Fair enough. We’ll see if he holds it together.He's had 2 classes at LSU that signed. The 25 class isn't signed
Why? He's just stating the obvious. Even if LSU overpaid. BK is a good not great coach, but he has a great agent. 😜Your posting style on a variety of subjects proves a lot of ignorance as well.
How many coaches NEVER get a titleStill took him 14 years to get to the title.
Comparing Freeman to Harbaugh is pure mental masturbation !
But we all wish Freeman great success in the years ahead
Slobbering all over Harbaughs jock strap, while repeatedly using the phrase “mental masturbation. Somebody better check this kids hard drive.Michigan beat every team on their schedule and then they beat every team the committee scheduled for them in the playoffs.
Would all of you sore losers and losers stop making excuses and stop your mental masturbation by creating ridiculous hypocritical/hypothetical scenarios
CONGRATULATE MICHIGAN ON A GREAT SEASON AND FOR BEING UNDEFEATED AND WINNING THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP !
Ouch!Slobbering all over Harbaughs jock strap, while repeatedly using the phrase “mental masturbation. Somebody better check this kids hard drive.
Whether it is Saturdays or Sundays, Jim Harbaugh is a really good football coach.Slobbering all over Harbaughs jock strap, while repeatedly using the phrase “mental masturbation. Somebody better check this kids hard drive.
I learned from the best PattyHow many coaches NEVER get a title
How petty can you get ?
Yet Texas beat Alabama at Alabama.The best team in CFB won, NO QUESTION.
They had ZERO weakesses from COACHING to SPECIAL TEAMS. Very reminicent of ND's 88 NC team, whereas Washington -- as someone on one of these boards pointed out -- was more like ND's 2012 team which, though good, scrapped its way into the BCS title game, only to be EXPOSED.
As for the playoffs themselves, I saw the four best teams as UM, Georgia, Alabama and OSU. The two REAL SEMI-FINAL GAMES were between UM and OSU in the regular season and Alabama and Georgia in the SEC championship game.
The actual NATIONAL TITLE GAME was between UM and BAMA as the winner of that game was in all likelihood going to win it ALL which UM, the winner of that game, DID. And I believe Alabama would have prevalied against Washington as well.
As for Washington, not only OSU and Bama played UM tougher, but so, too, did Maryland and PSU. I think these former PAC-10 teams that have joined the BIG 10 will now be living in INTERESTING TIMES.
Lol. So why did it take until year 7 and Conor Stallions before he beat OSU?I think Harbaugh has been one of the best and most underrated coaches in football over the last 20 years, taking on some really tough jobs, and getting great results. He's also just a really interesting personality IMO (awkward, eccentric, spacey). I wouldn't mind watching this guy finally get a championship on his resume.
And Mich gets its first singular NC since 1948 (1998 was shared don’t forget)Night. Michigan is national champions.
But at least we are third best in a 200 mile radius.
They gave Harbie more leash…. through suspensions, personal embarrassments, controversial hires, asst coaches who broke the law, and breaking NCAA rules through Covid and through the sign stealing sagaIt definitely takes a bit of a perfect storm and a lot of luck no matter how good your team is in order to win a national title. BUT Michigan won this national title because 10 years ago they gave Harbaugh a record breaking contract (at the time) and pulled him away from the the NFL.
Who is NDs Harbaugh out there, and how much is ND willing to outspend the market to retain him?
65 guys hired by Stallions to film opposing teams signs is not egregious?I'm not convinced MI did anything egregiously wrong. They just happened to get caught. Much like USC for Reggie Bush getting some payouts...whereas the SEC routinely did this, like that $250k payout that got dismissed.
Cheating also doesn't occur when you eliminate standards. Like easy degrees anybody can pass, requiring no cheating. The NCAA is a dirty as they come, so no, I won't hang MI nor USC for what they did...as others seem to do far worse and get away with it.
I mean, the CFP committee just shoehorned Alabama into this over FSU. So coaches at practices or some play stealing by some coaches is much worse?
Mich was a complete teamHuge break and all part of the perfect storm for UM, but also have to give the Wolverines credit for running roughshod over their competition all season as only only two games were ever in really in doubt after the first five minutes of the second quarter, i.e., vs. OSU and Alabama. UM had dominant line play on both sides of the ball all season and controlled its games from start to finish, something you can only do if your have dominant line play.
I don’t think in any other iteration of the CFP that two of the four most statistically dominant teams and ones oddsmakers most favored during games, i.e., Georgia and Oregon, didn’t make it to the CFP. Obviously there’s valid reasons why neither team did, but UM got lucky in how events transpired that kept those teams out. Then it also caught Alabama in a season with a QB issue, a team that played way over its head against UGa and then had opportunities vs. UM even though UM made uncharacteristic mistakes that gave Alabama a chance.
Not one of his players cheated, so get over it !
They beat Alabama and Washington on the field where it counts
Congratulate them for a great season capped by a National Championship
Or coach well enoughHe doesn't recruit well enough
Harbaugh had a mess to clean up. If we end up a disaster like they had, it’ll take a good coach 7 years to fix us too.Meyer got to UF and won a National Championship Year 2, Meyer went to Ohio State and won a National Championship Year 3. Saban went to Alabama and won a National Championship year 3. They are great coaches.
Harbaugh was about to get run out of town after his 6th season at Michigan. The 2020 COVID season was a disaster, culminating with him chickening out of playing Ohio Stare.
Suddenly he has become unbeatable in the regular season the past 3 seasons and 40-3 overall. And in the process he has been suspended and is looking at multiple investigations. There may be a National Championship, but it comes with an asterisk and a major stink.

