Jim Harbaugh just beat Nick Saban on signing day for top safety Dax Hill, and that’s a big deal

The recruiting trail is about as unforgiving and unpredictable as the wild west. A couple months ago Michigan received a big time verbal commitment from 5-star safety Dax Hill, the top safety in the 2019 class and the No. 8 overall prospect.

But just two weeks ago Michigan was dealt a big blow when Hill flipped to Alabama. Fans freaked out, pundits had ammunition to say the Michigan program can’t land the biggest recruits and compete with the top dogs. Well, that narrative is now dead for the 2019 recruiting class.

Dax Hill is back, he committed to Michigan on Wednesday morning.
