ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit still believes in Michgan’s Jim Harbaugh

It’s safe to say, things haven’t gone according to plan for Jim Harbaugh and the Michigan Wolverines in 2020.

Following a season opening victory over Minnesota, the Wolverines have dropped both of their next games in major upsets. Not only did Michigan State Spartans head coach Mel Tucker earn his first win with his new team over the Wolverines, but Indiana one-upped them by earning their first win over Michigan since 1987.

ESPN college football analyst Kirk Herbstreet, a long-time defender of Harbaugh,

“Don’t ask,” Herbstreit joked when asked about the Wolverines’ troubles. “Don’t ask. Ugh, please don’t ask.”

“What in the heck is going on up there?,” Herbstreit said. “You know, nobody wants to see him do better than me — outside of the Michigan family. Like, I am all in. When they made the hire, I was like, ‘Here we go.’ Because I want the Big Ten to be elite, and I want the blue bloods to be elite.”

“And then, I can’t explain Michigan State,” Herbstreit said. “I have no idea. I know it’s a rivalry game, but if you watched Michigan State before the game, and you watched Michigan State after the game, no way anybody can explain what happened for 60 minutes that day.”

So what happened against Indiana?

“Indiana just out played ’em,” Herbstreit said. “And looked good doing it. It was not a fluke. It wasn’t like, ‘Well, they caught a break,’ or ‘they got that one call that went their way.’ I mean, they were getting separation against the Michigan corners. They weren’t getting a pass rush against Michael Penix.

However, don’t expect Herbstreet to call for Harbaugh to be replaced.

“I’d like to think they can turn it around, and definitely him proving to be the guy we’d thought when he first came in. I think anybody who stands around right now and thinks he can’t coach is crazy. I just think they’ve got to continue to go out and get elite players.”
