I hope Kelly goes there. He's just as easy to dislike as Harbaugh.
Looking back on Harbaugh's Michigan tenure, he got off to a rough start. I remeber back when the national pundits were weighing in on who would win a championship first, Frost or Harbaugh?
But it was Jim who turned it around --- and guess where he started?
Yep, the offensive line.
I never liked Harbaugh (he seems like a real goofball) but one thing about him I find encouraging is that Matt Rhule is on record as saying Jim Harbaugh's Michigan program is similar to his blueprint for Nebraska.

We have a different opinion on where he turned it around. I am in the camp that he turned it around in opposition stadiums weeks before they playedLooking back on Harbaugh's Michigan tenure, he got off to a rough start.

We were competitive under Frost. Remember all those one score losses? We didn't need a coach who sets the bar at competitive. We needed a coach who has a track record of building programs and player development. We have that now. We're getting ready to launch into year two, we've acquired some fantastic talent not only in the recruiting class but through the portal as well.
Buy in and drink the koolaid, we're on our way back to the top. *
* Fairly certain, anyway.
Nick and Jimmy's was crazy busy every time we went, but Nick was 90 years old when they closed. Nick retired in early 2022 and they did another year at Nick and Jimmy's without him. The other restaurants he was involved with are still open - most being run by his daughter and one by a longtime manager. *Probably more than you wanted to know, but there you have it!*

I've never liked Harbaugh because, as a "Michigan Man" and former QB, he embodies the arrogance that makes me hate that program (I grew up 35 miles away).
When Michigan escaped Memorial Stadium in that night game a few years ago with a very narrow victory, he made comments along the lines of saying we're not losing to this outfit. Never in doubt. He and Bielema never give Nebraska a shred of credit in their post-game media comments. By contrast, Rhule usually says something like "that's a good team we played today, give them some credit..."
Grudgingly, I will admit he did a good job building the program to the point that they exceeded "Ohio" for three straight years after total domination at the top by the Buckeyes. I do like his offense a lot.
Here's to Goodbye and Good Riddance.

Harbaugh wasn't about to take any actual punishment from the NCAA - his giant ego won't allow it. Not surprised at all he ends up with San Diego - Herbert is a good if not great QB - somebody he can build around.
Reed might retire after this season. I can't see KC staying at the same level even with Mahomes as the QB. Regardless - Mahomes is a tough QB to have to play 2x a year.
I'm no NFL expert and barely a fan. But if I've got a healthy Mahomes or Burrow at QB, I think I've got a decent shot.
