Jim Harbaugh won't chase an NFL job again

Things just weren't meant to be for Jim Harbaugh this time around in his chase for an NFL job. Earlier in the week, it was revealed that Harbaugh will be returning to Michigan after all to stick with his post as head coach.

He had been linked with the openings for the Miami Dolphins and Minnesota Vikings. Now, Harbaugh has made it clear he's with Michigan for the long haul.

Still-#Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh tells @MitchAlbom that "this is the last time” he’ll chase an NFL job while admitting the #Vikings weren’t as enthusiastic about him as he was about them. Minnesota ultimately chose Kevin O’Connell.

Clearly, Harbaugh didn't like how things played out here. Minnesota seemed like a likely destination for him, but the team went with Kevin O'Connell instead. This has proven to be great news for UM fans out there.
