I get San Diego rents space from the Los Angeles Rams in the beautiful City of Inglewood and that they have a talented QB…but why would Harbaugh want to work for quite possibly the worst owner in the NFL?

Vegas always seems to know something we don't.  They had Michigan favored in every game this season even when the deck seemed stacked against them.  I'd be willing to trust Vegas at this point.

I prefer to see harbaugh go nfl and protect his legacy as a michigan champion. Will be challenging next year with no qb ala john okorn 2017. Harbaugh needs to be in nfl and ohio state will have to suck on it getting best by him 3 years in row

Ya know, we, and the media just always act like "if Harbaugh wants the job, it's his". But Jim is well-known to be a "quirky" dude. He isn't everyone's cup 'o tea. I am certain there are owners who know that, no matter how good he is, hiring him would be a disaster for ME

NFL openings are not rare, exactly, but there are only a few each year. It's certainly possible that even if he's decided to go to the NFL right now, he may not even get an offer. It does take two to tango, as they say. 

Then what?

He kinda loses his leverage to demand unusual contract terms unless he's actually willing to not sign ANYWHERE. Does he refuse to sign a new contract at M and just ride on the old one?

It is because he is finishing runner up or lower than 3rd place in the NFL job openings. I'm a bit worried about the Patriots. But I hope Jim returns. If Jim is back, may be JJ  may change his mind about the draft.
