Tolbert is protege of Mike Gittleson, an innovator & leader who was @umichfootball strength coach under Bo & Carr. Kevin does it right, too

Tolbert, Harbaugh’s former S&C guy at Stanford and San Francisco, should be a home-run hire.
Kevin Tolbert left NFL to join Harbaugh in 2009. Asked why then? “I live by my gut a lot. I met him and I thought, ‘This is my kind of guy.’
