A couple of years ago, Michigan football head coach Jim Harbaugh was on the hot heat. Now, he’s the consensus best head coach in the Big Ten.
It’s pretty easy to criticize Michigan AD Warde Manuel right now, but one thing he did right was keeping Jim Harbaugh as Michigan football coach when others would have fired him.
Even before the 2021 season, Harbaugh had turned around Michigan football in a pretty significant way. Some fans were blinded by expectations and Ohio State.
There were missteps along the way. Harbaugh wasn’t perfect but he was one of the best head coaches from the day he stepped on campus in 2015.
