Ric Flair to attend Michigan signing day party
Jim Harbaugh won't be the only one welcoming recruits to Michigan on Feb. 3.
The Wolverines have invited legendary wrestler Ric Flair to its National Signing Day event, where he'll presumably style and profile, as Michigan celebrates its new class of players.
Pumped to have 16-time world champion THE Nature Boy (@RicFlairNatrBoy) join us next week.

This isn't the first time Harbaugh and Flair have tag-teamed. In 2014, Harbaugh, then the head coach of the San Francisco 49ers, had Flair address his team the night before a game against the Green Bay Packers.
Other figures invited to the party include former Michigan quarterback Denard Robinson, MLB pitcher Derek Holland, and former NFL coach Mike Shanahan.
