In this episode, Zach Shaw and Steve Lorenz break down the news that Jim Harbaugh is headed back to the NFL after nine seasons at Michigan. They discuss Harbaugh's tenure, and offer a check list of what should be next on the Wolverines' agenda.

They open with a look at Harbaugh’s decision to leave Michigan for the Los Angeles Chargers. They discuss the “surprise” of the move, what their initial reaction is and what they remember most about Harbaugh’s tenure at Michigan.

In the second half of the episode, they dig in to what’s next for the Wolverines. They discuss why Sherrone Moore is such a no-brainer candidate for Michigan’s next head coach, what makes him a compelling candidate and how promoting him can keep Michigan’s momentum going. They also look at the recruiting side of things, including how the Wolverines must go about recruiting their current players to stick around.

They then close the episode with a look at what Michigan should be looking for in a defensive coordinator in the event that Jesse Minter also heads to the NFL.
