Jim Harbaugh isn't a fan of music at practice, as he speaks at Michigan High School Football Coaches Association banquet in Lansing, Jan. 16, 2020. Detroit Free Press
Earlier this month, Michigan's Jim Harbaugh offered a proposal that would reform college football, liberate student-athletes, and give players across the country the freedom to enter the NFL draft at any point while in school.
Presenting his plan in a letter that his public relations staff disseminated to various media outlets, he yearned to be taken seriously.
As the coach at one of the nation’s most recognized programs, Harbaugh sees himself as an influencer who can use his prominent post and name recognition to generate support for the ideas he espouses.
