Jim Harbaugh vows he won't put himself in a position to be arrested on suspicion of drunken driving again. </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
Harbaugh, the former Chargers quarterback who now serves as head football coach at USD, a man who in two years has taken the program to places it's never approached, was arrested and booked early Sunday morning on suspicion of drunken driving after running a stop sign in Encinitas.
It comes at a time when Harbaugh has the 8-1 Toreros ranked No. 1 in The Sports Network Mid-Major (NCAA I-AA) Top 10, and he has become a commodity, a whispered candidate for possible coaching jobs at the major-college level, including San Diego State's, should it open up.
How this will affect Harbaugh's current and future employment is impossible to forecast. Ky Snyder, USD's athletic director, says it's a university matter and not appropriate to discuss at the present time. USD, a private institution, lists DUI sanctions against students, but not employees.
Harbaugh, on the other hand, couldn't be more stand-up about his mistake. Sit down with him for an hour and listen to him talk about the DUI, his life in general, his players, his coaches, his program and his future, and you find it hard to believe he could do something so ridiculous.
But you're also talking with a human being. Remember what was said about casting the first stone, but Harbaugh deals every day with young men who have put themselves in his hands, and what he did cannot be excused.
"The police were doing their jobs," says Harbaugh, still doing his own job, preparing his team to host Chapman tomorrow night. "I feel I've had a lifetime of good social decision-making. This was a bad one. I'll vow right here and now it will never happen again. People who know me know this is not an indication of my character."

</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><!---------- END BIGBOXAD ---------->Still, he must realize, as do you and I, that we can know a person without really knowing the person, even one close to us. That this serious charge goes against the grain of Harbaugh's public history is beyond dispute, but the fact remains he was arrested, booked and spent 7½ hours in the Vista Detention Facility, hours after returning from Valparaiso, Ind., where his team had just won a football game 63-21. You don't celebrate in your automobile. Harbaugh intends to become an example. As it is, he has been active in community service work, including several children's charities. He has two sons of his own.
"I'm going to work hard to turn this into a positive," he says. "It's not the script you'd want, but I'm going to make my decision-making better."
On the field, Harbaugh hasn't had such troubles. This is his first job as a head coach, and he and his experienced coaching staff have pumped excitement into the Toreros' tank. Maybe it's not the "Notre Dame of the West" that early Toreros coach Bob McCutcheon promised it would become in 1957, but this is a nonscholarship program that has established many firsts under Harbaugh, including its initial outright Pioneer Football League North title.
It doesn't hurt that, in sophomore Josh Johnson, who last week threw seven touchdown passes – in the first half – against Valpo, Harbaugh has a quarterback who could start for many major programs.
"Josh is extraordinary; we have some good players here," Harbaugh says. "Our game plan is exactly that of pro teams and the kids are smart and they get it. Our coaches (including former Chargers defensive coordinator Dave Adolph) are great. They can coach anywhere. Sometimes we recruit against Ivy League and scholarship schools, so we have to work harder identifying and selling them on the atmosphere and education. Not every high school kid is being offered a scholarship."
Most aren't. As for Harbaugh, 41, he can't know what the future holds or if his mistake will cost him when athletic directors check their lists for new head coaches. If he is selected, he has hired local agent Jack Bechta to handle calls.
"I haven't had any offers," says Harbaugh, the son of a coach, Jack, who ran Western Kentucky's program for 14 years. "I'm just trying to do a good job here. That's my whole focus and winning makes it fun. The team just keeps getting better and better. They've grown here. I'm convinced four or five guys on this team are going to be pros."
All he can do now is apologize, coach and hope for the best.
"I've addressed this with the players," he says. "They're my No. 1 concern. I've tried to set a good example. I've got to be accountable. There are a lot of people I have to look in the eye. They know how I feel about alcohol and the consequences and bad decisions, and that applies to me now.
"This is going to make me stronger, not weaker. It's going to make me a better person and coach. I've been raised that way. Stand up and be accountable. There's only one guy who walked this earth who wasn't human." If we go by words, and that's all we have for now, Jim Harbaugh has a good start on the rest of his life.

</td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table>There are times when common sense separates itself from the cream of intelligence. This apparently happened to Jim Harbaugh, a bright man who had a terrible lapse in judgment at a euphoric and important time in his professional life. What he did was stupid, against the law, dangerous to himself and others, and far beyond what he teaches and preaches to the young adults in his charge.
Harbaugh, the former Chargers quarterback who now serves as head football coach at USD, a man who in two years has taken the program to places it's never approached, was arrested and booked early Sunday morning on suspicion of drunken driving after running a stop sign in Encinitas.
It comes at a time when Harbaugh has the 8-1 Toreros ranked No. 1 in The Sports Network Mid-Major (NCAA I-AA) Top 10, and he has become a commodity, a whispered candidate for possible coaching jobs at the major-college level, including San Diego State's, should it open up.

Sorry, that's an ex-Michigan man.
