New Tweet from Joe Pequeno re: Harbaugh
This is similar to his tweet from 7:00 PM yesterday. If nothing else, this confirms that the status quo hasn't changed (for better or worse) as of 3:01 PM today.
For what it's worth, John U. Bacon tweeted yesterday that Pequeno's reporting on this story has been pretty spot on as far as he can tell and that Pequeno has had things before most other reporters (things that JUB says have checked out).
Edit: Pequeno clarified in the comments that he was "just informed about verbal agreement." So that's the bit of information that's new and different from his tweets from yesterday.
Source says verbal agreement in place for Jim Harbaugh to become new Michigan coach. No contracts signed, but UM feels real confident.

Brown Bear be reasonin' like Emeril be seasonin'
December 27th, 2014 at 3:07 PM ^
Oh man, this is such exciting new information.
This verbal agreement has been in place since before Hoke was fired.
December 27th, 2014 at 3:08 PM ^
Pretty much what we thought we knew, but it's nice to see someone outside the Michigan community reporting it as well.
December 27th, 2014 at 3:08 PM ^
The Ron Paul gif!

Who is the source ?

Joe Mothafuckin' Pequeno. Everyone's new favorite Arizona sportscaster.
December 27th, 2014 at 3:09 PM ^
If this is Harbaugh then we could Harbaugh Harbaugh by next Harbaugh? Thats Harbaugh....just Harbaugh.
December 27th, 2014 at 3:43 PM ^
Responses like this are a bit stale.
A week ago called, it wants its joke back.

While calling a joke "stale" you use the old "the blank called they want their blank back"?
Hi pot this is kettle..... you're black.

This is old news.

We're blowing our chance at Joe Moglia!

damn it, tile sucked me in
December 27th, 2014 at 3:13 PM ^
How is that tweet any different than this one from yesterday?
Source says, Harbaugh will tell SF team after Sunday's game and be introduced Tuesday. Once again, nothing signed, but UM confident.
December 27th, 2014 at 3:16 PM ^
Well, for one, he tweeted the second one at 3:01 PM today, just 15 minutues ago. There's value in knowing that the latest is still the latest, i.e., that nothing has changed for the worse. It's also possible that a contract could have been signed since his tweet yesterday, especially with Hackett in CA right now. This tweet confirms that that hasn't happened yet, again, as of 3:01 PM today.
December 27th, 2014 at 3:20 PM ^
Usually the way "reporting" goes, you will put that modifier in.
Like: "An update...still no contract signed. UM still confident. No news here is good news."
Or just not say anything at all when you have nothing new.
The fact that he chose neither leads me to believe he's just after some spotlight and retweets.
December 27th, 2014 at 3:28 PM ^
^This
December 27th, 2014 at 3:46 PM ^
That's a valid point. People are asking him to clarify. I will update the OP if he does.
Edit: Pequeno confirmed in the comments that he was "just informed about verbal agreement." So that's the bit of info that's different from the tweet from yesterday that you posted above. I've update the OP with this info.
December 27th, 2014 at 3:12 PM ^
verbal agreement = sacred bond
December 27th, 2014 at 4:09 PM ^
Not quite as sacred as a pinky swear though
December 27th, 2014 at 3:13 PM ^
I can't wait until pen hits paper.
December 27th, 2014 at 3:16 PM ^
Still good news, definitely old, still I will be shittin until that contract is signed.

Is there any conceivable way harbaugh doesn't come? He, rightly or wrongly, would be seen as Benedict Arnold.

With Jim Harbaugh coming Home will @Clark8Chris recommit? I'll definitely be jumping for Joy

Part of me wants to say 'bump that' ... But that's the dumb part of me.
December 27th, 2014 at 3:21 PM ^
That's would be really nice. He would fit perfectly in Harbaugh's offense.
December 27th, 2014 at 3:23 PM ^
People need to stop tweeting recruits... But, OK.
December 27th, 2014 at 3:17 PM ^
I think everyone knows there is an agreement in place. my concern is the continued highlighting of no signed contract (another known fact) and that UM feels confident (not UM is confident)
December 27th, 2014 at 3:20 PM ^
They are not "highlighting" not contract. Its an obvious follow up question if you don't mention it. It does take some time to get in place a contract worth around 50 million.
December 27th, 2014 at 3:26 PM ^
if you say verbally agreed to coach team, everyone knows a contract hasn't been signed. no need to add it in there.

Awwww we are engaged to Jim Harbaugh
December 27th, 2014 at 3:22 PM ^
We went to Jared!

ain't a damn thing at Jared that costs as much as what Jim MF'in Hackett proposed to Jim MF'in Harbaugh with. Pretty sure he went to Tiffany's, Harry Winston's and Cartier on his way to SanFrancisco.
December 27th, 2014 at 3:19 PM ^
Dont know how to embed but whats up with Brians last cryptic tweet about the birthday wishes tweet
December 27th, 2014 at 3:22 PM ^
Its not cryptic really. He is just highlighting the fact that now the twitter account has to give birthday wishes to other alumni now after doing so with Harbaugh. They tweeted one to Hemingway as well.
Chill out. Nothing to worry about.
December 27th, 2014 at 3:23 PM ^
Ahh i get it now.... Quick to panic lmao
December 27th, 2014 at 3:27 PM ^
It's in reference to a tweet about Junior Hemingway getting a social media birthday message along with a few others. Seems as if the stunt for Harbaugh now has Michigan Twitter/Facebook doing those for all former players now. Nothing to worry about.
December 27th, 2014 at 3:20 PM ^
The check has been in the mail.
Sign on the line that is dotted!
