Jim Harbaugh made final departure announcement after a successful charger’s interview today……

The offseason is in full swing for college football, which means, as is tradition, speculation for Jim Harbaugh’s future is grabbing all the headlines.

Confirmed by the organization itself, the Michigan Wolverines’ head coach interviewed on Monday for the head coach job for the Los Angeles Chargers.

This is the first meeting between Harbaugh and an NFL team this offseason, and it very well could be the only team he meets with. The Las Vegas Raiders are likely to hire interim head coach Antonio Pierce, while the Washington Commanders appear to be going all in on Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson. New England has already replaced Bill Belichick with Jerod Mayo, while the Carolina Panthers are a mess of an organization and no coach like Harbaugh should want to touch that job.

Meanwhile, Harbaugh has not been linked to the Seattle Seahawks, Atlanta Falcons or Tennessee Titans.

Harbaugh is coming off a 15-0 season, guiding his alma mater to a third consecutive Big Ten title, a Rose Bowl victory, and a National Championship win. Harbaugh’s current contract is good through the 2026 season, but that current contract doesn’t seem to be good enough anymore to keep Harbaugh firmly in Ann Arbor.

Over the weekend at the team’s championship celebration at Crisler Center, Athletic Director Warde Manuel told the crowd he was working on keeping Harbaugh around.
