Jim Harbaugh announces Usher will be honorary captain for 2017 Michigan Wolverines

Michigan football coach Jim Harbaugh has always shown a desire to have celebrities sell his football program to potential recruits and fans.

In 2016 alone, celebrities like Rich Eisen, Tom Brady and even Michael Jordan all served as honorary captains at some point in the season. And who could forget the Wolverines' star-studded signing day party?

Now Harbaugh is at it again, and he has one of the biggest entertainers in the world repping the maize and blue.
