Andrew Luck and Jim Harbaugh 309x204 Sources: Jim Harbaugh lands with 49ers

Stanford coach Jim Harbaugh has finally found a home in the NFL and surprisingly, it is not with the Miami Dolphins. Several reports yesterday had Harbaugh taking his talents to South Beach amidst a large sum of money offered to him from Michigan alum Stephen Ross. But last night, the Miami Dolphins announced they were sticking with Tony Sparano for the time being and thus began the NFL feeding frenzy of the last 24 hours.

Not shockingly, it also left the San Francisco 49ers in the drivers seat to lure him away from Stanford. Though many considered Harbaugh to be a “Michigan man”, he has called the Bay area home for quite some time, including long ago from his high school days.

The deal, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter is in the neighborhood of 5-years, $25 million dollars, although the exact details will be made available in a press conference later today.

What'd you think of this?
