This actually just sounds like a quote from his agent trying to get more money out of Big M. "...with the hope of a contract offer." Yikes.

Harbaugh has that rep, but he must not have alienated KAM for him to reach out.
Vikings will interview Jim Harbaugh in person on Wednesday
Michigan Jim Harbaugh continues to inch toward a potential return to the NFL.

I think it’s a done deal and happening because of that. Doubt he leaves minny without an offer.
My gut feeling is this too. I don’t think Jim interviews without knowing he likely has the job. Especially on NSD
So can anyone compare Harbaugh to Zim? Seems Jim wore people out almost everywhere he's been. Zim didn't quite do that but he seemed pretty crabby and stuck on his one way. I'm hoping there aren't too many similarities otherwise, why go there. Winning would be nice but wasn't one of the problems that people didn't like Zim's methods? I'm asking more than anything because this isn't something I pay close attention to. If we win a bowl I suppose everyone could get pissed and leave after!

That's why Harbaugh isn't my first choice. He seems like a similar style coach to Zim. And while that's not necessarily bad, that's not always a recipe for success. I was hoping they'd go with a more of a player's coach.
That really blows. I agree though. The biggest lame duck candidate just so happens to be the frontrunner. Brad Childress all over again
I read an article last week that I decided not to link because of political reasons that quoted the Wilfs as saying they want the franchise to be “the face of diversity” in the nfl. The reporter went on to state the GM hire was made because he agreed to hire a woman as his #2. If you’ve been following the HC search it kind of lends credence to the article.
Sounds like Michigan isn't signing anybody on Wednesday so not as big of a deal but still noteworthy.
Harbaugh is eccentric and can rub some people the wrong way. A lot of the reports about Niners players not liking him weren't true.
Sounds like Zimmer was a grumpy old man who held grudges and if he didn't like you that was that...and sounds like there weren't a lot of people he liked.
