Former Michigan associate head coach Biff Poggi believed he was on the verge of being hired for a prominent role with the Wolverines football program, but the anticipated appointment did not come to fruition.
Poggi, who previously served on Jim Harbaugh's staff at Michigan, had indicated he was close to returning to Ann Arbor in a new capacity. However, the university ultimately moved in a different direction, leaving Poggi without the position he expected.
The development adds another chapter to Poggi's coaching journey, which has included stints at the collegiate and high school levels. Michigan has not publicly commented on the specific hiring discussions.
