Analytics show how dominant Don Brown’s defense has been since 2015
Michigan is heading into year four under Jim Harbaugh with high expectations. He has helped turn around one of the most prominent programs in college football that spews of tradition with a fan base hungry for championships.
Credit Harbaugh for a lot of the evolution since arriving in Ann Arbor, but what defensive coordinator Don Brown has accomplished since 2015 is impressive. The defensive guru, “Dr. Blitz”, whatever you call him, is playing a huge role in laying the groundwork that's starting to build even more momentum. The 2017 Wolverine team had one true returning starter on defense, but still had one of the best overall defenses in the country.
