Of all the changes Harbaugh made to get Michigan back on track, finally firing Don Brown was such a huge and positive change. Can you imagine Don Brown coaching this game the last two seasons? He'd have blitzed his way into a loss. Props to Jim Harbaugh for finally recognizing that Dr. Blitz was making his defense worse and making the change. Also props to him keeping the same defensive system in place when Mike McDonald left and he brought in Jesse Minter.

Phenomenal hire for Wisconsin!

He's more mobile and doesn't turn it over quite as much. He's got 35 TDs to only 4 INTs on the season. He did throw 2 in a big game today though.

I'm certainly beginning to reconsider. I still think Stroud has all the physical tools to be a great QB. He has good vision and accuracy in general and throws a good, accurate mid-range and deep ball. But it seems that any amount of pressure rattles him a good deal and he really gets off his game.

I'm not going to rehash the anti Harbaugh argument much beyond this post, but the vastly inferior players he had are on him as the coach who recruits these guys. It's one thing if you need 2 years to reconstruct your roster, but we were 6 years into Harbaugh's tenure and he was 0-2 against Mel Tucker and 0-5 against Ohio. He had gotten blown out in the last two meetings prior to last year's win. He had a losing season mixed in as well, Covid or no Covid. Harbaugh has clearly proven his critics like me wrong. I wanted Harbaugh to succeed when he first came in, he was the guy I wanted as Head Coach after the Brady Hoke debacle ended. I was elated when Harbaugh was hired. After he went 0-4 against Ohio and got blown out the first time, I did want him to get the John Cooper treatment. I again wanted him fired after he guy blown out a second time against Ohio. I also wanted him fired after the collapse in East Lansing against MSU. Harbaugh took the lumps from his critics, recognized what needed to change and turned it around. That's a remarkable coaching effort to flip the tables the way he has. Especially doing so with the different QBs and Coaches he's had to do it with. Hats off to Jim Harbaugh and his entire staff for the job they've done turning Michigan into the team we all wanted them to be when he was hired

I was never hyper critical of JJ, so nothing to say there. But yeah, for the disaster and debauchery that were Harbaugh's first 5 years against Ohio, he's clearly turned things around and had this program turn a corner. Jim Harbaugh went from a guy who looked like he was incapable of winning big games to the guy we all hoped he'd be when he was hired. He's had his team's ready to go in the biggest game of the year two seasons in a row now. He and his coaching staff have done a magnificent job and it has gotten them into the College Football Playoffs as a result of great recruiting, coaching, and making the necessary adjustments throughout the season and game.

Ryan Day is fast becoming Harbaugh's bitch! His and his coaching staff's inability or refusal to adjust their game plan is really something. I don't know if it's a case of they don't have the talent to adjust to do what they need or the coaching staff's own arrogance in refusing to do so, but Day and Ohio State are getting exposed.
