As Michigan football gets set for kickoff against Arkansas State today, the team are honoring Harden's memory with head coach Sherrone Moore and several players wearing blue T-shirts displaying a maize letter 'G' on the chest. The Wolverines have also added a decal to the back of the iconic winged helmet in honor of Harden.

On Sept. 12, 2024, the Michigan community lost a guiding light. Greg Harden, the longtime Wolverines administrator and mental coach to thousands of Michigan student-athletes, passed away at 75 due to complications from surgery.
