FWIW, Harbaugh will be paid $5 million a year, plus incentives.

More details on the incentives in Harbaugh's contract:

-- Big Ten championship game appearance: $125,000

-- Big Ten championship: $250,000

-- Selected for New Years Six Bowl: $200,000 OR Selected for College Football Playoff: $300,000

-- National Championship: $500,000

-- Big Ten Coach of the Year: $50,000

-- National Coach of the Year: $75,000

-- Academic Progress Rate (APR) of 960 or higher: up to $150,000

-- $2 million signing bonus

Surprisingly there is no "Beat Ohio State" incentive.

The APR incentive (960) is a joke, since Hoke supposedly already has it at 975:

Going to be awfully difficult to get most of those incentives with Ohio State going undefeated every year. This contract would have looked good under the old Leaders and Legends division set-up. At least they'd have a chance to appear in the B1G Championship.

Counting chickens before they're hatched, are we? Harbaugh's a terrific coach. No way we are able to sustain a dominance in The Game like we did under Lloyd Carr, Rich Rodriguez or Brady Hoke. No way.

You mean the Lloyd Carr who won scUM's only national championship in the last 67 years? The Lloyd Carr who was 5-1 against Ohio State before Jim Tressel showed up on the scene? Rodriguez and Hoke were bums, Carr was not.

Ohio State will have the talent advantage over Michigan for the foreseeable future. And the coaching advantage as well, until Harbaugh proves otherwise. Ohio State has proven that it can beat quality Michigan teams (2001-2007) with a quality head coach (Lloyd Carr). I'll keep putting my money on Ohio State for the time being.

Well, that was half a national championship... 5-1 record was against John Cooper who was known more for losing to scUM than he was for anything else. After all, Cooper made Lloyd Carr look like... Lloyd Carr.

I think Harbaugh's a better coach than Carr. I find myself wondering what JT's record would've been had he coached against Harbaugh. I suspect it wouldn't have been so stellar. Obviously this is arguable, but this is my IMO.

You are correct in that tOSU will have the talent advantage for the next couple of years. I'll give the coaching advantage to UFM as well, until Harbaugh shows us otherwise. I'll put my money on tOSU for the next 2 years. But beyond that, I am hesitant to say it will be a total domination of TTUN.

My question is, does he retain Mattison?

Good question right here. Sounds like Drevno, Morton, and Durkin are in. Saw something about them being interested in Vince Marrow ( I'll guess recruiting coordinator) as well. He's going after guys who can recruit. I think Mattison has ties to the state of Texas, so that would get them connected into four major recruiting areas (California, Florida, Ohio, and Texas). I could see Mattison staying on as the d-line coach and letting Durkin have the DC title. The younger guys want that title for their resume. I'm interested in seeing who they hire as their strength guy. That's a big pull in recruiting these days.

Of course, Urban Meyer takes a back seat to no one when it comes to any facet of running a program. I'm sure counterpunches are being readied.

Sorry, I thought I was in the shenanigans thread. It'd be pretty ridiculous to expect that, although there's many on the E!SPN boards (they're so much easier to use) who probably feel that way.
