One of Jim Harbaugh's top recruiters, and one of the more coveted assistants in the country during the current coaching cycle, appears to be staying in Ann Arbor.
Michigan linebackers coach Chris Partridge has signed a new contract and will remain at U-M, per a report from ESPN.
Whether or not Partridge remains Michigan's linebackers coach, or alters his title on the coaching staff, remains to be seen. The Wolverines hired Cincinnati assistant Al Washington to be a linebackers coach and an assistant on special teams.
