3. Jim Harbaugh

Believe it or not, Jim Harbaugh is not in the Hall of Fame. This should do the trick though. Going 15-0 and missing almost half the season, just to retire this generation's Bear Bryant. It was the perfect cinematic ending to his majestic Michigan football career.

If Bo got a statue outside the Big House, then Harbaugh ought to get one too. He did something Bo did not. I would further to venture that even renaming something in his honor would be a great way to commemorate the occasion. Maybe a new building or something that includes Michigan stadium to it.

It took patience for Harbaugh to do what we all knew that he was capable of doing when he was hired. This already sums up what everyone knew about him whether you like him or hate him and that is that it puts him in the upper echelon of coaches who have won at the two highest levels of the sport. Michigan football fans know far and wide that a Super Bowl is his future is something he can win this time and is a very realistic goal.
