A brand new name has just emerged in the Minnesota Vikings’ search for a new head coach and this one. . .well, this one is big.
Pro Football Talk is reporting that the Vikings are interviewing former NFL head coach and current Michigan Wolverines head coach Jim Harbaugh for their head coaching vacancy.
Harbaugh had a relatively successful career as an NFL quarterback after being drafted by the Chicago Bears in the first round of the 1987 NFL Draft. He played for six teams, most notably the Bears and the Indianapolis Colts, and retired from the NFL after the 2001 season.
