Ex-Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh maybe with the Chargers, but his heart remains in Ann Arbor. Sporting Michigan colors, Harbaugh joined the record-breaking crowd of over 150 at the Wolverines’ Pro Day. His presence likely centered around his former “best quarterback,” J.J. McCarthy.

Under Harbaugh’s training, McCarthy boasted an impressive 27-1 record and is now considered a top draft pick. With teams desperate for a franchise QB, McCarthy’s impressive throwing display drew interest. Harbaugh, amidst the crowd of scouts, seemed proud as he witnessed his former quarterback shine. Chargers coaches Jesse Minter and Ben Herbert — also former Michigan representatives — were also there.

Jim Harbaugh shows Michigan pride at pro day

Jim Harbaugh returned to his roots at Michigan’s Pro Day, sporting a Wolverines hat amidst the flock of NFL personnel. Joining Harbaugh at the Pro Day were familiar faces — Chargers’ defensive coordinator Jesse Minter and player performance’s executive director chief Ben Herbert. Now, all there are former Michigan colleagues. But Harbaugh’s Michigan pride was quite evidently visible through his headwear. Sports reporter Brad Galli captured the scene on social media, highlighting it with the caption — “Jim Harbaugh was back in Ann Arbor for Michigan’s pro day, wearing his ‘block M’ hat.”

This gesture emphasizes Harbaugh’s deep connection to his former team. Though a “Michigan Man” at heart, Harbaugh’s focus is now on the Chargers. He and Minter are building a winning culture in Los Angeles, but their Michigan connection remains strong.

Harbaugh and Minter are building new Chargers

The Los Angeles Chargers are brewing a storm with the reunion of Jim Harbaugh and Jesse Minter. Minter, Michigan’s defensive mastermind for the past two seasons, joins Harbaugh as the Chargers’ new defensive coordinator. This duo previously collaborated at Michigan, where Minter’s defenses ranked second-best in the nation, allowing a mere 268.8 yards per game. Harbaugh, meanwhile, revamped the entire Wolverines’ program. He made them claim multiple Big Ten titles and College Football Playoff appearances. The ultimate achievement came in 2023 with a national championship win.
