Everything changed in Ann Arbor, Michigan on Dec. 30, 2014.
That was the day one of college football's most storied programs was revamped and one of the greatest rivalries in all of sports was given new life. Dec. 30, 2014 was the day Michigan hired Jim Harbaugh as its head football coach.
The Michigan program had fallen on hard times. The Brady Hoke era came to a screeching halt after it started with such promise. The Wolverines went from an 11-2 record in Hoke's first season to a dismal 5-7 mark just three years later. That, of course, followed Rich Rodriguez's tenure as Michigan's head coach — a three-year span where the program went just 15-22.
