Michigan football hires female graduate assistant coach, first for Power 5 program

Milan Bolden-Morris is making history as a new member of the Michigan football coaching staff.

Bolden-Morris has been hired as a graduate assistant coach on Jim Harbaugh’s staff and becomes the first female GA at a Power 5 program. She will work on the offensive staff, specifically with quarterbacks, the school announced Tuesday.

Morris, who goes by the nickname Mimi, played guard for Georgetown this season and led the team in scoring. She is the sister of Michigan defensive lineman, Mike Morris. Their father, Mike Sr., played football at Florida State.

“The opportunity to be the first female GA in the Power 5, especially the Big Ten, is an absolute honor,” Bolden-Morris said in a statement.
