Jim Harbaugh Drops 1 Word Flex to Throw Ultimate Shade at Nick Saban & Co. After Michigan’s Historic Win Over Washington

Published 01/08/2024, 11:47 PM EST

The college football season of 2023 has come to an end, with the top-ranked Michigan Wolverines, coached by Jim Harbaugh, emerging victorious. Honestly, the Wolverines and their head coach Jim Harbaugh have gone through a lot this season, especially with the sign-stealing scandal that happened a few months ago.

To rub further salt in the wound, right before the Rose Bowl matchup opponent team Alabama and HC Nick Saban suspected Michigan’s tenure and took precautions like banning iPad film-viewing ahead of the Rose Bowl to avoid hacking. Although they did not directly point out Michigan or their HC Harbaugh, their suspicion was pretty humiliating for the Wolverines. Now as the Wolverines with their on-field prowess reigns at the top with the final victory, Jim Harbaugh has a lot to say, to those who once doubted him.

The Wolverines defeated the Washington Huskies with a score of 34-13, earning the National Championship trophy. During the post-win interview, Jim Harbaugh expressed immense pride in his team’s performance. When a reporter asked him, “Coach, who has it better than you right now?” Harbaugh confidently replied, “NOBODY,” with a subtle flex.

And it was clearly for those who doubted Harbaugh and his formidable Wolverines’ skill set in the past. Remember the ban on iPad film viewing declared by Nick Saban ahead of the Rose Bowl?

Michigan’s recent victory was a major blow to Alabama and their Head Coach

Saban’s concern about Michigan’s alleged sign-stealing led to restrictions on players’ film access. Alabama’s usual access to the “Catapult film system” for individual use has been restricted, prompting the team to collectively review the film. Alabama WR Isaiah Bond revealed the Tide’s precautionary measures against Michigan’s supposed tactics.

Back then, Bond addressed the media, stating, “It’s the app that will record film off of practice and stuff like that. And they (Michigan) were looking at other people’s play calls like their hand signals. It was like the first eight games or something like that. We were able to watch film with the team, but personally, we can’t watch film because, I don’t know, for some reason with Michigan stealing signs. But I’m not really too keen on all that.”

Despite this doubt, Harbaugh’s team remained silent and respectful and let their action speak rather than words. They boldly secured victory, both in Rose Bow and National Championship, validating their integrity and dismissing Saban’s apprehensions as baseless.
