Chris Balas: Jim Harbaugh has signed
Not sure where the Mich. jet is now (en route, over a mountain, etc.), but we know Harbaugh has signed to be U-M's next coach.

EDIT: More information:
Hearing now it's a 7-year deal with Harbaugh. As reported long ago, not $8 million guaranteed. With incentives, etc., could reach that ...

But no matter what everyone said about U-M having to "sweeten the pot and outbid," etc. - they didn't. This was never about money.

We can go anywhere we want for talent. This is good shit.
December 29th, 2014 at 2:11 PM ^
I cannot get over how completely awesome this is. Good times are on the way for us all.

Thanks Balas

NFL reporters: there's no buyout; he's still taking calls from NFL teams, can leave any time.
December 29th, 2014 at 2:15 PM ^
Bunch of hacks!
December 29th, 2014 at 2:12 PM ^
IT (legally) HAPPENED!
December 29th, 2014 at 2:27 PM ^
"Barely Legal?"
December 29th, 2014 at 2:12 PM ^

that up until yesterday Schefter was still rocking a Blackberry. Explains why he is only now realizing what the internet has been saying for weeks now.
December 29th, 2014 at 3:39 PM ^
That explains why he was so interested in his phone while talking about JH and UM on ESPN this morning.
December 29th, 2014 at 5:38 PM ^
What a douchebag thing to do. He's being interviewed on-air and he spends most of that time looking at his phone.
Hey asswipe, whoever is texting you doesn't know shit. You may as well pay attention to the interview.
December 29th, 2014 at 2:16 PM ^
This thing. It is good.
December 29th, 2014 at 2:16 PM ^
Hell fucking yes!!!
December 29th, 2014 at 2:17 PM ^
EVERYONE, wake up and start drinking!!!!!!!!!!
December 29th, 2014 at 2:32 PM ^
Thank you for coming back. If this is what you require, then I will oblige.
December 29th, 2014 at 2:41 PM ^
He requires macaroni pictures and popcorn necklaces.

Stick together and we can spend the rest of the night eating bear sandwiches!
December 29th, 2014 at 2:17 PM ^
Sooo... we can have nice things again?
December 29th, 2014 at 2:19 PM ^
Shefter still saying if everything was even, JH would have stayed in the NFL. That guy is Puke. He is sitting there on camera playing with his phone texting, while he is being interviewed at the same time.
December 29th, 2014 at 2:38 PM ^
That guy should take away his Michigan card. What an asshole. I lost all respect for that guy. Tool away on your phone jackass, you were wrong the whole time.

My state of well-being is still in shock. It hasn't quite hit me yet that this actually is happening. I really am at a loss of words. When he takes the podium tomorrow it will be an unbelievable feeling. I have that feeling back...I think I had become numb because of the losing, I had some positive flow a couple years ago after the Sugar Bowl, but I don't even think it felt like what I'm about to feel after I see Harbaugh's presser. GO BLUE!
December 29th, 2014 at 2:19 PM ^
Wait, I thought there had to be a press conference FIRST, before anything is official ...
:P
December 29th, 2014 at 2:19 PM ^
WHERE'S THE 100 PINTS?
December 29th, 2014 at 2:35 PM ^
Who was the poster that promised this? Looking to collect tomorrow after the bball game
December 29th, 2014 at 2:54 PM ^
Pretty sure DDS was in his username. So apparently an MGoDentist
December 29th, 2014 at 2:20 PM ^
Welcome home, Jim. Should be an interesting month for recruiting!

...are SHITTING on the NFL guys right now.
December 29th, 2014 at 2:22 PM ^
Do the players officially know yet?
December 29th, 2014 at 2:44 PM ^
After reading this I'd now really like to see MrSmith weigh in.
December 29th, 2014 at 2:24 PM ^
Anyone else feeling a superb sense of relief (is that happiness??) after the general craziness of the last month?
Time to exhale.
December 29th, 2014 at 2:22 PM ^
It's great to be a Michigan Wolverine. Hail fucking yeah!!!
December 29th, 2014 at 2:28 PM ^
As many of you know, I was so skeptical. I just couldn't believe this was going to happen, however, it is now becoming clear that Jimmy was thinking about this job for awhile now and that he wants to be here. I can't get over how awesome this all is. I don't think we can fully understand at this point how much this changes, well, everything. Way to go Boss.
December 29th, 2014 at 2:29 PM ^
I could cry I'm so happy right now.
I will be going to WALMART tomorrow to buy the same cheap ass pleated khakis Harbaugh wears. And will wear them EVERY GAME HE COACHES like I said I would back in September.
December 29th, 2014 at 2:39 PM ^
We've missed you.
December 29th, 2014 at 2:31 PM ^
Hail Harbaugh
December 29th, 2014 at 2:32 PM ^
to be, a Michigan Wolverine (haven't said this in a while)
December 29th, 2014 at 3:53 PM ^
It's always been great. Just hasn't been easy for a while.
December 29th, 2014 at 2:35 PM ^
Relief...now I can enjoy the presser and basketball game. We got our guy everyone!!!!! How does it feel?
