Michigan Wolverines are walking on a tightrope. Surely, the forthcoming Rose Bowl has its effects, but it’s the future that has the organization in knots. The chances of Jim Harbaugh’s switch are increasing by the day. Hence, the circumstances propel the organization further to make the best recruits for the next season.

The Wolverines are already down by three, as Leon Franklin, Sam Staruch, and second-year scholarship running back CJ Stokes made their choice of entering the transfer portal. Not to mention, the Wolverines losing on crucial players like McCarthy, Corum, and Zinter given their choice to shift to the NFL next season. Amidst all of this, the Wolverines secured their beacon of hope, a new commit.

The Michigan Wolverines welcome Jaishawn Barham

Although transfer portals have been the forte of Michigan for the last few years, given the addition of Olu Oluwatimi, Drake Nugent, Josaiah Stewart, and AJ Barn, the previous season left its mark, with a third consecutive Big Ten championship win. Wednesday brought similar news for the team, as Jaishawn Braham announced his commitment to Michigan. The former Terrapins’ three-star linebacker has a terrific record throughout his two seasons.

As if the linebacker’s massive 6-foot-4, 235+ pound physique was not impressive, his almost 100 tackles, seven sacks, an interception, and a pair of pass deflections, all in two years surely is. ESPN ranked the LB ahead of the transfer. While he was not in the top 10, Tom Vareehan thought positively highly of the Terps transfer. “Getting Barham helps add depth, experience, and someone who can help in the pass rush within the linebacking corps for next season and beyond,” wrote the ESPN author.

The contract extension proposed by the officials, although lucrative in nature, comes with a caveat: Harbaugh’s undying commitment to the team for 2024. If Harbaugh accepts the $125 million contract, it will put him on the list of one of the highest-paid coaches in college football.
