Why no Jim Harbaugh love?

The Dude · 01-29-2022, 09:02 PM

I’ve seen a lot of names thrown around but haven’t heard or read anything about Harbaugh being a potential candidate. Haven’t even seen fans mention it. Apparently he’s ready to get back to the NFL and he’s got a decent resume. I wouldn’t mind seeing him here. We have to be at least as attractive as the Vikings.

For some reason Jim Harbough seem's to be a lock for the Vikings job. initially it looked like they were hot on the heels for Dan Quinn.

I think he'd be a great hire. Never got the hate for him. Loved him as the "Comeback Kid" as the QB of the Colts against the Steelers back in the day. I think he's a great coach.

I used to think he was way too brash, but the challenges at Michigan really humbled him and I think he has a lot better temperament now. If he keeps that same vibe then he might be a good fit.

I'd rather have Mike Ditka back. Thats how much I dislike everything Harbaugh.

I was out in San Fran while he coached there and his tough guy act wore pretty thin. Maybe it’s just my anti niner bias, but I wouldn’t touch him with my ten foot foot pole.

There are some guys that you hate because they are so good, but to me, I hated Harbaugh because he seemed like a whiny little brat all the time.

His brother John seemingly got all the maturity growing up.

Yep.

Loved him as a player, tough MF. As an NFL HC like Singletary before him, he was too fiery/ emotional. In the NFL that can carry you with young players in the short term but fails in the long term when times get tough. Maybe he's changed or matured but as I said before I hope we can keep the coaching staff as intact as possible. An outsider HC hire will probably not allow that.
