Recruiting is the lifeblood of any winning college football program and over the past few years, while Michigan football has done a good job, it hasn’t done enough.
That’s evident by the results on the field. Despite all the resources needed to succeed, Michigan football is 0-5 against Ohio State under Jim Harbaugh and the Wolverines haven’t won a Big Ten conference championship since 2004.
That 15-year stretch is shocking. People want to say Michigan isn’t an elite program on a national level and maybe that’s true. But Bo and Lloyd Carr routinely won Big Ten title, even if some of them were shared.
