One graphic tells you everything you need to know about Jim Harbaugh’s disappointing time in Ann Arbor.

As pointed out by Rivals, Michigan has gone 49-22 since the Wolverines hired Harbaugh prior to the start of the 2015 season. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

On the surface, that doesn’t sound terrible. However, once you realize that he’s behind Ohio State, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Penn State it starts to look a lot worse.

Not only is Harbaugh behind his hated rival OSU, but the Wolverines are 19 wins behind the Buckeyes over the past six seasons!

It’s a damn massacre in the standings.

There’s simply no excuse for how disappointing Michigan has been under Harbaugh. There simply isn’t an excuse at all.

Michigan has had a bunch of NFL talent under Harbaugh, and they still get smacked by teams with fewer pros. For example, Wisconsin has now run it up on the Wolverines two years in a row, despite not getting the same caliber of recruit.

That’s a reflection of coaching.

Harbaugh better win a bunch of games in 2021, or he’ll be out of a job. Clearly, patience has run out on all sides. Either win or get the hell out.

Now, as a Wisconsin fan, I hope Harbaugh never leaves. Watching the Badgers beat up on the Wolverines will never get old.
