"Jim Harbaugh's NFL Prospects Heat Up Post-Rose Bowl Victory Amid Michigan Tenure Success"

Speculation is mounting that University of Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh may return to the NFL, with the Los Angeles Chargers emerging as a potential destination. Despite Harbaugh's openness to an NFL comeback and the Chargers' recent firing of their head coach and general manager, the move is not certain due to Chargers owner Dean Spanos's history of not spending heavily on coaches. Harbaugh has a lucrative offer from Michigan on the table, which includes a clause that would prevent him from taking NFL jobs if he accepts it.
