Jim Harbaugh’s NFL interest has been a constant storyline throughout the coach’s tenure at Michigan, and that is not going away despite the Wolverines’ success. As Michigan prepares to play in the College Football Playoff national championship, Harbaugh could leave the school for the NFL after the game regardless of the result.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter joined the Pat McAfee Show to discuss Harbaugh, and the insider explained what it would take for Harbaugh to jump back to the NFL.
“He hasn’t signed an extension with Michigan yet. He has hired an agent, Don Yee, who has deep NFL connections. He’s got Michigan one game away from a national championship,” Schefter said. “I believe that the NFL will help dictate or determine whether or not he goes. If there’s an NFL team out there that really wants him, that makes a really compelling offer, my sense is that he would be interested, absolutely, in listening and entertaining that offer.”
