The University of Michigan won’t be looking for a new football coach, as Jim Harbaugh won’t be going to the Minnesota Vikings. Harbaugh met with the team earlier this week.
The potential move comes on the heels of the Wolverines posting a 12-2 record with a College Football Playoff appearance, at which they fell to the eventual champion Georgia Bulldogs. It was Harbaugh’s seventh season at the school, and if he had left the campus he would have departed with a 61-24 record with just one bowl win.
He beat Ohio State for the first time this past season.
Harbaugh was also rumored to be filling the Miami Dolphins coaching vacancy. He has now promised Michigan that’s committed to staying at the school.
