Sam Webb says two of his sources are telling him Harbaugh to Michigan is unlikely
"The feeling of two sources that know and talk to Harbaugh (one of which has been actively selling the 49ers coach on the virtues of returning to Michigan) is that he isn’t likely to choose college over the pros. It’s a sentiment that has grown stronger over the past few days."

The use of "big cat".... well played sir

I hope this shit ends soon cause I'm getting absolutely no work done this week.

I hope no mgocitizen's job security depends on a highly productive December and early January.

A writer for one of the Detroit papers told me "people close to Harbaugh" say the deal is almost done for him to come here. "Why don't you write that then?" I asked. "Because my editors don't think 'people close to Harbaugh' is a good-enough source. i'm working on it."
So there's that.
December 4th, 2014 at 8:29 AM ^
wait, what???? Did that just get said on air by Sam or are you saying someone from one of the papers actually told you, or are you straight messing with my mind cause I can't handle that right now.
December 4th, 2014 at 8:46 AM ^
Someone from a paper told me that. Trust me i'm not messing with your mind. I can't handle that right now either.
i loved the post a couple days ago wherein someone said WHY DO I CARE ABOUT THIS SO MUCH.
Exactly how i feel
December 4th, 2014 at 9:57 AM ^
Right now, I do not care that you could be completely making this up to mess with us, or that your source could be making it up to mess with you, or that this could all be a fever dream brought on by my lack of sleep and jet lag.
Right now I'm going to believe that you are the most reliable informant on the internet since the development of ARPANET.
December 4th, 2014 at 8:42 AM ^
Where is that from? do you have a link?
December 4th, 2014 at 8:52 AM ^
I logged in just to tell you that that's bullshit. Link or it never happened.
December 4th, 2014 at 9:04 AM ^
He's referencing a personal conversation he had so he can't link it.

that will result in a stack overflow.

Ever.
And it is so, so sad that I got the joke.

I remember several times when "sources" said Les Miles to Michigan was a "done deal". I'll believe it when it's officially announced
December 4th, 2014 at 10:52 AM ^
We heard the same things in 2011. Even the classic "Les Miles' wife has bought a house in Ann Arbor" spiel
December 4th, 2014 at 11:16 AM ^
Not Les Miles' wife... It was JON GRUDEN'S wife. CUMONG, man! Get your facts right!

There was a situation which showed the Freep has no journalistic integrity whatsoever.

Maybe Hardbaugh isn't being honest with Sam's sources to keep speculation down during the NFL season.
December 4th, 2014 at 8:27 AM ^
December 4th, 2014 at 9:58 AM ^
This guy who said Harbaugh was not going to go to the 49ers and would probably end up at Michigan four years ago?
December 4th, 2014 at 12:27 PM ^
I had no idea Frank Caliendo said that, and anyway, why would you listen to that guy? Geez.

All the important people inside and outside the Athletic Department need to be united and support him 100%. It doesn't matter what us average fans do, it matters what the former players, coaches, etc. do. If it's Harbaugh, can't see it being a problem. If it's someone else-anyone else-they all need to get over it and love them some new Michigan coach. The infighting that apparently has been going on since Bo died is the biggest factor in screwing up the program, IMO.

That's the funniest thing I've read this week. Good one.

about this coaching hire? Do we know for sure if Hackett has reached out? I keep thinking this could all be solved with one .99 for the first minute phone call.
December 4th, 2014 at 8:39 AM ^
already a few times, until Jim says no himself there is still hope... at his last presser he avoided any questions about Michigan, to me if he wasn't leaving the NFL he would have shot them down right then and there...
December 4th, 2014 at 8:43 AM ^
I agree to an extent. Though he wasn't asked directly about taking the job, rather "what he thought" about what was going on here. The way he treated even that though was pretty smoky.

I just want a coach the majority can get excited about. This program lacks excitement and optimism. Unfortunately, there seem to be only a couple of guys who fulfill that requirement.
December 4th, 2014 at 8:47 AM ^
Someone needs to start taking WolvDev's measurements for his straitjacket.
December 4th, 2014 at 8:51 AM ^
Disappointing perhaps, but I can't see how this is a surprise to anyone.
If he's not coming I hope there's a plan A, B, and C going and serious ones.
It looks like Ohio States case of the stars aligning for Urban isn;t going to happen for Michigan and while that sucks, it may be for the best to get the fan base past this whole pining for something that will never happen.
December 4th, 2014 at 8:52 AM ^
That sucks if true but that just means it's time call Uncle Les and get him to AA.
