CC: Harbaugh should reject Michigan and coach the Raiders... according to NFL.com
Headline says it all. If this isn't a huge sign that the NFL is getting nervous about having one of their premiere names leave for the college ranks, I don't know what is.

These Idiots are helping the cause.
My analogy is that my father has to quit work due to health issues at the prime of my career. He and mom are both decining and need me to come home and help them.
Then, a company close to their home offers me a 50% salary hike. What luck! I can honor my family AND get a lifestyle uptick. The gods are my friends!
Then, some idiots at my present job say I should let my parents fend for themselves because this is my life and I shouldn't have to cater to the needs of my parents. Then they lecture me on money not being everything.
I wouldn't even respond.
Asshats.

The NFL has turned into a sad cult for old dudes, and it's disappointing. The whole Goddell "protect the shield" mantra has trickled down so far that grown ass men are willing to lick the teat of anything remotely related to the "National Football League."

You mean -- he got a good 2-hour rest while he fell asleep during that movie, too, like me?
BY THE WAY -- anyone ever notice, the catchphrase "May the odds ever be in your favor" is like a direct ripoff from "May the force be with you."

I liked the first two but Mockingjay was not all that. Too bad.

NFL has no-tampering rules where a team can't negotiate w/ another team's coach.
Yet... the NFL itself can encourage SF's coach to go to Oakland? While he's still SF's coach?
And on top of that -- the Dolphins and Jets and Bears and Falcons don't get a say in that?
WHAT AM I MISSING??? I mean, you can't just say it's some guy's opinion. He's not a journalist or independent source. He's on the NFL'S OWN EFFING WEBSITE.

First of all, Davis would have to make Harbaugh a $12 million offer in order to compete with Michigan's current offer because of where they reside,
The Raiders are an NFL pit of doom and I hate the fact that Charles Woodson opted to put himself in it. But are you saying that Harbaugh is going to Oakland to turn into a SB contender bedause it has Derek Carr and a potential high draft pick?
Hearbaugh enhances his career at Michigan just by coming to Ann Arbor. It s a perfect fit, and the the author acknowledges it. To me, he spends an inordinant amount of space trying to convince a captive audience to stay put without any conviciton. You have to go to a dungeon franchise on the prowl to possibly move because Raiders, and this is also the last place in northern Califofrnia whefre Harbaugh hasn't coached.

there are only a handful of teams where you can have the same longetivity that you would have in certain college teams....the Patriots, Steelers and Giants.

Say what you want about Michigan football's bathing in a lake of fire.........but the Oakland Raiders?
Piles of NFL dough and Harbaugh's competitive nature? That's it?
This is the same NFL team that has a consistent track record for imbibing new coaches, grinding them down into a chymey bolus, and then spitting them out after 2 or 3 years.
Can't ruled it out, but why put yourself and your family through that kind of horseshit, when you can be a living legend much easier in Ann Arbor?

I have never seen a coaching search of any kind, be so Polarizing in the media. For whatever reason, all of these so-called "experts" are weighing in with their opinions...what they heard...things they "know" blah blah blah.
Why? Clickbait... getting clicks and revenues, is really the only reason for it that I can see...that and the Ego factor of being 'in the know'.

I think it's hilarious that Adam Schein thinks anyone should care about what Adam Schein thinks is someone else's best road to happiness. Even I'm not that arrogant.

My only guess that he hasn't done that yet if he plans on staying in the NFL is leverage. Otherwise I like Michigans chances.

It's like leaving the NFL for college will personally hurt these reporters' souls or something lol.

The Raiders should move to South America and take up soccer.

These writers who are defending the cartel are starting to get on my last nerve. So, I have a question for the Roger Goodell "butt boys" -- you say that Harbaugh's desire to win a Super Bowl will keep him from taking the Michigan job. Do you seriously think the Oakland Raiders are going to win a Super Bowl within the next four years? Or the Jets? Or the Dolphins? Or the Bears? If you do, I'll have some of what you're having!!
