Michigan Football Faces Unspoken Legacy as Former Coach Jerry Hanlon Passes Away

When Schembechler took over at Michigan, Hanlon followed along. He would go on to spend 23 seasons at Michigan, coaching multiple positions, but primarily working with the offensive line and quarterbacks. Overall, he coached 18 All-American linemen while also helping with the development of quarterback Jim Harbaugh. He would also see 36 of his players be selected in the NFL Draft.

Michigan Athletic Director Warde Manuel also released a statement on the impact of Hanlon on the University.

“Michigan Athletics has lost one of the finest ambassadors and mentors our football program has ever known. Jerry devoted his life to coaching, teaching, and developing young men, watching them grow into leaders in our community and into devoted husbands and fathers. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, those he coached, and everyone who had the privilege of knowing Coach Hanlon.”
