Michigan’s Kyle Whittingham knew it was time to fire Jason Beck after watching film of latest loss
Ann Arbor, Mich. (AP) — Following a 15-6 defeat to Michigan State, Michigan coach Kyle Whittingham declared it was time to dismiss offensive coordinator Jason Beck after scrutinizing film of the game. On Monday, Whittingham announced the decision, stating there was "zero" outside influence. Interim offensive coordinator Jim Harding will oversee the team for the remainder of the season.
The Wolverines, who are struggling this season, face Oregon, UCLA, and Ohio State in their remaining three games. They need an upset to qualify for a bowl after being ranked No. 16 in the preseason AP Top 25.
