00:03 - Now I saw yesterday several reports saying
00:06 that Jim Harbaugh was on the verge
00:09 or maybe potentially gonna sign an extension,
00:11 but I also saw something that said
00:13 that maybe he wanted to go through the NFL coaching cycle,
00:16 but I didn't follow up.
00:17 I gotta be honest, later in the day.
00:18 Was there anything more to this?
00:20 Did anything get done officially
00:21 or were these just speculation or rumors?
00:24 - No, I mean, there is substantial reporting
00:29 that five years, 55 million is on the table,
00:32 provided he doesn't flirt with the NFL anymore.
00:35 So what's that tells you?
00:36 That tells you that Michigan isn't worried
00:38 about the NCAA investigation
00:40 or what further penalties might come to Jim Harbaugh.
00:43 I think they should do everything in their power
00:45 to get him to stay.
00:47 Michigan's 38 and three the last three years.
00:49 The only team with a better record is Georgia.
00:52 They're in kind of a golden age for them.
00:54 They beat the Buckeyes three years in a row.
00:56 It's their best stretch of football since 1997 to 99
01:00 with Lloyd Carr when they had three straight seasons
01:02 with 10 or more wins.
01:03 And I mean, for me, Jim Harbaugh has always been better
01:07 for college football than he would be in the NFL.
01:09 He'd be a great coach for the Chargers.
01:11 He'd be a great coach for the Bears,
01:13 but you can't tell me there isn't a more polarizing
01:16 personality other than maybe Dion or Nick Saban
01:19 in the college game than Jim Harbaugh.
01:21 Craig, let me ask you a question.
01:23 Are you rooting for Alabama against Michigan?
01:25 Because a lot of people are, which is stunning to me.
