Ihedigbo: Brown will make UM national title contender
(Photo: Associated Press)Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh’s hiring of Don Brown as defensive coordinator could immediately vault the Wolverines into the national championship conversation.
At least that’s how current Lions defensive back James Ihedigbo sees it.
Ihedigbo played for Brown when he was head coach at UMass, and was part of the Minutemen’s 2006 team that played in the Division I-AA national championship.
“I think honestly with the adding of coach Brown, they’re definitely going to be in the running for a national championship – I think he’s that good of a coach,” Ihedigbo told The Detroit News in a telephone interview from New Orleans on Monday.
