SimPLLLLLLLe Jim "6-13" Harbaugh (B1G Suspenders McKhakiPants, Cheater Cheater Booger Eater)

They've probably reached the 49ers stage of not giving a crap if he's winning or not. They just want his crazy ass out the door, and the calculation is that this will give him his excuse to break his promise (again) and chase the NFL. This is a man who took an NFL team to a Super Bowl and an NFC Championship game in back to back seasons, and the front office still couldn't wait to watch him pack his shit the next year.
Correction: THREE straight NFC Championship appearances. For a once proud, success-starved franchise that had been dead in the water for over a decade. One 8-8 season and they couldn't boot him out of town fast enough. He was such a galactic-scale asshole that the players essentially quit on him in 2014. As a fan, I watched every game; that team did not give a solitary shit about winning those games. They were checked out.

As others have pointed out, if thsi starts to be a threat to the AD or higher, they will throw a coach to the wolves in a heartbeat.

Feels like that may be working it's way through Ward's tremendously thick head.
For a guy who has zero interest in sticking around, he just hasn't been invited to leave yet.

I just want this to hurry up and end so we can witness the comedy of the DFBIA talking about how the new coach is going to ensure back to back to back to back NCs.

The "Harbaugh was only holding us back from winning national titles!" chatter when this eventually happens is all too predictable.

Lends credence to my theory that the former SF front office guy who was the GM in Minnesota when he interviewed dragged him up there and made him sit around all day just to humiliate and fuck with him for what he did in SF. Why on earth was that guy going to seriously consider hiring Simple Jim.

DFBIA really believes that Manuel and now Ono are going to be the ones fired because of this. Lol! Even though it's 100% obvious they are already ready to throw Harbaugh directly under the bus if shit really hits the fan.
Ono is a piece of shit, but he is also a crafty, manipulative political creature. If his survival comes down to discarding Simple Jim, he'll pike his head on the gates of The Big Hole. Simple Jim won't know what hit him.

There were articles written by a prominent Niners beat journalist back around that time outlining the level of disfunction Simple Jim had fostered in the locker room and with the front office. It was astounding.

Also the University clearly has no spine and was bowing down to the NCAA but they are suddenly going to grow the spine to fucking SUE the NCAA if they try to pass down any further punishment? That makes sense. Only to DFBIA.

tsun found an effective 'tard wrangler for what, two years?

A job like that, at a school like that should be lifetime, highly compensated employment for anyone. The one good one they found managed to put up with that idiot for ~2 years.

I hope they got their rocks off on this little 2-3 year post covid manipulation era of success because the book is about to shut on this chapter. Hard.
