPN . “They just got hit with a $2.7 billion lawsuit. They have no credibility. That’s the truth.”

Harbaugh is referring to a settlement between the NCAA and three different plaintiffs over name, image and likeness rules. The NCAA is set to pay nearly $3 billion in back damages to former athletes who were unable to monetarily capitalize on their name, image and likeness.
