In the last two years, Jim Harbaugh has followed up a successful season coaching the Michigan Wolverines by looking for opportunities in the NFL.
John Harbaugh, head coach of the Baltimore Ravens and brother of Jim, thinks those yearly attempts to leave college football are officially behind Jim now.
John told reporters on Thursday that he expects his brother to stay with Michigan for the rest of his career.
“I feel like, again, you talk about providence too, and it’s good work; I think he’s really good about that. He talked about, ‘Make no oath for the future.’ I think he’s honest about that,” Harbaugh said, via ProFootballTalk. “That’s probably the difference with him and all these other guys who act like they’re not open about opportunities that come along. Jim is open about it. I think his players respect that; his coaches respect that. And he’s just an open book, man. He’s a fun guy to be around. I saw some of the Michigan guys here, [and] they just laugh about how fun it is to play there and what a good guy he is.
“So, I think he’s at Michigan for life, probably, but then again, maybe God’s got other plans. So, we’ll see.”
Of course, Harbaugh also said he was done chasing the NFL two years ago and then he went and did it again the following year, so don’t expect too many football fans to believe either Harbaugh brother on this topic.
