re: Report: Michigan to offer Harbaugh 6 years/49 Million

quote:

The number is leaked from michigan side. Not jh and his agent. It is a leak not planted.

The hiring process is like this:

Michigan called jh agent asking we want you, are you interesed? This happened in nov before Maryland game

Jh said yeah we will listen.

Michigan said how about 8 yrar 49 million?

Jh side said too low.

Back and forth, ok, settle on 6 years, 49 millions.

Jh side will say if you offer, we will accept. At this point, les miles and his agent knew the michigan job is almost out of reach. This happened monday. Les talked to Media that night. that day i started the 'feel bad for miles' thead and said it is a done deal that jh will come to michigan. you can check it.


Michigan sent out official offer yesterday. And someone in michigan will leak the news. This happens all the time. It can be the secretary or hr or anybody.

Today jh and his agent will go over it to make sure there is no hidden traps etc.

So the chance jh come to ann arbor is 90%. The negotiations already done. long before the media report the numbers.

If jh accepts the formal offer, Michigan and jh will be quiet until 49ers season is over and Michigan call the conference. nobody is going to mention the money. media will get it from public record request later.


Otherwise, Michigan will move on to the next target.
