ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Here we go again.
That’s the message from Jim Harbaugh — same as it ever was — while his Michigan team dives into its first week of spring practice. Buoyed by back-to-back Big Ten championships and a second straight College Football Playoff appearance, the Wolverines are seemingly unbothered by another winter filled with off-field drama surrounding the program.
And whether you believe that or not, or whether you buy the story Harbaugh is selling now — from the passive-voice answers about his pursuit of an NFL job last month to the hard pass he’s taking on questions about alleged NCAA violations or the firing of co-offensive coordinator Matt Weiss amid an investigation of computer crimes in Schembechler Hall — what’s clear is that Michigan’s head coach believes what he has built here is too big to fail.
