Jim Harbaugh said Thursday that he'll be at Michigan as long as the school wants him.
“I’m here as long as Michigan wants me here,” Harbaugh said. “And you would have had a story if I wasn’t here. But I’m here and this is where I want to be.”
Recent NFL interest in the former 49ers coach isn't new. Harbaugh met with the Minnesota Vikings after last season before the Vikings hired Kevin O'Connell. And Harbaughregarding his commitment to Michigan among interest from NFL teams this offseason. “It’s an ongoing thing, something that we treat as a positive thing that NFL franchises, NFL teams have a lot of interest in all of our personnel — coaches, players, staff,” Harbaugh said. “And if someone in our organization feels that is going to benefit them professionally and personally we say have at it.”
After a rough 2020 season that saw Harbaugh renegotiate his contract ahead of the 2021 season, the Wolverines have won back-to-back Big Ten titles and made their first two College Football Playoff appearances since the format was implemented in 2014. But Michigan has lost its semifinal games in each of those seasons, made a change at offensive coordinator this season and is also a part of an NCAA inquiry.
