Buckeyes fans quick to remind Michigan of Jim Harbaugh’s mess
By John Buhler
Jim Harbaugh still has no idea how to beat the Buckeyes, and Ohio State football fans let him know it.
Even though No. 3 Ohio State lost at home No. 4 Michigan on the hardwood, the joke was on Wolverines head coach Jim Harbaugh, who still has no earthly idea how to beat the Ohio State football team.
Fellow Michigan alum Juwan Howard has the Wolverines men’s hoops team flourishing, as Michigan defeated the Buckeyes in Columbus 92-87 on Sunday afternoon to improve to 16-1 on the season. Harbaugh has yet to beat Ohio State on the football field once since coming back to Ann Arbor in 2015. No, it was not just Ohio State fans who enjoyed trolling Harbaugh on Twitter.
Jim Harbaugh must learn from Juwan Howard on how to beat Ohio State
As much as some people may want to deny it, Michigan is 100 percent a basketball school now.

Howard has come into Ann Arbor and has his alma mater back to being a national power in two seasons.

Michigan fans were thrilled when one of their own, a distinguished alum—someone who’s played and coached at the highest level—wanted to come home to coach U-M.

And beat Ohio State in the process.

Harbaugh may have hired a ton of new coaches this winter, but Michigan is nowhere close to getting to Indianapolis under his watch.
Jim Harbaugh needs to take notes

What is funny in all of this is Michigan cannot even really enjoy this magical moment, as Buckeyes fans, and college football fans in general, will not let the Wolverines hear the end of how underwhelming the Harbaugh era has been the last six years. He has had more extensions (one) than he has victories over his school’s arch rival (zero). Howard is the best coach at Michigan now.
This will be a talking point until Harbaugh finally beats Ohio State in a Big Ten football game.
