Harbaugh...this can't be good for recruiting, think he's looking to get back to the NFL?

Jim Harbaugh confirmed Monday he still hasn’t signed a contract extension, meaning he will enter this season as the only Power Five coach with fewer than two years remaining on his deal. Harbaugh said in the summer that a new agreement was being negotiated earlier this year, but that those discussions had been tabled since the onset of the coronavirus pandemic.
Harbaugh explained in July the contract wasn’t high on the priority list. And on Monday he maintained that was still the case.
“Just other fish, bigger fish to fry,” he said.

I've always felt that he'd eventually head back to the nfl

NFL?
He's already at his tailor-made job where he can do his weird rah-rah thing and it's not working out.
Let's also not forget that in SF he was handed a loaded roster that had no business underachieving to the extent that they did. Any team willing to make him an NFL offer is likely in far worse shape than the 2011 Niners.
Oh and there's also the thing about not being a particularly useful offensive mind. He was fortunate to catch lightning in a bottle for a little while with 2012/13 Kaepernick and Greg Roman. So between mediocre coaching and a history of alienating everyone around him, to be honest I'm not sure what he offers any NFL franchise.
I have nothing against the guy and am tremendously grateful for his service with the red and gold but I don't think he would have a prayer of successfully leading a team through an actual rebuild.

It's time to take Michigan football out back and put a bullet between its eyes

Adam Gase and every other retread was immediately rehired in the NFL. I think he'll find a willing team.

The 49ers fricked up by choosing Trent Baalke/Jim Tomsula over him.

He’s the most overrated coach of the 2000s.

Speaking of Gase and the Jets, I think the Jets would be a job Harbaugh would be very interested in if they get Trevor Lawrence.

The 49ers didn't choose Harbaugh over Baalke and Tomsula. They let him go because Harbaugh blatantly disrespected the Jed York, the owner by telling him a team meeting was for "men only" in front of all the players and coaching staff. No boss would put up with that type of insubordination from their employee.

I don't know why he can do what he did at San Diego and Stanford but is fricking up at Michigan.
Maybe he's just old now and the NFL broke him a little bit.
He came into Stanford a complete arse...talking shite and made the biggest turnaround in CFB history.

Have they been in contract talks? I was under the impression hasn’t offered past this season.
Michigan’s best offensive player opted out of the season a few days ago. This year is gonna be rough on Michigan with what they lost last year

Yeah, I think the best D back and best receiver opted out. And no one really knows if Milton legitimately beat out McCaffrey or McCaffrey left for other reasons. There should be enough talent to go 6-2, but I also wouldn't be surprised to see them open with losses to Minny and MSU, and now you're looking at 3-5.

There's really no denying he's had an incredible career for someone on the spectrum.

Even Harbaugh, who doesn’t like to talk about himself, has a fascinating Jim Harbaugh story to tell.
The lantern-jawed coach was sitting at a table in a conference room at the Hyatt Regency in Chicago on a midsummer afternoon. He leaned forward on the edge of his chair, his eyes wide, as he recalled a moment from his days at Stanford.
As he explained it, he was on his way to the office when he noticed a traffic light wasn’t working; a cop was standing in the middle of a busy intersection, directing cars this way and that way. The female officer displayed such command of the intersection that Harbaugh pulled over to the side of the road, mesmerized.
For half an hour, Harbaugh sat in his car and studied the scene. He was nearly late for practice because he was so enthralled with the skill and the savvy of the traffic cop. “I like to watch people doing their job at the highest level,” he said. “I really do.”

This is actually good news if you’re a Michigan fan. They should make a push for Fickell or Matt Campbell.

Michigan's QB play being so shitty after Harbaugh spent years proving that he knew what he was doing with QBs at USD, Stanford, and San Francisco is staggering. I really didn't expect this at all.

He's not a good college coach.
Someone will give him an NFL job.

2003-2010:
SF did not have winning season in the 8 years prior to Harbaugh.
2011-2014:
Harbaugh spent 4 years in SF. They had 3 winning seasons, two division titles, a SB appearance, and his worst season was 8-8.
Harbaugh won 70% of his games.
2015-2018:
SF had 4 consecutive losing seasons, and won a total of 17 games.
It’s hard to completing ignore Harbaugh’s accomplishments with the 49ers. He might not be a long term solution, but he has proven he can turn around a suffering franchise with a terrible front office.
