Michigan will have a pretty special guest on their list for National Signing Day in the form of Ric Flair. 

Next week is National Signing Day in college football and the Michigan Wolverines are really going out of their way to make this a more unique event than usual. The historic program is partnering with the Players’ Tribune to live stream a star-studded event that will not be void of some very special guests.

Well, you can add one more name to that guest list now for National Signing Day and this person happens to be a personal favorite of head coach Jim Harbaugh.

The football program announced on Thursday that none other than the 16-time professional wrestling world champion and one of the most famous in the industry, Ric Flair, will be on hand for Michigan as they bring in some of the top football recruits in the country.


Well, it really doesn’t get much bigger than this, does it? You know for Coach Harbaugh it really doesn’t, because like many of us and any other sane human being, Flair is a big favorite of his.

Now all we have to do is sit back and wait for next Wednesday when presumably Flair will let out a big “WOOOOOOOOO!” after Michigan lands one of the big ones.
