Do WHATEVER it takes to get Harbaugh out of Michigan

[SilentHill]

and I mean WHATEVER it takes.

 

I don't care what you have to pay him, or what his demands are, just do it.

 

Also throw in one of Irsay's homes in Indy, just give him whatever he wants.

[Malakai432]

He has a pretty good gig @ Michigan.  I'm not sure he'd leave. 

[Andrew Luck fan club]

Never happening. Doesn't matter the team sucks.

I mean anything, give him full control of the organization. give him double what he's getting at Michigan. Give him a private jet, anything.

I'm on board

This job gets less attractive by the week.  Whoever steps in will basically be starting over.

The benefit here is that he knows Luck, and the type of player that he is. Plus at least I know I can trust him to bring in the right supporting staff.

With Andrew Luck.  That alone could get a lot of people excited.

 

However, I'm not on the Harbaugh train.  He's not very mature and his act can divide a locker room.  I'll pass on him

I'd much rather have him than take a chance on getting another Pagano.

I hate Harbaugh but I sure as hell admire him as a coach.

 

He would bring toughness back to Indy in a heartbeat.

Fire Pagano and look elsewhere.  I would personally avoid Harbaugh

Only for a few years.  Then he probably has another rift with the GM because he wants more power and some of the vets get tired of his childish behaviour and you have a split locker room and you end up where the 49ers are right now

I can see some fans prepping their black van with tinted windows loaded with a bag of duct tape and zip ties.

Give him the GM/Coach job, problem solved.

 

Nothing to lose at this point.

[snkdy]

The only way I could ever see that happening is if Harbaugh manages to win the title this year and decides to come back, and even that is a stretch. I don't see him leaving Michigan for at least a few years.

They always come back   He still needs to get that Super Bowl Win

What has he done to warrant being given the GM position?  What personnel moves has he made that warrant him being given control over the personnel decisions?

I have a neighbor who's a Michigan fan(He's from Michigan), and he speaks reverently of how much the school thinks about Captain Comeback. Nigh impossible to get him away from there. I would love it if it could actually happen though!!

Maybe.  The 49ers had some head cases and a lot of early retirees, etc.

 

Plus they had Kaepernick.  Not Luck. 

 

I cannot think of any other slam dunk hires that would be remotely interested in this dumpster fire.  That's what saddens me.

[Colts4Life18]

So sick of our Mr Nice Guy Coaches bring somebody in that yells and screams !!! How in the world did our GM n Coach get extensions after last year !! 

[jjcolts]

I am in the bay area and the fans here are ready to Boycott their team after Harbaugh was let go.....     

They LOVE him here

[esmort]

Harbaugh is a pipe dream ... people need to let this go.  He is much more suited to coach college than pro ... college players really have no choice but to put up with his domineering/control freak personality and top players will deal with it 3 - 4 years for the chance to go pro  ... but, it wears thin with multi-millionaire NFL players after a while who often carry as much influence as a coach and know they can get paid elsewhere.

 

 

[John Waylon]

Keep chopping wood.

Am I doing this right?

[oldunclemark]

You would  hate Harbaugh by midseason...He's a freak show

[Smoke317]

We probably can't get Harbaugh. Give me McDaniels and hire a young stud defensive coordinator. All of the years under Belichick, he's had to learn something.... Plus I think he would get the most out of Luck. Our offense is set.  Focus the next few drafts on defense and I think we'd be contending in no time. I think he's just waiting for the right opportunity and Luck is the right opportunity.

Harbaugh loves the control that the college environment gives him. Besides, he's basically king in Michigan right now. I don't see him coming back for a while, but I would be happy to be wrong.

[SilentHill]

He's 44-19 with a Superbowl appearance and multiple title game appearances in 4 years as a NFL head coach, and he did it by turning around a broken team, utilizing players like Alex Smith to his strengths.

 

Give the man what he wants. What would go wrong? We gave Grigson the GM job with no GM experience and Pagano the HC job with no experience, and Monachino the DC job with no experience, so why not Harbaugh?

 

I ask again, what do you have to lose?

That is why give him ANYTHING lol. 

 

It is definitely a pipe dream for now.

[coltsfanatic24]

I prefer McDaniels. He's young, innovative, and isn't a conservative play caller. The one guy that might could get us past Belichick.

I'm in the Bay Area, too, and a Stanford fan so I'm very familiar with Harbaugh. I would love to have him but if we truly wanted him, we should have jumped at the chance when he was available.

[Ja'Crispy]

His love for Luck can't beat his love for Michigan and the perennial powerhouse he is building up there.  He is the king of Ann Arbor.

 

But man do I want him here so bad.

No to Mc Daniels... Josh Mcdaniels?  the guy who drafted Tebow?

[Coltsfan0112]

IMO, Irsay needs to try and get Gruden. I know he has a sweet gig but you know he loves some Luck

[AZColt11]

Not happening.  Why would he want to leave?

I hope we don't turn into a joke like the 49ers.... their fall from grace was quick and painful.

 

Shows how a good coach can impact a QB.

I think Jon Gruden and Luck could be a deadly combo.  Not saying that's who I want for head coach, but the two could be great together.

What you said are his coaching accomplishments.  He didn't build the roster.  He called the games and brought the best out of the players using his schemes.  Great coach, but we don't know how he would be at handling the draft, free agency, contracts, trades, etc. What could go wrong is you give a guy complete control, like Holmgren had in Cleveland, and he runs your franchise even further into the ground.

I want to get the right fit. I've had enough of people trying to hype big name guys. You know another person who has a really good regular season record, won playoff games, and turned around a 2-14 roster while not ever having a great roster in his entire tenure... Chuck Pagano. I want a true defensive minded coach that will bring in an offensive coordinator that can hold his own and a GM who will actually address the issues of the team.

Read a few of the recent articles about him.  He's changed a lot and is very different from the guy who was hired by the Broncos in 2009.  I think he's matured a lot and could be ready for another shot as a head coach.  Not saying that's who we should go for, but he's definitely not the same guy who drafted Tebow

You know, Gruden is a very intriguing candidate.  I would take Gruden solely to see Spider 2 Y Banana a few times per game.
