Jim Harbaugh Expects to Stay at Michigan After Reported Panthers Talk

Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh appeared to shoot down the idea that he is leaving the program for a return to the NFL this offseason.

Will Kunkel of Charlotte Sports Live reported Tuesday that Harbaugh spoke to Panthers owner David Tepper about the team’s coaching vacancy and, naturally, rumors swirled. But the Wolverines coach addressed his future with the program and it sounds like he’s leaning one way.

“Although no one knows the future, I think I will be coaching Michigan next year,” Harbaugh told Queen City News.
