I've been very critical of the way Warde has handled the Harbaugh situation. I think it shows an extreme lack of leadership not addressing the situation until after the season. With Michigan canceling the last 3 games the end of the season is here, not to mention the past 6 years of not having a plan.
The other potential blow back to Warde's strategy was the impact it could have on a top 10 recruiting class already assembled. Having uncertainty in your program is a great way not to attract talent but make them run away. That theory was proven false yesterday as the Wolverine staff and coaches did a tremendous job keeping the train on tracks and getting these talented young men to commit to Michigan.
