Ezekiel Elliott had no issue with letting his real feelings out about Michigan’s Jim Harbaugh
The Ohio State vs. Michigan rivalry, especially on the football field, has always been one of the more entertaining in all of sports. However, we all have to admit that things have been turned up just a little bit more now that the polarizing Jim Harbaugh is running the show in Ann Arbor.
Since he’s arrived, he’s certainly rubbed people in Columbus the wrong way, especially the Ohio State players and coaches. And although he’s not a member of the Buckeyes’ football team any longer, running back Ezekiel Elliott is absolutely no fan of the Michigan head man.
Elliott, as he gets set for the NFL Draft coming up later this month, appeared on the Paul Finebaum Show, and he really didn’t hold back when letting his feelings out about Harbaugh.

more from @EzekielElliott: "you can't talk smack about a rivalry when you haven't won a game. You have to win ballgames to talk behind it."

While Harbaugh did finish overall 10-3 in his first season as the Michigan coach, the regular season ended with a drubbing at the hands of Ohio State, so Elliott isn’t necessarily wrong in saying that Harbaugh shouldn’t take shots at Ohio State when he hasn’t beaten them on the gridiron just yet.
Elliott might not be playing with the Ohio State uniform on anymore, but his disdain for everything Michigan, especially Harbaugh, will live on forever.
