   And then what? Football life goes on as usual at Michigan.   
   The problem is, there's no real way to punish the school without punishing the   
   "innocent athletes" involved. The one exception I can think of off the top of   
   my head is, if you allow players to transfer from a school with a bowl ban and   
   both (a) not have    
   it count as their one free transfer, and (b) let each school give one player   
   from that team a scholarship without it counting against their limit of 85   
   (otherwise it becomes a case of pretty much every school saying,  "Sorry, but   
   we can't take any of    
   these players"), then a bowl ban might work - it worked wonders at USC.   
   Even if they do fire Harbaugh, the question probably ends up becoming, which   
   NFL team's sideline will be be on in 2024? I hear the Raiders are in the   
   market...   
      
   And did they have automatic one-game suspensions yet in college ice hockey in   
   1988? My rulebooks only go back to 2007, but it wasn't marked as a rule change   
   so I assume it was a rule in 2005 and 2006 as well (except for football and   
   basketball, NCAA    
   rules are only usually updated every two years).
