Here are all of the losses of the Harbaugh Era. "Average Loss" is the combined Margin of Loss divided by total losses:

2019Alabama16 - 35-19-13.4
Through his first three seasons, Harbaugh's average margin of loss was 10.0 points per game; take out the two blowout losses to Ohio State and Penn State, and it drops to 5.8 points per game.

In his last two seasons, Harbaugh's average margin of loss was 18.9 points, with five of the seven losses being by 19+ points.

Notice how the Average Loss has steadily ballooned from its valley of 7.0 points per game after the 2017 Michigan State loss to the current peak of 13.4 points per game. So if you thought Harbaugh was trending in the wrong direction, you were correct.

But I think he's trending in the right direction.

Do we have an odds on favorite on who'll get busted with a tranny on their Brazil trip. My money's definitely on Dudeck in the coaching division, but I don't see a clear Sugar Shane or Trailer Park Fabio type sure shot in the player division.

I'll go with one, or both, of those mo's that took off JK's shoe.

Truth is often stranger than fiction. Can anyone on this forum have imagined or written a script that would have been half as good as what has unraveled the past five years with Jimmah? I mean, he is the gift that just keeps on giving. Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought he was going to be the joke he is or continues to be. He just keeps on keeping on. It is awesome.

I thought the wheels would fall off -- especially recruiting and retention -- if he couldn't get over the hump in the first 3 years. That's been his timeline everywhere he's gone... and we all saw the media hype he had coming in, got him a couple highly rated classes (media propaganda is effective).

He came close in 2016... Beck and Warinner tried really hard to hand it to him. And then it was all over... everything from then was and is going to be a continued slide into Rutgers territory.
They think he's the "safe" hire because he beats the teams he's favored against... but his recruiting and personality ensure that list shrinks every year.

I did expect him to steal a game off of us, effectively drawing the slide out more than he has. So I'm happy to be wrong on that front.
I also expected the NFL would come to his rescue... but they haven't. And I doubt they will, short of maybe Cleveland.
Who wants to hire a guy who can't even coach College kids well? Whose alienated himself with previous ownership? Who is clearly stuck in the past in a moment when NFL is catching on that you don't need to copy Tom Brady to win games...

I don’t see Cleveland even saving him now. I think he’s begun to slide into having to be a coordinator somewhere next. Especially if OSU blows him out again. ScUM won’t ever think of firing him, as they have few other quality options in the _ichgan man territory. He would have to leave and maybe be have to restart

I hope Cleveland isn't that stupid. But Haslam is a special kind... and it just has that Midwest connection feel to it.
I doubt he ever goes back to being a Coordinator. There will be enough midtier P5, bottom feeder P5, Mid Majors, FCS, etc. to keep him employed as a HC for the next 20 years or until he retires by choice.
Sad as that is.
