Michigan football is struggling after the loss of head coach Jim Harbaugh; AD Warde Manuel's decision to hire Sherrone Moore will set future for Wolverines
Losing one of the best head coaches in all of football is never easy at any level, but it's hard to imagine a much worse start to Michigan's post-Jim Harbaugh era than what we've witnessed this fall.
The defensive coordinator from his brother's coaching tree? Gone. The quarterback who got the Wolverines over the hump in the biggest games and most crucial moments? Gone. The defensive backs coach to helped turn Michigan's secondary in arguably the best in the country? Gone. The strength and conditioning coach largely credited with changing the culture in Michigan's locker room? Gone.
At the same time, given the disaster that's been Michigan's offense and quarterback situation, and a defense that has regressed and largely disappointed this season, it's hard not to question whether U-M athletic director Warde Manual made a mistake in not finding an experienced and established head coach to replace Harbaugh. The fear was that hiring someone outside the program would wipe away everything Harbaugh built.
