How Jim Harbaugh's Departure from Michigan Could Impact the Wolverines, Ohio State and the Rest of College Football

A move seemingly months in the making finally came to fruition on Wednesday.

After nine seasons at Michigan, Jim Harbaugh opted to return to the NFL, reaching an agreement with the Los Angeles Chargers to be their next head coach.

Most of the fans in Ann Arbor wished Harbaugh well and thanked him for their first championship since 1997. Likewise, Ohio State supporters in Columbus ushered Harbaugh out with reminders of Michigan’s sign-stealing scandal that spanned three seasons and the fact a Wolverines head coach hasn’t finished his tenure with a winning record against the Buckeyes since 1994.
