Do These Comments by Jim Harbaugh Prove He Ducked Ohio State?

Michigan Wolverines head coach Jim Harbaugh has been under the microscope all year, and he could be on the fast track to the unemployment line. Harbaugh recently received criticism after Michigan canceled the game against Ohio State due to COVID concerns. Now, Jim Harbaugh has revealed that the team had a practice the day after the game was canceled.

Fans on social media are convinced that Harbaugh and Michigan canceled Ohio State on purpose when they very well could have played the game.

Ohio State fans seem to think they have even more of a reason to hate Jim Harbaugh.

At one point, it was looking like Ohio State might be screwed after Michigan canceled the game. Before the season, the Big Ten made a rule that teams would have to play in six games to be eligible for the Big Ten Championship Game. Ohio State has only played five. However, the Big Ten changed their rule, and will be allowing Ohio State to play Northwestern in the championship game.

If Ohio State takes care of Northwestern, they should have a place in the College Football Playoff. Something Jim Harbaugh has never even gotten close to achieving since he became the head coach at Michigan.

Maybe Jim Harbaugh will try his hand in the NFL once again.
