Jim Harbaugh and the way that Michigan has performed through five seasons is no longer something that can be defended. After a thorough and embarrassing performance against the Wisconsin Badgers, questions about the direction of this program finally feel justified, and maybe those of us who held out look dumb for not asking them sooner.
In year five with the money being spent and the players being brought in, this is not a championship-caliber product. This might not even be an eight-win-caliber product as currently constructed. And that is disturbing as hell.
Harbaugh’s teams do not only lose most of their big games.
