Just saw that the Vikings (boo) have reached out to him. Apparently he has a good relationship with the new GM.
Harbaugh to Vikings?

Kind of my sentiment too. I do think he's a better coach than he has gotten credit for by some, but man he's such a punchable douchebag. That's okay. I've got my new team. Go Bengals! Was going to be a Raiders fan henceforth until they hired that goofball from the Patriots. Sheesh. McDaniels? Really? The interim guy did maybe the coaching job of the year in the NFL and you let him go for McDaniels? Davis gonna Davis.

To get a coach that went 44 and 19 and went to a Super Bowl? Weird flex, bro. But it's not confirmed yet.Sux to be a Viqueen fan now…

Harbaugh killed it in the NFL. He could have just about any job he desired in the league.
Will be very interested in seeing who Michigan can find after this recent coaching carousel craziness. There's only scraps left out there at this point.
I think Urban will lay low for a couple of years to let all of the Jax stink wear off. His next move will be back to broadcasting. If he really wanted to return to CF, he would have went after the USC job as LA / California has everything he's after.
Guarantee if he goes to the Vikes he doesn’t repeat or come close to what he did with the 9ers. Singeltary had all the pieces prior, just couldn’t put the whole puzzle together.
Hell Hairball got lucky cause brother tossed him Macdonald from the Ravens to help him last year with Meatchicken. JMO/Flex.
I disagree. First, every new coach has an old coach's players. Second, San Fran went from 6-10 under Singletary to 13-3, uh, quite a difference. Third, Harbaugh won at SDSU and Stanford, neither of which are known for winning, then San Fran and ultimately took Michigan to a chance to win the championship. He may not be the most likable guy but he can coach.
I don't like the guy, but I don't doubt he could coach them up within 2 to 3 years to probably an NFC championship game at the minimum. So maybe I am warming up to him after all.
Didn't Michigan blindside him and cut his salary from 8M to 4M? He simply returning the favor by flying to Minnesota to become the head coach of the Vikings on national signing day.
I've always thought he was a good coach. It's just that he's a dick and the players in San Fran got sick of him. IMO, his coaching style is probably better tolerated by college players who know they only have to put up with him for so long .... or they can transfer.
If I may correct you ----- 9 hours too long. To say he's an a-hole is being too kind.
Let's be honest, Harbaugh benefitted from a horrible OSU defense in 2021 (and 2020). Everybody moved the ball against OSU in 2020 and 2021 which resulted in the gutting of their defensive staff (minus Larry Johnson), Doubt if we see that again in 2022.
It came up in his interview. He was touring facilities and it was going well. Later in the day, they asked him what went wrong in San Fran and he did not answer the question well. Things went south from there. He operated under the assumption that the job was his. Major, major miscalculation.
They will be hiring a new coach this year. I don't think they will be looking again in 23.
