The university and his coaches are behind him and he'll be competing for a National Championship soon. The NCAA hasn’t even released the details. The school went from “we are going to fight this” to “we will take our medicine” in a matter of a couple of days. The evidence is overwhelming and they’ll be forced to act. Harbaugh will probably just go on his own and leave the ashes behind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuvian Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Tap the brakes here folks. I think what we need is a nice guy who won't make waves at One Bills Drive.

Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 6 minutes ago, Koufax said: I happen to like him as a personality, and his level headed intensity and commitment to and success at playing good football. What I like most is a .624 winning percentage and four straight playoff appearances, and five in six years. I do not like having a HC with coordinator duties on either side of the ball. We all know Bellichick is involved heavily in the defense, sometimes without a true DC and it works, but I don't love McD in that role. I like his personality too. Frankly I don't get the people on here who think he's a d-bag. Guy literally stopped a football game for one of his players after a life-threatening incident. Most coaches probably continue that game. Now Harbaugh? He is a d-bag. Pretty big one. Can't stand the guy. But frankly if we could bring him here, I'd be for it. He's had quite a track record of success. He got to a super bowl with Colin Kaepernick, even if they came up short that's pretty impressive considering CK was later benched for Blaine Gabbert of all people. McD has the winning percentage, but let's not pretend like Josh isn't the biggest reason for that. Look at even a great coach like Belichick without Brady. QB rules all and we have one of the best in the biz... if McD can't win it all with JA, he isn't going to win it all with anyone. How long do we stick with him purely for the culture? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SectionC3 Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Probably wouldn’t work. They need a new approach. I like McD’s disciplined approach, but it hasn’t exactly worked. I’m on the Daboll train given his history here and the type of guy I think they need to change the atmosphere a little bit. I could even live with McD/new DC/appropriate OC (Joe Brady if the year ends well) if they want to wait a year on a guy who they think is right. But if they’re gonna clip McD, they better have a plan as to who comes in next before he’s terminated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Braylon Edwards, a former Jets WR, Michigan alum, and Big Ten Network personality, was just on The Odd Couple with Rob Broussard and Chris Parker on Fox Sports Radio. He said that the inside word is that Jim Harbaugh must win the national championship. Any loss in the finals or semi-finals would mean there is a good chance he is fired since Michigan would be disillusioned with him. So, he would then be out of a job.

TheFunPolice Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Serious question. Has Harbaugh actually coached any games for Michigan the past couple years?

I have already seen reports from news media linking him to the Bears and Panthers as teams who will be interested in him as HC. At the very least he should have an opportunity to go back to the NFL if he wants to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigDingus Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 I'd be down, and I'm not even on the fire McD bandwagon. Harbaugh has proven he can coach in the NFL, and what he was able to do with for Alex Smith's career and a QB like Kaepernick was nothing short of amazing. I imagine he'd be thrilled to see what he could do with a far superior talent at QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The previous 6 years we've been one of the 6 worst penalized teams. How is that discipline? Harbaugh's not tolerating that type of play. McDermott has exactly 2 game plans every week. 1) play zone all game, especially in the 4th quarter. 2) Ask Josh to heroically win the game late only to have your zone D blow the game. That's McDermott's idea of discipline. Edited December 2, 2023 by LABILLBACKER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLFan Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 No thanks. There is no evidence to suggest he would be more than mediocre in the NFL at this point. He has been away a long time. He is not exactly a modern day offense type thinker, and if you watch Michigan you will note a decided lack of agressiveness in game management which is what everyone is worked up about with McD. I would not trust my $250m QB to Jim Harbaugh. Pass, as if this is even a remote possibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

extrahammer Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 For the record, Harbaugh would kill this team. He's too much of a disciplinarian. The players quit on him in SF because of that and went to the owner to get him fired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimBob2232 Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 I don't understand Harbaugh. I've never once listened to him and thought "Man - I'd like to hear more from him" or "I'd run through a wall for him" or "that was inspiring" or "I wouldn't mind being in the same room as him" or "wow, what a great football mind". I always think "what a weird a** dude...." Obviously he wins. So I guess thats a good track record. But...how??...the guy just seems like a complete zero.

Obviously there something to this guy. Yes. im paying attention (I was actually at the Michigan/Penn State Game). I also paid attention when he had a sleepover with a kicking recruit. I recall him on Saved by the Bell. I remember him almost getting into a fight with Jim Schwartz. I recall him picking his nose and eating it. He tells his players not to eat chicken because it's a "nervous bird". He ran a football camp shirtless. Just a f'n weird persona. But I think we agree here....he wins. And apparently people like him. I don't get it. NOTHING in the public arena impresses me. maybe he is WAYYYYY different in private. doubt it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
