"An insider's look at Michigan's closely guarded football secrets but does so from the lens of the behind-the-scenes personalities." - Forbes
In December 2014, the University of Michigan's storied football program was in shambles. Over the previous eight years, the perennial Big Ten powerhouse had barely risen above the .500 mark. But on December thirty, a savior was proclaimed in new head coach Jim Harbaugh, a former NFL Coach of the Year, larger-than-life personality, and a legendary former All-American Michigan quarterback.
Harbaugh quickly righted the ship, leading the Wolverines to back-to-back ten-win seasons. After a disappointing eight-five season in 2017, Michigan returned to glory in 2018 with a ten-game winning streak that elevated U of M to #4 in the polls.
John U. Bacon, New York Times-bestselling author and "poet laureate of Michigan football" (Joe Drape) offers a thrilling insider's account of the Harbaugh era, based on unparalleled access, hours of exclusive one-on-one interviews, and his years of deep contacts in the Michigan community. Overtime takes readers inside one of college football's most revered programs and into the lives of the players, families, and coaches, including Harbaugh; star quarterback Shea Patterson, rival Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer, a lightning rod for controversy; and others.
Overtime is a window into big-time college sports, and a legendary coach, that only John U. Bacon could write.
Includes twenty-five color photos.
"A brilliant look into the wild and wonderful world of U.S. college football." -Douglas Brinkley, Professor of History at Rice University and author of American Moonshot: John F. Kennedy and the Great Space Race
