Jim Harbaugh has yet to coach a Michigan football game this season as he continues serving a school-imposed three-game suspension stemming from an NCAA investigation into alleged recruiting violations.

But he couldn't stay away from the football field for long.

Harbaugh served as part of the chain gang for his son's youth football game on Saturday.

Yes, Harbaugh was there for his son, Jack, who had a game early Saturday afternoon. Harbaugh's father, Jack — the younger Jack's namesake — was also in attendance, per CBS Sports.

Still, the Harbaugh family maintained a very visible presence at Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor on Saturday as the Wolverines took on UNLV. The designated interim head coach for the first half of that game was Jim Harbaugh's eldest son Jay Harbaugh, who is the special teams coach on Jim's staff.

The Wolverines were led by Blake Corum, who ran for three touchdowns, and J.J. McCarthy, who threw two more scoring passes to Roman Wilson to help No. 2 Michigan rout UNLV, 35-7.

Corum had 80 yards rushing on 15 carries and caught two passes for 23 yards. McCarthy completed his first 13 passes and finished 22 of 25 for 278 yards and two touchdown passes to Wilson, who had four receptions for 89 yards and has five touchdown receptions through two games.

UNLV — like East Carolina last week — avoided a shutout with a late score. Jordan Younge-Humphrey had a 20-yard rushing touchdown with 2:43 left, capping a nine-play, 81-yard drive.
