Michigan has no plans to deviate from four-back rotation

The drop-off in Michigan’s run game from Week 1 to Week 2 was significant, but don’t expect any change in philosophy.

Michigan has four backs — veterans Hassan Haskins and Chris Evans, sophomore Zach Charbonnet and freshman Blake Corum — and running backs coach Jay Harbaugh believes his game plan to play all four is sound. Expect to see more of the same when No. 23 Michigan faces No. 13 Indiana on Saturday at Memorial Stadium.

“Don’t anticipate anything changing in that regard,” Harbaugh said Monday on the “Inside Michigan Football” radio show.

Indiana is 10th in the Big Ten defending the run.
