Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh has agreed to a new five-year contract that runs through the 2026 season, the school announced on Wednesday. The new deal gives Harbaugh a one-year extension with new terms from the contract he signed last January.
The renewed commitment comes exactly two weeks after Harbaugh's highly publicized Feb. 2 interview with the Minnesota Vikings on national signing day. Following the news that he did not receive an offer, Harbaugh returned to Ann Arbor where he immediately met with the team, according to a school spokesman, and began making hires for the openings on his staff.
