Former Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh references 'third base' twice in Los Angeles Chargers 2024 hype video in apparent jab at Ohio State's Ryan Day
rode off back into the NFL head coaching ranks after finishing his Michigan tenure with three consecutive wins over Ohio State, three straight Big Ten championships and a national championship as his crowning moment in Ann Arbor.
Yet, six months after taking the head coach job with the Los Angeles Chargers, Harbaugh — intentionally or not — is still finding ways to pour salt in Buckeye head coachLate Tuesday night, the Chargers released a hype video for their 2024 season titled, "Sincerely, Coach Harbaugh" which referenced the favorite moniker Wolverines fans have attached to Day."Welcome to the 2024 Chargers locker room — your football home," Harbaugh says.
Anyone who has followed Michigan football closely knows the connection here. After the Wolverines' defeated the Buckeyes, 42-27, in Ann Arbor in 2021 to end an eight-game losing streak in the rivalry, Harbaugh was asked whether comments made from Ohio State's side the year prior had motivated the Wolverines to victory.
"Well, it did," Harbaugh said. "I mean, there's...yeah. I know probably the same things you're thinking of, I'm thinking of. But, we'll just move on with humble hearts, take the high road. But, yeah, there's definitely stuff that people said that spurred us on even more, sure.. It was also Harbaugh's comeback to Day's threat ahead of the 2020 season, when Day said Ohio State would "hang 100" points on the Wolverines that year.
Jim Harbaugh's work in Ann Arbor is concluded. He not only returned Michigan to the summit of the Big Ten Conference, but also took the Wolverines to the summit of college football with last season's national championship. He leaves the program in the trusted hands of new head coach, who leads Michigan into the 2024 season seeking a fourth straight win over their rivals and another Big Ten title.
