Washington’s Jedd Fisch excited to return to Michigan Stadium, calls it an 'awesome place'
Washington head coach Jedd Fisch is no stranger to Michigan football. In fact, Fisch was Jim Harbaugh's first (de facto) offensive coordinator in Ann Arbor, as the team's pass game coordinator. On Saturday, he'll make his first return to The Big House, albeit as the head coach of the opposition.
Even still, defensive tackle Damon Payne Jr. noted that in order to move forward, they are looking backward (a little). And with that, he says the defensive showing vs. the Trojans wasn't who the unit is as much as it was a major lapse across the entire game.
While it has been overshadowed by Penn State's collapse, the first half of Michigan's season hasn't exactly gone to plan.
Washington visits Michigan on Saturday, bringing Huskies head coach Jedd Fisch back to the Michigan Stadium sideline for the first time since he worked with the Wolverines. Fisch, Michigan’s passing game coordinator and quarterbacks and wide receivers coach during Jim Harbaugh’s first two seasons (2015 and 2016), respects Michigan’s rich tradition.
Sherrone Moore's Michigan will host Washington on Saturday as the Wolverines aim to improve to 5-2 on the 2025 season. Michigan fell 31-13 at USC last weekend and dropped out of the AP Top 25.
