Hello: Grace Harbaugh
On her dad's latest podcast, he shared the news that hasn't been reported anywhere else.
Grace Harbaugh (Coronado, CA/Coronado HS) has signed with Michigan Water Polo.
Michigan just got done winning their 4th straight CWPA Conference Championship yesterday. On the Harbaugh Podcast, Jim talked about how he wanted his daughter to go to Michigan but wanted her to make her own decisions. Options she considered were San Diego, Marist and several Ivy League schools that are in the CWPA along with Michigan.
Here is a photo from her signing day (far right)
Funny enough, when Harbaugh was first hired he and Grace took a photo with Head Coach Leonardi back in 2015 when he was in his first season and he tweeted the picture out.
Congratulations to the Harbaugh family! It really says a lot about Coach Harbaugh as a father and family man. This makes 3 children and his parents who have followed him to Ann Arbor. That's a helluva statement!
Fun Story.
So his daughter stayed in California while the rest of the family lived in Ann Arbor the past 4 years? That’s weird.
Daughter from first marriage
Gotcha, thanks.
Yeah! ........ cuz those teenagers love to be transplanted 2000 miles away from all their friends at the most delicate of moments in their social growth. Sooo weird.
Especially for a fan base that might have shipped him off to a completely different city by now, cuz, you know ............"rivalries".
Damn ........it's almost as if most of you have NO CLUE! about all the sacrifices made so you can complain your team runs too much on first down.
MAROOONS!
Or you know... Harbaugh has 2 kids with his first wife from a previous marriage... Jay, our RB coach and Grace.
Dont stop him, hes on a roll!
Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

...if we couldn't stop him from ripping on the Catholic Church even when Notre Dame was actively smoldering!
*NB I mean Notre Dame; Noter Dayme has been burning down for years
I knew about Jay, guess I could have figured that she was also from that same marriage. Doesn’t Jim have a gay son about the same age as this daughter with his current wife?
Edit: just did a google search and Jim has kids from 3 different marriages. Didn’t know that.
What difference does it make? If he's gay, does that make him not human, or something? Answer: it doesn't make one bit of difference what someone not around you does in his/her bedroom.
Where did I say anything that being gay makes him less human or that it makes a difference?
You didn’t. For some reason he jumped to a conclusion
April 29th, 2019 at 10:44 PM ^
If he were straight, would you have said, doesn’t Jim have a straight son the same age as his daughter?

Kudos. You've signaled your virtue today.
It's a valid point. He doesn't put too fine a point on it, but I don't know why one of Harbaugh's kids has to be labeled in that way, if it's even accurate.
Your search has deceived you. He's only been married twice.
He has 3 kids from his first marriage and 4 from his second. James, Jay and Grace are from his first marriage and are young adults now. Addison, Katherine, Jack and John are from his current marriage. He has only been married twice.
3. The twitter famous James Harbaugh Jr. is the the middle child of the 3.
I do!
That's why I'm happy it was so convenient that Jay was not only in a position to join the rest of the fam in A2, but lso has the skills to contribute at such a high level on the coaching staff.
Plus, as a father myself, I really respect that sometimes those involved with high level "athletics" sacrifice more than just time away from family but miles away too.
So Welcome Grace! May you tread easily in A2!
So is Oakland in play or not?
Noice, congrats ..................Coach!
Thanks for the sacrifice, hope this is a fitting reward.
Go Grace Go!
Wonder if she's gonna be a "chopper"?
Pretty cool
We take all your Harbaughs.
Go Blue!
coronado is a cool place, but i highly approve of the move back to the homeland. happy for coach, that would make any dad smile.
April 29th, 2019 at 11:31 PM ^
I'll be back in Coronado in 9 days. Can't wait!
probably conducting espionage at the seal base there. we've got our eyes on you vlady!
I have to catch up with my old friend Jessie Ventura.
April 29th, 2019 at 10:23 PM ^
I still find it amazing that Jim has so many kids. I only have two and that is all my wife and I can handle. It is just impressive how he balances his personal life and work.
April 29th, 2019 at 11:29 PM ^
It's a lot easier when you make enough that your spouse can be a full-time caregiver.
April 29th, 2019 at 11:54 PM ^
Or when you make enough that you and your wife can hand off full time caregiving to multiple nannies.
Yeah, I highly doubt Jim is packing lunches or driving the kids home from school.
you might be surprised what the father of many kids does to make it all work. and besides, he kind of has a split ticket, so to speak, with an older set mostly out of the house and the younger set with him and sarah. i'm guessing it is to JH's great pleasure that he deals with the minutae of child raising at least from time to time. he seems like that kind of guy.
April 29th, 2019 at 10:28 PM ^
Hmmm... I’m glad for Jim and Fam. Not pleased with some of the comments above. Leave young kids alone. If you don’t like Jim, have at it.
April 29th, 2019 at 10:37 PM ^
If you can't get in to college you can always go to Fullerton.
April 29th, 2019 at 11:28 PM ^
Michigan is a fine University and all, but I wouldn't willingly go to the same school my Dad works at.
You'd do it for the free tuition. Since I'm guessing a full ride water polo scholarship is not a thing.
I don't know. Your Dad, six siblings, a step-mom, grandparents? All five minutes away if you need them but you could go six weeks and never bump into any of them if you didn't want to. Sounds like a good choice by the young lady.
April 30th, 2019 at 12:25 AM ^
oh I initially thought he had another child
Congratulations! GO BLUE
I thought the same thing lol
He has mentioned this before now.
Nice to see a kid of privilege earning their way into an elite university based on their talent, merit, and hard work. Refreshing story given the bevy of stories recently around other kids getting into school on scholarship as "players".
FYI, Grace, Blimpy Burger has moved, but Mr. Spots is still in the same place on South State. Enjoy your time in Ann Arbor!
Suicide wings!!!
I thought the letter of recommendation from Aunt Becky was what got her in?
Hey , lets leave the coaches family alone , he's entitled to some privacy , except for football .
