I think Greeny is right. Jim Harbaugh is beyond intense, which doesn't work well in the nfl. Initially Harbaugh's intensity paid off for San Fransiso, however the constant intensity coupled with the pressure to win the super bowl wore the players down. Many NFL players are against Jim Harbaugh's coaching style. The constant demand to be perfect wears on them. NFL players have much more power than players at ny other level. I believe a group of players were likely in the ears of the front office quite often. You don't throw away 46 wins, 3 NFC hampionship appearances, and a last second super bowl loss because your coach is too intense, but the 49ers did. At the college level kids come and go every year. I believe the college level provides the best opportunity to actually coach football. College football is perfect for Harbaugh in every sense of the word. Harbaugh has never stayed in one place or long, though he yearns to, which bodes well for us. Harbaugh is exactly what we need, exactly when we needed it. I believe Jim realizes that college is where his style is best suited, and Michigan is the place where he will never be ostracized for being too intense. We are so lucky the 49ers are fucking stupid, it landed us Jim Harbaugh. Had the issues with the 49ers never arose, he would not be our coach.

I think Harbaugh can coach either place.

Bottom line: He was going to have a new gig in 2015 and he loves Michigan.

As Michigan fans and alums, we're fortunate that he loves Michigan the same way we do. I struggle to say he's better in college, because he was successful both places and the average NFL career isn't really that much longer than a college career, especially if you consider some guys are in college for 5 years.
