Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh interviewed with the Vikings this past week but ultimately did not land the job with the club. If the Wolverines’ leader is to be believed, it may have been his last attempt to get back into the NFL.
On Thursday, Harbaugh gave an interview to Mitch Albom of the Detroit Free Press, delving into what made him interview for the Minnesota gig along with his plans for the future now that he is not NFL-bound.
The gist? Harbaugh says that he was contacted by the Vikings and interviewed because it was “tugging” at him that he came so close to winning a Super Bowl. But after the interview process concluded without Harbaugh getting a job offer, his mindset changed.
