The Michigan football team met this past Saturday to vote on captains. Jim Harbaugh tallied up the votes, came back into the room where the team was assembled, and announced four names: Senior safety Tyree Kinnel, senior running back Karan Higdon, junior offensive lineman Ben Bredeson and junior linebacker Devin Bush Jr.

It’s the first time Harbaugh has had more than two captains during his tenure at Michigan.
