After two weeks of speculation, it has now been confirmed: Jim Harbaugh isn’t going anywhere.
In a rather unprecedented move, University of Michigan President Santa Ono made the announcement himself on Monday afternoon via his official Twitter account.
I just got off the phone with Coach Harbaugh and Jim shared with me the great news that he is going to remain as the Head Coach of the Michigan Wolverines. That is fantastic news that I have communicated to our Athletic Director Warde Manuel. #GoBlue! pic.twitter.com/3LJzsv4zN9
