Harbaugh rejected Michigan as his heart is in the NFL

Michigan's coaching search is a joke

The idea that an NFL coach would go to college is laughable


but the NFL reporter I want to troll the most already blocked me on twitter and wrote an angry post about how Michigan fans are disgusting and he wishes we were all dead

:smith:

score one for the stupid blogs that everyone shits on but actually had sources other than nfl agents

It was that Greg Gabe or whatever dude

whatever, I'm sure Harbaugh is actually going to Oakland because someone on twitter made up a report that the 49ers gave them permission and everyone decided that was true after spending weeks making GBS threads on actually true reports that came from actual sources

If Harbaugh wins three B1G titles and/or one national title, they will inter him in Pharoah's Tomb Bo Schembeckler's still-intact office.

I hope he makes Michigan a force again, but goes full on nuclear every game. I want to see the university heads get so embarrassed, they desperately start looking for any excuse to get the lunatic savior the hell out of Ann Arbor.

Long live Harbaugh, may he win every game that doesn't involve Ohio State.

I'm excited because it makes Michigan competent again but I'm not that concerned, we still have the best coach and recruiter not named Nick Saban and better players. It's just exciting that the game is going to be more intense and relevant then the last decade. If there's one thing Harbaugh brings for sure it's the media storm.

I'm glad they made this decision soon as I feared an extended search would destabilize the U.S. economy and have dire effects on foreign relations.

I mean he's a good coach but I wouldn't put him on that level yet. He had one really good year at Stanford and did a good job of turning them around but it's not like he has a long history of success in the college ranks.

I feel the same way, but Harbaugh is about the closest thing to a sure-thing hire since Meyer at UF. Or Saban at Bama.

Even if he underachieves, no one would say told-ya-so to Michigan over it because literally every school in the country outside Ohio St and Bama (at the moment) would have hired him if they could have.

I completely agree it's a great hire but I'm just not ready to crown them champions of anything yet. The Big Ten is bad so they will compete but they still have to deal with Ohio State and Michigan State every year. Until proven otherwise I would still put Michigan State and Ohio State ahead of them in terms of coaching.

Maybe OSU, but I don't think MSU who took advantage of a weak big ten to be good.


Harbaugh turned Stanford around in a good Pac12 and we all know what he did in the pros.
