Jim Harbaugh left the college ranks to rejoin the NFL coaching circle with the Los Angeles Chargers. Before leaving, he led the Michigan Wolverines to an undefeated 2023 season and capped it off with a National Championship win.
He entered the season with one of the best rosters in college football and the proof is in the pudding. Hoisting that National Championship trophy proved they were the best team in all of college football.
The proof of their elite-talented roster showed up with the amount of invites to the NFL Scouting Combine. The Wolverines have 18 players here in Indianapolis. That is the most in over a decade.

The back-to-back Big Ten Champions have an incredible pool of talent. 18 prospects from the same school is the most since 2003. Coach Harbaugh did an amazing job recruiting and developing so many talented prospects during his stint in Ann Arbor. Now, at some point, he will have to coach against some of his more talented players in the NFL.
