Reputation precedes Michigan's new DC, 'Dr. Blitz' Don Brown

There’s a recurring theme for Jim Harbaugh in his travels over the past few months.

Many people ask about him but a large number also ask about Michigan’s new defensive coordinator, Don Brown.

“Everywhere I go and I’ve been a lot of places since spring ball, since the summer, the amount of people that come up to me and say, ‘I played for Don Brown at UMass, I played for Don Brown at BC or Tell Donnie I said hi, he coached me,’” Harbaugh said at the Big Ten media days this week. “(It’s exciting) to hear ways that he’s affected lives and made people develop as individuals is on the same par as people talked to be about my dad, how he’s affected people through his career, the many lives he’s influenced.
