Head coach Jim Harbaugh of the Michigan Wolverines, who are two victories away from a national championship, is currently getting ready for his team’s College Football Playoff Semifinal battle against the Alabama Crimson Tide. Despite the fact that the Wolverines are about to make history, there’s still a potential that Harbaugh will play one more season in Ann Arbor.
At Michigan, Harbaugh, who turns 60 on December 23, has outperformed expectations. After taking over as Michigan’s coach in 2015, he has won three straight Big Ten titles and elevated the team to the status of a consistent playoff contender. Above all, the Wolverines have triumphed over Ohio State for three straight seasons.
However, many around football believe Harbaugh has unfinished business in the NFL. He’s already entertained offers to return as a head coach in each of the last two offseasons, but turned around and signed a contract extension with Michigan each time. With the Wolverines in the CFP, however, there could now be a realistic path for Harbaugh to leave on his terms.
Bruce Feldman of The Athletic stated during an appearance on The Rich Eisen Show that he thinks Harbaugh will undoubtedly leave Michigan to take a head coaching position in the NFL if the Wolverines win a national championship.
