There is a reason why the college football season only lasts a few months. While arguably the best sport in the world, there is just too much chaos for sports fans to handle. Look no further than Ann Arbor, Michigan, where media outlets are following Jim Harbaugh's every move.

The Michigan Wolverines football coach and his program have been under heavy scrutiny in recent weeks following accusations of sign-stealing. The coverage of the scandal has hit a crescendo as there are reports indicating the Big 10 could hand down a punishment as soon as today.

The news has left everyone wondering if Harbaugh would travel with his team to this weekend's highly anticipated top-ten matchup against the Penn State Nittany Lions. Thanks to local reporters, we got pictures and videos of Harbaugh stepping on the team bus.

Best of all, we could see what sneakers Harbaugh wore, which did not disappoint. Harbaugh wore a pair of team-issued Nike College Air Max SYSTM sneakers in a maze and navy 'Michigan' colorway. Below is what fans must know about the lifestyle sneakers.

Michigan is one of a handful of NCAA athletic programs sponsored by Jordan Brand. That designation gives athletes, coaches, and fans the best of both worlds. They get to represent Jumpman and Nike with their apparel and footwear.

Harbaugh showed that by wearing the Nike College Air Max SYSTM, which is available in nine team colorways for $110 in adult sizes on the Nike website. The Michigan Air Max SYSTM combines 19980s vibes with school pride. The visible Max Air cushioning pairs with a sleek, sport-inspired upper. It's Air Max delivering again for Wolverines fans everywhere.

No one knows which direction this story could take next. However, we can always count on Nike and Jordan Brand to keep Michigan's entire athletic department looking sharp. Follow FanNationKicks.com for all your sneaker news.
