The rumors began to circulate late Saturday night that Michigan had offered Jim Harbaugh a three-year extension. While some of the finer details varied, most were consistent in that the deal included a lower base salary. On Monday night, trusted Michigan insider John U. Bacon appeared to confirm the rumors in a series of tweets.

"UM AD Warde Manuel has discussed with Jim Harbaugh a new contract with a lower base salary and buyout, though with good provisions to hire top assistants and large incentives for performance.”

“Harbaugh can now accept, negotiate, or decline. At least five NFL teams have expressed an interest in hiring him - per usual - though not clear if any have made firm offers yet.”

Lol at all the posters who said the NFL wouldn't want him anymore.

I could see him going to the Texans or Chargers and turning them around overnight.

So he burns out again after 3-5 years? I’ll pass.

Please let him go back to the pros and stop destroying the UM football program any further.

Overdramatic much? What was Michigan doing before he got there?

Ok I’ll admit that my post was a bit over dramatic. However, since he’s been there, he’s been underwhelming. He’s beaten the opponents he’s supposed to but really has struggled against opponents that were good.

Yea they weren’t special prior to Harbaugh getting there, but in my opinion, he hasn’t been much better than his predecessors. While the program may remain in mediocrity, as a fan, I don’t want to settle for that.

He's definitely underachieved. He's really struggled with his evaluations. The best thing for him would be to go back to the NFL, with a GM building the roster, so he can just focus on coaching.

I completely agree. As a UM fan, I’m ready for a change. It may not result in better results, but keeping Harbaugh won’t result in better results either.

I think he's struggled to cheat because Michigan thinks they're above it and in college, if you ain't cheating, you're not winning anything of substance.

I can see him either with the Bears or Michigan next year.

I would hire him as an NFL coach. Just think he's too offputting to recruit well enough at the highest levels of CFB. Can't really find much wrong with his NFL record though.

Sounds like a good candidate for the LSU gig.

Or the Falcons. That's who I want them to hire, but unfortunately Arthur Blank isn't that bright. He needs to sell the team.

Awfully convenient of Harbaugh to have all these unsubstantiated interest from the NFL while he’s renegotiating his contract

Maybe he can asked Gregg Williams for one of those written offers he gets to become an NFL head coach
