ROSEMONT, Ill. — Michigan athletic director Warde Manuel said last year he wanted Jim Harbaugh to stay at U-M until he retired.
On Monday, Manuel reiterated that same desire.
"I stand by my decision and my statement that I want him to retire here," Manuel said.
When asked if he had discussed a contract extension with Harbuagh, Manuel declined to comment.
"I’m not going to announce any conversations I’ve had with Jim about his contract or whatever," Manuel said.
