Harbaugh rumor...
My parents live about 20 minutes north of Ann Arbor, and I just talked to them. Apparently one of their friends is a Real Estate agent that has very recently been showing some extremely high end houses to a "Mrs. Harbaugh." I am still not going to be convinced until it's a done deal, but the stars seem to be aligning at this point... (crosses fingers and prays...)
MOD EDIT - I initially took this down, but you know, it's pretty funny. We'll keep it for a bit longer. - LSA

But what if they are looking at houses on Bay Ridge Dr. or North Bay Drive or maybe even Bay Hill Court? Best of both worlds, am I right?

You know how some people have winter homes or summer homes? She's just looking for a fall/autumn home.

This search was missing this rumor.....
It's a classic of ANY coach search.
Bravo.
December 17th, 2014 at 3:49 PM ^
this and flight aware...

I still occassionally check FlightAware to see if the block on tracking has expired. I figure it might automatically expire at some point.
I have problems.

Kidding. you're completely normal.

segue to the theme song of this search: The Happening. With apologies to the Supremes 1967 No. 1 hit, we take parody liberties and present our version of The Happening.
Hey Jim take a look at us, we can see your reality
Cause when we needed a coach, we urged UM to shake you from your 49er world,
One day our search woke up, suddenly just woke up to it's happening
We're hoping you're gonna find it better to leave your NFL future behind
Cause when you get a long distance call from your old school
You can only ignore it for so long before you realize the happening
One day you're team is up, then you turn around
You find your coaching world is upside down
It happened to us, and now its happening to you
You were sure, no doubt secure, until the Niners took a 7-7 detour
So, now we're riding high on the prospect of biding our time
Because the insiders are betting on the happening, Suddenly It's Happening
We saw our program fall apart, our dreams crushed by Bo's death and mediocrity
Cause when we lost our guide, we went from Lloyd, to RR and Fergodsakes Brady in the
blink of an eye
When that happens, something inside calls for a guaranteeed Michjgan Man to stem the tide
Because we've seen our program divide
It's not all dreams, smiling Denard and Sugar Bowl bliss,
Our passion was stirred by your fearless mentor and now it can happen with you
Ooh, and then we pushed to make it happen
Ooh, and then we were told we were crazy to think it could happen
Ooh, and then we waited to make sure it might happen
Ooh, and now the insiders are betting it could happen
Is this real, is it fake, is the push for your hiring a mistake
Cause if we lose the coach we thought was ours
For certain, we'll start hurting
Yeah, you may not come and break our pretty baloon
And we'll wake up and realize it's not happening
So sure, but not so secure, we'll seek your hire until an NFL detour
Cause when a program's sole desire is Bo's old qb
You don't lose sight of what you can't take care of until it's really happening

sorry this just screams bullshit
December 17th, 2014 at 3:48 PM ^
blog has? It has to be true.
Furthermore, I have a friend who has a friend who has a friend who saw Mrs. Harbaugh at Zingerman's Deli and she was asking if they had any Frequent Customer Programs.

Why didn't you set your daughter-in-law straight? Some father you are. Maybe you were just so thrilled that Jimmy is coming home...
December 17th, 2014 at 6:31 PM ^
I think you meant 'cumming'
amirite? or what?
December 17th, 2014 at 5:25 PM ^
there can't be more than 100,000 Mrs. Harbaughs in the US....
December 17th, 2014 at 3:46 PM ^
you could be the new Wolverine Devotee.
December 17th, 2014 at 3:59 PM ^
First, we need to go through the Olbermann "MGoBlog Reports" stage, followed by the Brian and Ace careful investigation, and then the definitive (but unverified) journalistic tour de force.
December 17th, 2014 at 4:01 PM ^
Aren't there like 10-20 Wolverine Devotee's now? A new one every day?
December 17th, 2014 at 4:07 PM ^

and Saban in Austin
December 17th, 2014 at 4:05 PM ^
Exactly. i remember when a friend of mine whose mom works in the AD department swore up and down that she had actually seen the written up contract in the last coaching change.
December 17th, 2014 at 3:46 PM ^
Are they buying Gruden Manor?
December 17th, 2014 at 3:46 PM ^
Bill Cowher was doing the same thing in Cleveland 5 years ago.
December 17th, 2014 at 3:47 PM ^
Wasn't Jon Gruden buying a house back in 2010?
BiSB beat me to it-- damn...
December 17th, 2014 at 3:58 PM ^
Yes. It's Gruden's house that's being shown to Mrs Harbaugh.
December 17th, 2014 at 4:04 PM ^
No, he decided to just shack up with Mike Tirico
December 17th, 2014 at 3:46 PM ^
rate, I'm good with it.
December 17th, 2014 at 3:46 PM ^
His house in CA isn't listed for sale yet. Maybe they'll keep it as a summer/vacation home?
December 17th, 2014 at 3:47 PM ^
December 17th, 2014 at 3:54 PM ^
December 17th, 2014 at 3:47 PM ^
December 17th, 2014 at 3:47 PM ^
December 17th, 2014 at 3:49 PM ^
At least then we could vet it for it's authenticity...
December 17th, 2014 at 3:47 PM ^
Like Mrs. Gruden, for example?
December 17th, 2014 at 3:47 PM ^
This is far too similar to the "my boy works at Willow Run and just saw Jim Harbaugh" rumor that one of buddies told me in 2011. Jesus I hope it's true though.
December 17th, 2014 at 3:47 PM ^
December 17th, 2014 at 3:48 PM ^
December 17th, 2014 at 6:48 PM ^
For attention?
December 17th, 2014 at 3:48 PM ^
Are you the same guy that posted this in one of the Michigan Football facebook groups last week?
