Report: Jim Harbaugh To Receive 10% Raise After Going 8-5

[Red_Alert]

Bo Pelini >>> Jim Hairbawlz.

Fact

 

[droider]

He totally deserves every dime.

Says every Michigan opponent

 

[TrustMeIamRight]

Or we understand perfectly and are still going to take shots at how much Harbaugh makes with how little he has accomplished. Yes, this wasn't a renegotiation. Yes, it's still funny you had to give coach a raise after a 5 loss season

So that is considered funny in Ohio? Guess we have a different definition of humor? It is nothing more than a standard contract, but ok.

"8-5 is worthy of a raise."

-U of M fans

Is a UCLA fan really commenting about 8-5? The Bruins would throw a parade if they could consistently win 8 games a year.

 

[tducey]

Good for him. Had thought he was going back to the NFL to coach though. Was hoping the Colts would be interesting in him being their next coach.

The old "A fan of so and so" shouldn't be commenting?

Weak sauce. Up your troll game, son.

Broke ass.

 

[TrustMeIamRight]

Stupid U of M even wrote that into the contract.

FYI DJ — UCLA gives Chip Kelly a 10% raise after year 1, a 20% raise after year 2 and another 10% after year 3. He hasn’t even coached a game yet.

I keep telling people, Harbaugh is here for life.

Just speaking facts. UCLA would do cartwheels to win 8 games a year. Be happy you play in the PAC, you may get there someday.

I don't think i'd go that far, the natives are already getting restless. 8-5 in year 3 was a pretty big letdown.

If he fails to beat Ohio State next year and doesn't get to the B1G title game once again, it's only going to heat up even more.

Still won't matter. More people will be vocal but that won't matter.

Good for Michigan, they got their man, and by golly, they're going to stick with him. Colleges are way to quick to fire coaches these days when they don't "deliver" immediately. The facts are, odds of winning a Championship is reserved for so few schools in any given year.

If you can recruit decently, win more than half your games, beat the rivals about half the time, that should be good enough when you consider this is supposedly all about the Academics and the Student-Athletes.

If you are ok with being a mediocre team with occasionally beating your rivals that is absolutely fine. But you don’t pay that head coach top 5 money to do so. Michigan should not be looking to fire him but they brought him in and is paying him and his staff top dollar and given them a blank checkbook to win conference titles and national titles. Michigan is not a 2nd or 3rd tier program in the minds of their fans, so finishing 7-6 to 9-4 every year would not be acceptable. They forced out the best coach they’ve had since Bo for doing that.

Maybe it's time for them to re-adjust their program priorities.

Nebraska probably should, too

There definitely needs to be a readjustment of expectations and what their program actually is. They have been a 3-4 loss team most years for the last 25 years. By listening to some Michigan fans, not just here but even in real life, they believe they are on the same tier as Ohio State and have been in contention for National titles nearly every year for the last 50 years. They are a Tennessee. Great back before there was face masks on helmets but above average since WWII.

Don't ever say that again.

My condolences sir..

Exactly...some of these Old-World Bluebloods are now just mediocre or above-average programs. Their time might come again, but until they start putting together multiple 12-win seasons, they should probably tamp down that enthusiasm.

This is the guy so many meeeechegan fans admire?
