All the talk around Michigan football is currently centered on the alleged illegal activities of a staffer (Connor Stallions), and a vast network of his associates, attending games with the purpose of building a digital library of stolen signs.
However, last night, on the Inside Michigan Football radio show, Jim Harbaugh offered a solid "look over here, not there" distraction moment.
Currently undefeated at 8-0 following their lopsided 49-0 victory over rival Michigan State, Jim Harbaugh says he's got major plans if the Wolverines can go 15-0 and win the national title this season.
How big?
How about getting his first ink kind of big.
“I have no ink. I've considered it," he shared on the show.
"If we go undefeated, I'm going to get a 15-0 tattoo. Probably on the shoulder...and a block ‘M' over it.”
"I haven't configured the art yet, but if that happens, I will do it."
Seems a bit brazen to talk about a potential undefeated season and national title hopes while much of the rest of the country is talking about possibly postseason bans and vacating wins, provided cheating did occur.
Michigan is on a bye week this week and will take on Purdue next weekend.
After the Boilermakers, the Wolverines will take on Penn State and Maryland on the road before their big rivalry with Ohio State to end the regular season.
