In this episode, Zach Shaw and Steve Lorenz break down the news that Jim Harbaugh has agreed to return to coach Michigan in the 2023 season, as well as where Michigan sits heading into the 2023 offseason after several players opted to put off the NFL Draft for a year to play one more year for the Wolverines.
They open by discussing Harbaugh’s announcement that he would coach Michigan in 2023, despite at least some modest interest from NFL teams. They look at the dynamics at play behind the decision, including the possible negotiation strategy, an evident rift between Harbaugh and athletic director Warde Manuel and why this dalliance happened again, and if more can be done to stop it moving forward.
In the second half of the episode, the two shift focus to the team. They look at Michigan’s host of players opting to come back for one more season, what it all means and where they would rank the Wolverines nationally for the 2023 season with so many players ready for more in the maize and blue.
