Safety has been the position Jim Harbaugh has struggled to bring in elite talent in his five recruiting classes as Michigan’s head coach. The staff seemed to have solved that problem when they landed the No. 1 safety in the 2019 class, Daxton Hill.
Seemingly beating Alabama for a top 10 prospect in a region of the country they had no advantages in was one of the biggest recruiting victories in recent memory.
Alas, after a flip to Alabama which seemingly came out of nowhere, Michigan was left back in the position it were before. Safety is still by far the position recruited the worst under Harbaugh.
