Jim Harbaugh Says His Urban Meyer Comment Was “Nothing New,” Not A “Bombshell”

CHICAGO – Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh had a chance to clarify the comments he made about former Ohio State coach Urban Meyer on Tim Kawakami’s podcast on The Athletic, and he doubled down on Friday.

Speaking with Kawakami, Harbaugh said Meyer had a “really phenomenal record everywhere he's been.” He followed up by saying “controversy follows everywhere he's been,” clearly referencing the end of his tenures at Florida and Ohio State.

Since the podcast was released on Thursday, Harbaugh had a chance to explain his comments at Michigan's portion of Big Ten media days on Friday.
