Harbaugh finally brought National Championship No. 12 to Michigan. He led the Wolverines to an undefeated 15-0 season, and now he is gone. Michigan fans everywhere have been holding their breath for the last week as Harbaugh has been talked about in the media with his NFL coaching interviews.
So let's check in on Michigan fans.
Jim Harbaugh's tenure in Ann Arbor was an unmitigated success. He left the NFL to return to his alma mater, flipped the script in the Ohio State rivalry, delivered three straight Big Ten Championships and in his final year on campus, won a National Championship.

A lot of fans are thankful for what Harbaugh brought them to Michigan. They are happy he brought home a National title and understand his next move. However, some fans are sad and frustrated to see Harbaugh go.
As a broncos and Michigan fan,

This sucks
Michigan fans spent the last four months wrapping their identity in defending Jim Harbaugh only to find out he doesn’t love them like that. Hate to see it.

I think however we can all agree that this is what we are thinking of when we think of Michigan fans right now.
