Jim Harbaugh lost a bet with his players and says he'll now be getting a Michigan tattoo

The rallying cry all season for the Michigan Wolverines after Jim Harbaugh was suspended for three games due to a sign-stealing scandal was “bet”, but unfortunately a wager that Jim Harbaugh made with his players will lead to him getting some ink.

Harbaugh told his players if they were able to go undefeated and win a national championship, he’d get a tattoo commemorating the achievement. They did just that on Monday night, defeating the Washington Huskies 34-13.

“I said if we go 15-0, I’m getting a tattoo, it’s 15-0,” Harbaugh said in the postgame presser. “I’m going to put it on my shoulder. I don’t know if it’s my left or right yet. I’m a right-handed quarterback, I’ll probably get it on my right. And then an M, too, an M that’s maize & blue M.”

There are plenty of questions surrounding if Harbaugh will even be Michigan’s head coach next year, but now he’ll always have a permanent reminder of this special season on his body.

Here’s looking forward to the pictures.
