Washington head football coach Jedd Fisch discussed Michigan's national championship, his relationship with Jim Harbaugh and the Huskies' game vs. the Wolverines in 2024
, wishing his former boss good luck in the upcoming national championship game between the Huskies and the Wolverines.
"But, we were a Harbaugh guy. You know, my wife and I are very close with Jim and Sarah. I talked to him the day of the game, I talked to him the morning after. I didn't have any expectation of coaching at Washington. I was for Year 1 and Year 2 . We won 20 games. We were a bad spot away from being in the Big Ten championship game."
"I'm just so happy for him and his family that they're now with the Chargers," Fisch said. "He's going to do an amazing job. I believe wholeheartedly he's going to be one of the five guys who has won a National Championship and a Super Bowl.""Being with Coach Harbaugh was phenomenal. I was kind of hoping that he was going to be here for one more year so that I could have the privilege of saying that I got to coach against him," he said.
"There's a toughness and a grit that he requires his teams to have," Fisch said of Harbaugh. "We talk about, it's all about the 'W' at Washington. It's about working, it's about winning and it's about Washington. Where, I think, when he was at Michigan it was about working, and it was about winning and it was about Michigan. So, hard work is what he believes in — blue-collar work shirts, lunch pails and I respect that about him.
