Jim Harbaugh. Fantastic coach, eccentric person. As if college football fans needed another reminder, Harbaugh led his team in a victorious hymn in the locker room after Michigan’s victory in the national championship game on Monday night. He’d probably concede that second trait to you himself. Yes, Harbaugh is the one who started the locker room song “For He’s a Jolly Good Fellow.” The locker room was ecstatic about it. Watch Harbaugh lead the joyous song in this video.
Michigan defeated Washington 34–13 behind a brutal rushing attack and a dominating defence, under the direction of head coach Jim Harbaugh, to win their first national championship since 1997. It’s anyone’s guess as to what Harbaugh will do next. Though he obviously enjoys his time at Michigan, he is also entertained (and interested) in the thought of going back to the NFL as a coach in an attempt to win a Super Bowl.
Because of its involvement in the sign-stealing controversy involving former staff member Connor Stalions, the school is probably going to face sanctions from the NCAA. However, if Harbaugh returns to Michigan, it will be with a big contract extension and a Big Ten contender for the upcoming season. If this is, nevertheless, one of the last videos of Harbaugh at Michigan, the great coach made sure it was a nice one. College football fans’ best responses to Harbaugh’s antics are listed below:
Quarterback J.J. McCarthy of Michigan has become one of the most decorated signal-callers in college football history after just three years of playing. With the native of La Grange Park, Illinois, leading the charge against TCU in the 2022 Fiesta Bowl, the Wolverines had only lost once. McCarthy is a national champion right now. He threw for between 140 and 148 yards in four of his final five games, so his numbers weren’t very impressive, but he still did more than enough to lead Michigan to the Promised Land.
McCarthy was greeted with cries of “one more year” from ecstatic Michigan supporters outside Schembechler Hall in Ann Arbour. Next year, the Wolverines will face one of the most challenging championship defences in college football history. Michigan’s upcoming opponents include USC, Texas, Ohio State, Oregon, and Washington in a rematch for the national championship.
Though there’s no better place to start, another season under McCarthy wouldn’t address every one of the Wolverines’ (presumably significant) upcoming problems on and off the field.