Exactly. Harbaugh got a Natty. BK never will and he will be run out of LA in a couple of years.Well said. It's always nuanced, and there can be major differences. The rise of Saban and Meyer drove and were part of the ascendency of the SEC, pushing the evolution of college football: more advanced program management, coaching, easy degree paths, yes, payouts, and sheer culture.
No way was Harbaugh going into a similar environment into a Michigan that had dumpster fire debacles under Rodriguez and Hoke. It was basically a total rebuild. A more appropriate comparison is to Brian Kelly arriving at ND.
It took Harbaugh 9 years. So? He got it done. He evidently got the players he wanted, notably in defense. The MI defense is legit elite...something I haven't seen from any non-SEC team outside of Ohio State the past 15 years or so.
Again: Harbaugh got it done. Brian Kelly didn't. My take is that Harbaugh got what he wanted but Brian Kelly didn't. We will get the full appraisal of Brian at LSU, as he has no excuse now.
Anyways, kudos to Harbaugh and MI. I continue to wish the same for ND and Freeman, hoping it's not 9 years, although I'd take that...but Freeman in year 1 at ND is NOT Harbaugh in year 1 at MI as a coach...although I'll give Freeman starts with a better roster, though far from compete.
If he doesn't leave on his own before thatExactly. Harbaugh got a Natty. BK never will and he will be run out of LA in a couple of years.
His seat is getting hot so he may try to leave. Not sure who would want him. Reminds me of Urban, everytime the pressure was on, he had chest pains and had to "retire"If he doesn't leave on his own before that
He doesn't reming me of Urban in any wayHis seat is getting hot so he may try to leave. Not sure who would want him. Reminds me of Urban, everytime the pressure was on, he had chest pains and had to "retire"
BK was 59-31 from 2010-2016, 4-8 in 2016 before he went on his run. The only difference, Harbaugh actually won games in the biggest moments, with BK we are still waiting even at LSU.Meyer got to UF and won a National Championship Year 2, Meyer went to Ohio State and won a National Championship Year 3. Saban went to Alabama and won a National Championship year 3. They are great coaches.

Dabo took 5-6 years before he got Clemson to win a NC.

One of the dirtiest for sureHe doesn't reming me of Urban in any way
Urban is one of the best cfb coaches I've seen
Unlike you and other morons, I’m objective.I compared the ND football program after year 2 of Freeman, to the Michigan program after year 9 of Harbaugh Perhaps if you removed your nose from Harbaugh’s rear end you’d be able to catch my drift.
But my guess is you like your nose right where it is, don’t you 🤡?
I recognize that he’s a great coach with enviable record in the NFL and NCAA, you’re just too stupid to understand and acknowledge the obvious !Slobbering all over Harbaughs jock strap, while repeatedly using the phrase “mental masturbation. Somebody better check this kids hard drive.

Harbsugh’s record in the NFL and the NCAA is spectacular
Only a fool would denegrate his coaching abilities and record.

You’re a tool, Harbaugh‘s record speaks for itselfEverything I said about Harbaugh was factual. I left out the fact SF wanted to trade him to the Cleveland Browns because he’s such a prick. Go to Ann Arbor with your anointing oil. And help the NCAA with the cheating investigation.
You have less skills than I imagined. Poor baby I think I just hurt your feelings. Don’t look now but I clubbed a baby seal. Adios Mrs Harbaugh.
