Man, I dunno......I think I'd give Villari a shotThis sounds unbelievable, so I decided to do some research....
Fact check: MOSTLY TRUE
Harbaugh has recruited seven quarterbacks to Michigan. Here's the list, in order, with year signed in parentheses, followed by career passing TDs:
Zach Gentry (2015): 0
Alex Malzone (2015): 0
Brandon Peters (2016): 4
Dylan McCaffrey (2017): 3
Joe Milton (2018): 5
Cade McNamara (2019): 5
Dan Villari (2020): 0
6 years, 7 quarterbacks, 17 TDs. Let that sink in.... Quarterback whisperer, indeed!
Here's a look at Harbaugh's other quarterbacks:
He inherited Wilton Speight, who threw for 22 TDs in parts of 3 seasons (2015-2017).
Jake Rudock transferred in 2015 and threw for 20 TDs that year before graduating.
John O'Korn also transferred into Michigan, and he had a grand total of 4 TDs in two seasons (2016 & 2017), to go along with 6 INTs.
Shea Patterson was the most successful transfer, and he threw for 45 TDs in two seasons (2018 & 2019). By way of comparison, Dwayne Haskins threw for 50 TDs in 2018 alone.
Fun fact: In 2017, Michigan had just 9 passing TDs in 13 games (Peters 4; Speight 3; O'Korn 2).
