Recently, the University of Michigan announced that they will be appointing four interim head coaches to lead the team during Jim Harbaugh’s three-game suspension. This decision was made in response to the NCAA’s ruling that Harbaugh had violated a recruiting rule.
The four interim head coaches will be leading the team for the upcoming games against Rutgers, Michigan State, and Indiana. Each coach will be responsible for a different aspect of the team. The first coach will be responsible for the offense, the second for defense, the third for special teams, and the fourth for overall game management.
The interim head coaches are all highly experienced and have a long history of success in college football. The offensive coach is former Michigan offensive coordinator Fred Jackson, who was with the team from 2011-2014. The defensive coach is former Michigan defensive coordinator Greg Mattison, who was with the team from 2008-2014. The special teams coach is former Michigan special teams coordinator Mike DeBord, who was with the team from 2011-2015. The overall game management coach is former Michigan assistant coach Jeff Hecklinski, who was with the team from 2011-2016.
The University of Michigan is confident that these four interim head coaches will be able to lead the team to success during Harbaugh’s suspension. With their combined experience and knowledge of the program, they should be able to keep the team on track and ensure that they are prepared for each game.
The University of Michigan is also confident that Harbaugh will be able to return to his position as head coach once his suspension is over. He has been a great leader for the program since he joined in 2015 and has led the team to success on and off the field.
The University of Michigan is looking forward to seeing what these four interim head coaches can do during Harbaugh’s suspension. With their combined experience and knowledge of the program, they should be able to keep the team on track and ensure that they are prepared for each game.
