The story of how Jim Harbaugh fell in love with football

Michigan football coach Jim Harbaugh shares the story of how he fell in love with football.
Harbaugh spoke on May 4 while he and several Michigan football players were partnering with Wolverine Boots to participate in SkillsUSA’s National Signing Day, an event that supported high school students as they committed to furthering their education in trade programs.

How could u possibly not want to play at Michigan with this man leading the charge, he is the absolute best!!!

[@GoDaniel10]

It’s amazing how much less awkward he is when he’s not being interviewed by the media

[@georgelabarge4985]

Great story, told with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind! My daughter went to that school. Great seeing coach supporting students in the area. Go Blue!!

[@worldpeace6374]

Jimmy is one of a kind. I love what he's doing with the culture at Michigan. Go Blue!!!!

[@thewillofd4417]

Can’t believe I ever lost trust in this man and the culture he can build for a university football team, will never stop rooting for or doubt Jim Harbaugh ever again.

[@johnstacyii4827]

I didn't think he would turn it around neither.

[@DubLubb]

He turned it around immediately....he was inches from a win in Columbus his second year. I knew turning the Ohio State trend would take a deeper commitment after what Lloyd did to ruin the tradition. I think its fitting they named the tunnel after the douche.....a feature now synonymous with other inglorious exits, other temper tantrums.

I bring GREAT NEWS from the future!!

[@darrylblackmon458]

The authenticity of Jim Harbaugh is absolutely inspiring! That closing line says it all; "to play as long as I could, then coach, and die."

[@EMPF2023]

He kind of reminds me a lot of Bob Newhart with his comedic delivery style. Great coach.

EPIC JH 😂😭

[@jefflampas7759]

Love Jim Harbaugh, glad he's UM coach!

[@johnstacyii4827]

Jim is a comedian also. This season could feature his best Michigan TEAM yet.

[@Nick-fz2oo]

You were correct! The National Champion Wolverines of 2023!

[@buckerine]

This comment aged like fine wine!

[@loronnpeoples]

Yep, many of us had that moment except me, far back as I can remember I loved football like no specific moment so probably from birth.

[@rayelee1301]

Read the transcript on TMI but this was so much better!

[@roadrules3671]

Is Coach Harbaugh going to do a follow - up story of what happened to Ralph? Great Story; BTW.

[@ramonereese6145]

Sounds a lot like the practice that made a hurdler out of me 😂😂😂

[@wolfie71231]

he's starting to get some of that old-time charisma back, watch out
