I don’t think there’s any real reason to question Harbaugh’s handling of the situation with Pipkins. He was a formerly highly rated recruit who some (not me, really, but some) thought had played well during his first couple years on campus. Michigan had some depth issues in 2015 when Pipkins was sitting out, but Harbaugh still didn’t have room for him. We could have used an extra NT since Mone’s injury was trouble, and Glasgow’s injury even more so.
If Pipkins was lucky enough not to get injured in his time at Texas Tech, that’s great.
