*At this point, this is just a rumor that has been gaining some serious traction. Stay tuned for any further updates.
Depending on how much faith you put in Chris Balas of The Wolverine, a contract extension between Jim Harbaugh and the University of Michigan is a “done deal.”

When it was announced that Don Brown would not be back as defensive coordinator of the Wolverines, the writing seemed to be on the wall that he was the fall guy and that Harbaugh would be back as Michigan’s head coach in 2021 and beyond.
Prior to this rumor surfacing, there had been reports that Michigan had already offered Harbaugh an extension but that he would have to take a pay cut in order to get the deal done.
Time will tell if this rumor becomes a fact but all signs sure point to Harbaugh sticking around.
Nation, is it the right move to keep Harbaugh for the 2021 season and beyond?
