My only concern with Jim, is the possibility of the game passing on his style. It’s been a while since he left the 49ers for Michigan. Can anyone tell why I might be wrong or what I’ve missed out.
As a Michigan fan, I wouldn’t be too concerned. He’s been really good the last few years at recognizing any deficiencies and acting accordingly. Don Brown was a good DC, but stubbornly stuck to a system that was ill-equipped to battle a modern passing offense when the talent level was equal. So he went out and got Mike MacDonald (now the Ravens DC) and Jesse Minter (current DC) who’ve implemented more pro-style scheme.
On offense, he still likes to run the ball, but I don’t see him doing that in the NFL. I’d be extremely sad if he Harbaugh bailed on Michigan, but if he did join the Bears, I could actually see him pulling for his current QB, JJ McCarthy instead of using a pick on Williams or Maye. Him and JJ seem to have a vibe and in my extremely biased opinion, I think JJ is the best pro QB prospect.

JJ is definitely good. And if we get MH jr as well…
