Ever since the day Jim Harbaugh was named the head coach of the University of Michigan football team, there have been constant rumblings about him going back to the NFL.
As we know, despite winning 10 or more games in each of his first two seasons, Harbaugh has failed to win the “big games’ and that is what most coaches are judged on. Every time his team loses to the likes of Michigan State, Penn State, Wisconsin, or Ohio State, an article is written about Harbaugh leaving the Wolverines for the NFL.

The most recent rumors are that both the Chicago Bears and the Indianapolis Colts would be interested in making Harbaugh their next head coach.
According to NFL columnist Mike Freeman, a source close to Harbaugh has indicated that a return to professional football, “won’t happen.”
Source close to Jim Harbaugh: "Don't even start that NFL talk. Won't happen."
Meaning Harbaugh won't be returning to NFL anytime soon.

Though many predicted a down year for Michigan because of the number of starters they lost from the 2016 season, the critics have been extremely loud about Harbaugh underachieving as the Wolverines head coach.
If Harbaugh can lead Michigan to an upset win over Ohio State this coming Saturday, some of those critics, along with the NFL rumors, will pipe down for a while. Of course, they will start right back up as soon as the Wolverines lose another game.
