I don’t know how any of this will shake out over the next month or so in regards to the scandal… but… if this opens the door for Harbaugh to leave Michigan and return back to the NFL, the Bears need to open the checkbook and ask him for a number.
Look at the postgame of the Michigan-Penn State match up. These coaches and players are choking up on the verge of tears just talking about him, they love the man. This Michigan team would run through multiple brick walls for him.
The Bears have looked completely lifeless all season when they’re not eking out wins against the other worst team in the league. Eberflus can talk about HITS to the press til he’s blue in the face but nobody in the locker room seems bought into anything about this coaching regime.
Harbaugh is the type of coach to set a direction for a rudderless ship. If it were any other big name college coach I’d be more wary but he’s been to the Super Bowl, he’s no stranger to the league.
Even today we still call him “Coach Ditka”. A lifetime Bear. In 40 years we could still be talking about another Bear as “Coach Harbaugh”.

I find it hilarious that they didn’t even attempt a forward pass in the 2nd half. Just ran it through their faces. THAT’S WHAT THIS TEAM SHOULD DO.
The Bears will never sign a personality like Harbaugh as long as the Mccaskeys run the organization.
this will be the 3rd straight coaching change ive banged the drum for Harbaugh so maybe this is the time
Michigan did nothing wrong.
Sean Payton sat out a year and sucks now. How terrible is Harbaugh gonna be? I think the nfl games already past him.
You don’t think he’s been paying attention to the NFL since he’s been at Michigan? A lot of newer concepts in the NFL have come from college football anyway.
Look at what happened in SF after a couple years. The Harbaugh Hardcore won’t play. And it doesn’t matter if George is still here
I don’t want a cheater
Bears fans are going to flip when eberflus is back next year
Bears won’t have fans at that point
That’s a problem with the fanbase, not the team. Way too toxic
Higher chance he’s back than Harbaugh being coach
I wouldn’t mind if he was our DC. But as the HC, not so much. But if he beats GB, ATL, AZ, MN and finishes with 7 wins I could easily see him coming back.
Yea, I’d stop watching the Bears completely if that happens.
If he’s back next year I’ll do my own little bears boycott won’t watch a bears game I barely watch them this year this whole staff is ass from chris Morgan, getsy, especially Eberflus
Bears fans are going to flip when eberflus is back next year
Can confirm I would literally flip a shit
RemindMe! August 1 2024
You have it backwards. Harbaugh has been desperately trying to come back to the NFL for a while and no organizations want him. NFL teams are not trying to get him to come to their organization.
Harbaugh would be a home run hire. So,… I’m sure they’ll go in a different direction. Unfortunately, Goofy George always misses the mark!
There is zero chance that the McCaskeys would allow this, he couldn’t be further from the type of people that they are comfortable with. Cognitive dissonance at its finest.
I find the infatuation with a guy who hasn’t been in the NFL in 10 years bizarre.
He was really good.
He’s a good coach and wins everywhere so idk what else you want.
Gruden 2.0
He has won everywhere. College and NFL. He built Stanford into a powerhouse for gods sake
Did you think it was bizarre when the Seahawks hired Pete Carroll?
It’s because Harbaugh is a former QB and knows how to coach QBs. Look what he did for Kaepernick. Went from mediocre to almost winning a Super Bowl.
That’s basically what Bears fans have always wanted: A head coach that doesn’t fuck up the Quarterback position.
If we draft another Quarterback I’d like a coaching staff that won’t piss it away like what’s happening with Fields.
Maybe not Jim, but hopefully we get a coach who can do something with our QBs other than ruin them.
Look at Harbaugh at Michigan before you sell him as a QB whisperer. Michigan has struggled to develop QBs, and done so for a while. McCarthy is alright finally, but the list of QBs that were big recruits that busted with Harbaugh is pretty long.
The biggest red flag for Jim Harbaugh is his ability to develop QBs. There are a lot of good reasons to hire Jim Harbaugh, but he is not a QB whisperer, and it would not be something to expect him to succeed at.
He’s been at michigan 8 years. Theres only been a sample size worth mentioning for 3 guys, which is about right considering you might as well throw the first two years of any college coach out the window.
2 of those years are jj mccarthy who’s a day 2 pick in the draft
2 of those years are Shea Patterson who got better at michigan
1 year was McNamara and he has sucked at iowa in the games he’s played
Who exactly did he not develop? Bazooka Joe? Brandon Peter’s? Both had good stretches but regressed pretty hard. Maybe an argument for Milton. Not a great one though. There were better options for michigan at the time.
I’m guessing they are Michigan fans. Which explains why they want Fields to fail, too. If so they should fuck off back to a CFB sub.
Not a Harbaugh fan really, but he’d be great fit actually. Bears need a fire lit in their belly…which is also probably why they wouldn’t hire him.
Harbaugh is definitely not a McCaskey coach. And I don’t see he and Ryan Poles fitting well together. I would imagine Kevin Warren has some pretty good intel on Harbaugh after running the Big Ten.
The 49ers team couldn’t stand him after 3 seasons. NFL is not NCAAF
The man hates Pete Carroll, the nicest dude in the NFL and NCAA when he was there. Enough said.
