If Harbaugh loses to ND and Ohio State next year is that it?

[IrishBlooded]

If he mirrors this year again. And loses to both ND and Ohio State at home. Will that be the last straw? Will the fan base finally figure out he is snake oil? Will they see he is a 9-3 to 10-2 coach who's greatest accomplishment is getting Andrew Luck to Stanford.

 

[OregonDucks]

No because Michigan already paid for next years Spring practice on the Carnival Cruise to the Bahamas.

Of course not, silly. Even if Harbaugh’s fifth season results in having our shit pushed in by our biggest rivals... again... and again... we’ll have the CFB world right where we want ‘em because hipster glasses and trips to Europe.

Jimmy's daddy isn't coaching in Columbus anymore and ND could be transitioning to a new coach next season.

Now is the time for him to finally live up to his hype.

I agree with that, but if he doesn’t...

Let's be really honest here. No one is taking Kelly the NFL rumors are just that. Stirred up by his manager. Honestly I wouldn't be surprised in the least to find out Kelly's manager paid NFL teams to mention him for a possible interview that way he doesn't lose his gravy train paycheck from ND.

I'll defer to you on that, you know more about him than I do.

Don't you think though at some point some of these loser franchises (Jets, Bengals, Cardinals, etc.) take a chance on a guy who has won everywhere he's coached at the college level?

 

[IrishBlooded]

Did Kelly win something at ND I missed?

Seriously though. When he flirted with the NFL in 2012 that was his best chance. He has too many years of middling teams and lost big games.

Should be, but won't be.

Totally overrated, just like Harbaugh, he hasn’t won any conference crowns.

Umm we still haven’t seen a Harbaugh recruit leading the team to start the season so we may need to wait for year 6 before he can truly be judged. He still needs to get all his guys in there.

 

[drbuck10]

I've learned not to take streaks in this rivalry for granted but its gotten to the point where TSUN has to prove to me that they can win the big rivalry games before I can ever look at any year as "the year" for them. Next year could be the roughest year of Harbaugh's tenure. This season was his season to do something but instead: all those returning starters on defense only to end the "Revenge Tour" on a thud and get blown out in the "who-gives-a-shit bowl".

[Stakesarehigh]

I think he gets two years to get it right imo

 

[BigAppleBadger]

They’ll wait and find out of OSU takes a step back in the coaching transition. If they still lose to OSU, then he’s definitely on the hot seat.

The piss and blue Cooper

Pretty much. Cooper had a few teams that were better than anything Harbaugh has had yet though (96/98)

 

[MAIZEandBLUE09]

Nope. Again, look at cooper. Cooper was in the same position Harbaugh was in and stuck around for what - 12 years? It's hard to fire a coach who's winning 10 games a year. Harbaugh still has time to flip the script at Michigan. I'd say another 2-3 seasons if nothing changes before they'd honestly consider firing him.

To be fair

Kelly is undefeated in conference games since arriving at ND
