Michigan Overhauls Vetting Process After Racist Social Media Posts Lead to Short-Lived Hire
- Michigan recently hired Glenn "Shemy" Schembechler, son of legendary football coach Bo Schembechler, as assistant director of football recruiting.
- Schembechler resigned three days later after racist posts were found on his personal Twitter account.
- Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh took responsibility for the failed hire and criticized the offensive content.
- Michigan dropped the third-party company that vetted Schembechler and will use a new human resources firm.
- Bo Schembechler coached Michigan football for 20 years from 1969 to 1989.
