Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback and former Michigan football star Jourdan Lewis provided an inside look into Jim Harbaugh’s tenure with the Wolverines this week, revealing an absurd fall camp schedule during his time as a scholarship athlete prior to the program’s annual success among the elites.
Michigan went 86-25 overall under Harbaugh, including three consecutive top-five finishes prior to his return to the NFL.
“We did this everyday, 6 days a week, for a month,” Lewis captioned a photo on X.
The schedule reflects what was expected of a Michigan player months after Harbaugh took the job in 2015, a sun up to sun down game plan for development during August.
Handing players a road map to success with a regimented schedule is nothing out of the ordinary in major college football, but even this slate — without zero time allotted to be a college student — is a bit extreme. After three hours of afternoon practice during fall camp following a morning filled with obligations, Michigan players then had a one-hour lift, a food break, two hours of meetings, another meal at 10 p.m. and then curfew.
Known for his attention to detail, Harbaugh ran a tight ship with the Wolverines prior to multiple NCAA clouds over his program for various recruiting violations and scouting discrepancies. He won a College Football Playoff national championship at Michigan to end the 2023 season, a perfect campaign equaling the best in program history.
Harbaugh took the Los Angeles Chargers’ coaching vacancy soon thereafter and left the remaining staffers, including promoted head coach Sherrone Moore, to deal with ramifications of a sign-stealing scandal orchestrated by former staffer Connor Stalions.
