Just rumors I've heard from different sources...
CONFIRMED: Michigan has offered Jim Harbaugh a deal worth $5.2 million a year. That would make him the 2nd highest paid coach in the nation. David Brandon has been in constant contact with him, but the Michigan AD does admit it's gonna take a lot for him not to go pro.
Conflicting 9er rumors: Different reports coming from the bay area. Some reports state that it is a done deal, but it is not the consensus. One report indicates that the 9ers don't have/don't want to spend the money Harbaugh is asking for. Others say he could be given substantial control in the front office. Several other reports state that members in the Harbaugh camp do not want him going to the 9ers because they feel it would be career suicide with how the organization has been run. And as I said yesterday, there are rumors that Harbaugh is not a huge fan of the Yost family. THe one big positive to SanFran for Harbaugh is he wouldn't have to uproot his family.
Denver rumors: Elway wants an interview, and it sounds like if Jimmy doesn't go to SanFran he will grant Elway that interview. However, the feelings are that he won't be going there. The Denver owner is not thrilled with the idea on paying Harbaugh his requested salary (especially with him being on the books with Shanahan and McDaniels for a lot of money). But those close to Harbaugh seem to indicate that if he is going to go to a cold environment, he'd go to Michigan.
Oakland: They are interested, he is not. Harbaugh is strong willed and has an ego, he would not mesh well with Al Davis.
Miami rumors: Nothing substantial yet really. All I can tell you is that he and Ross have been talking regularly to gage his interest. I've heard through the grapevines that Miami would be his preferred choice if he goes pro. HOWEVER, I've also heard that his wife is not thrilled with the idea of South Beach. Not really a lot going on other than that.
A lot of rumors, but you guys have to remember things change very quickly every minute. NOTHING is set in stone
