The first of Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh’s weekly news conferences took place on Monday outside Schembechler Hall in preparation for the season opener vs. Western Michigan on Saturday.
Harbaugh spoke to reporters for 17 minutes ahead of a pressure-packed season for both himself and the program following an abbreviated, yet dismal, 2020 campaign that saw the Wolverines lose all three games at home.
Here are the highlights from Harbaugh’s media session:
BIG TEN MISERY INDEX:Look out, Michigan and MSU — there's a new team atop the Big Ten
Cade McNamara is officially Michigan’s starting quarterback
Harbaugh reiterated what most people inside and outside the program expected by naming McNamara the starter for Saturday’s game against WMU.
