How much would you pay for a pair of khakis? Now, ask yourself: how much would you pay for a pair of khakis worn by Michigan football coach Jim Harbaugh?
This week at the 2017 Michigan Bust, the team’s end-of-year awards banquet hosted by the U of M Club of Detroit, a silent auction was held for a pair of khakis signed by Harbaugh himself. However, things did not go as planned.
The auction started at $900.
That price turned out to be too steep for those in attendance, so zero bids were placed.
The khakis came in a giant frame which read “Those who stay will be champions across the top. At the bottom of the frame, a photo of Harbaugh was placed along with two Michigan block M logos.

Other items auctioned off were a Bo Schembechler oil painting, Michigan branded luggage and many other things. Perhaps the coolest piece of memorabilia, however, was the replica Little Brown Jug.
