As Michigan gets camp underway, the program finds itself in the midst of unwanted attention due to an ongoing NCAA investigation and a bizarre food incident for recruits.
Head Coach Jim Harbaugh is likely set to serve a four-game suspension. However, the more impactful development could indeed be the sub-par food that Michigan is apparently serving their recruits.
Harbaugh will most likely miss the Wolverines first four games against East Carolina, UNLV, Bowling Green, and Rutgers.
The truth of the matter is Michigan will almost certainly win all four of those games. Plus, the suspension should provide additional motivation for the Wolverines. There’s nothing like an extra chip on the shoulder.
More importantly, however, the program is now facing ridicule after photos circulated online showing the food served at a barbecue event for recruits. The menu included a plain hotdog in a bun paired with a single chocolate chip cookie. The plate also featured macaroni and cheese and chicken tenders, leading to criticism and memes on social media.

Needless to say, this spread leaves a lot to be desired. However, everyone must keep sight of the fact that the only thing that matters is what gets done on the field.
Despite the recent controversies, the Wolverines have sky-high expectations entering the 2023 season. Coming off an impressive 13-1 record in 2022, with a notable win against Ohio State in Columbus, clinching the Big Ten title, and securing a spot in the College Football Playoff for the second consecutive year, Harbaugh is eager to take the team to the next level and attempt to win the elusive National Championship.
First thing’s first, what do you think about the food spread at Michigan?
It’s safe to say the spread is probably quite different at Georgia.
However, this could possibly be the year that Harbaugh and the Wolverines take down the Bulldogs – and that’s more important than any food item.
How do you think Michigan is going to do this season?
