Schembechler may be more beloved by the traditionalist over 60 crowd, but no coach has had more current students, recruits, players, and fans go completely ga-ga over him other than Harbaugh, with the possible exception of Tom Osbourne. Certainly not at Michigan.

He still has an NFL itch and no amount of ointment(money, popularity, power, prestige) will cure it. It wouldn't surprise me by 2021 that Harbaugh and Urban Meyer are gone. Harbaugh will be in the NFL, not sure about Meyer he might go back to television or maybe dip his toe in the NFL.....don't know.
The LA Rams just made a big mistake and fired one of the most respected football coaches in the game. You may not agree with him or everything he did, but he did things the right way in St Louis. They played good defense and never got blown out, kept things close and made plays when it mattered. The next step for the Rams is probably going to be a step down from where they are right now, and their fans probably don't realize it yet.

That was very subtle. Well done.

The Rams will never be good. In the presser today, Dimoff (sp?) was calling it an organizational failure.
Duh. Watching that team up close since Kroanke took over has been brutal.
Harbaugh would not be successful there. No one will.

Much more attractive than L.A. and a pro job? Ok

You think when he took the Michigan job he didn't have other opportunities in the NFL?

Well let's ask Coach Fischer or any coach before him not named Vermeil and I guess coat tails Martz.

Harbaugh will NOT leave Michigan. Two words: "Slumber parties"

Hmm...
Complete control of everything related to football at Michigan, more money than an NFL job, a million times more job security, controlling who all of your incoming players are, and fans that love you.
Yep. I'd say that's much more attractive than L.A. and a pro job.
You must have missed the part where he's already been run out of a big market coaching job in California. His wife could charter a private jet to LA twice a week and his bank account would never even know it.

For a married man in his 40's with children, When he has past, strong ties to the program, thus job security, thus overall control...Yes.
If you are young, single, no kids, and still think nice weather, large populations, silicon, and beaches, are the most important things....No.
More and more becoming less and less difference between pro jobs and top tier college jobs in football. AD is the GM, College President/Boosters are the "owners". Until the players mature, many times both are dealing with attitudes, egos.
It's different, but not as much as it used to be.

If these are coed there is no way I'd be leaving.

There's only one reason I could see Harbaugh taking a chance to go back to the NFL. He's a fierce competitor. I could see him wanting to prove it again at the highest level. It's just who he is and what he does. It's in his blood. He may not take the LA job, but I bet at some point he'll end up back in the league.
