Summary

Michigan alum Rich says he’s “very happy” Jim Harbaugh is staying in Ann Arbor but admits he’s nervous about how his interview with the Minnesota Vikings will impact the Wolverines’ future recruiting efforts. Rich and the guys react to Texas A&M Head Coach Jimbo Fisher’s angry denial that the Aggies used a secret slush fund to help land the nation’s #1 football recruiting class. FOX Sports & The Athletic’s College Football Insider Bruce Feldman tells Rich why Jim Harbaugh went form a lock to become the Vikings next head coach the returning to Michigan to remain the Wolverines’ HC and how he walks back his NFL flirtation with future recruits, how Ole Miss Head Coach Lane Kiffin is stirring things up in the SEC with comments that irked Texas A&M’s Jimbo Fisher, the impact of Brian Kelly losing that recruit in his viral dancing video to Nick Saban and Alabama, and why Joe Burrow and the Bengals will be a force in the AFC for years to come.
