Jerry Jabber Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 Expect Marrone to be gone at the end of the season. Pegula will want his own people running things. The only way Marrone was staying was if the Bills made a deep playoff push. He's hoping if the Bills win on Sunday, that he'll still have a job, that's why he's playing Orton instead of Manuel.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 Michigan is pretty damn serious about trying to get Harbaugh. Latest contract offer was rumored to be $48M / 6 Years. To put that into perspective, that's more than Saban is making at Bama. . we could pay him 10 mil or more Terry Warbucks can give what he wants.
RealityCheck Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 Harbaugh's success is not exclusively his own. That 49's team that he inherited was talented from top to bottom, left to right. He is a good coach who landed a gig with talent on hand from the previous regime. Rex Ryan benefited too from a roster that was headed towards a high physical peak themselves, built under the previous regime. These guys are very good coaches, but you have to have a sense of proportion when weighed against their respective rosters at a given point in time. The 49'rs level of talent is trailing off and so too are the wins. Go figure. Besides, he lost to the lowly Raiders.
negativo Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 Sorry, but Harbaugh is 51 years old. I know our cupboards are bare at QB, but we should really go with someone under 35 IMO.
DallasBillsFan1 Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 My concern is if he ends up at the Jets.
Canadian Bills Fan Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 My concern is if he ends up at the Jets. No way he goes to the Jets CBF
CodeMonkey Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 (edited) I think your logic for #2 applies to every other bills team of the last 15 years but not to this team.... There are a couple attractive things we have now: 1. Stable Ownership (most important factor) 2. May be willing to offer him full control over personell 3. Talented defense with depth and plenty of young talent 4. Pegula can afford to pay him 5. He would be a god in this town the day he signed. No established coach will want to come to a team with no starting QB, and no 1st round draft pick in the upcoming draft to get one. Any large market team can pay what Pegula will pay.

jethro_tull Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 thank god you mentioned this....took over a loaded teams with #1 picks all over the field - he's a descent coach but he's not gonna out coach anyone, he's looking to be the coach/gm with total control ....not here bud. AND he's available why again?????? Exactly. The team that he goes to (and there are some desperate teams out there) should think short term contract with incentives. And sign it with a pencil. Sorry, but Harbaugh is 51 years old. I know our cupboards are bare at QB, but we should really go with someone under 35 IMO. Spoken with the true wisdom that comes from experience.
YoloinOhio Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 So the word here is he 1000 percent going to announce he is going to M after the season. Done deal. I have no idea how credible the source is but from within OSU program.
negativo Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Twitter blowing up with Harbaugh to Michigan reports. All I can say is...told ya so, bitchez!!

TSOL Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Sorry, but Harbaugh is 51 years old. I know our cupboards are bare at QB, but we should really go with someone under 35 IMO. Theyre talkin about him as coach, not QB.

negativo Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Theyre talkin about him as coach, not QB. Really?
YoloinOhio Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 So, OSU fans, are you guys getting nervous? Get ready for a return of the cooper years!! bring back the rivalry IMO. It's good for the big 10. They should have just kept rich rod though. 10x cheaper, same results.
TAinLack. Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Harbaugh to Michigan...., count on it!!! Go Blue!!!!
YoloinOhio Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 @Johnubacon: I just got off the phone with more sources tonight. It's done. Jim Harbaugh is coming to Michigan - and his friends are flying in Monday. Harbaugh to Michigan...., count on it!!! Go Blue!!!! 10 year war part 2?
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 I know he won't be coming. He is overrated. He has good coordinators, is a good coach but he's not all that. His teams overachieved the past few years and have underachieved just as much. They'll never get far in the West as it is. The 9ers remind me of the Eagles last decade. How'd they over achieved? They were stacked with gore, Willis, Davis, bowman, Crabtree, smith anchoring a stout front 4 Boldin... The list goes on.
Augie Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 So the word here is he 1000 percent going to announce he is going to M after the season. Done deal. I have no idea how credible the source is but from within OSU program. Competition and the buzz would be good for the entire Big 10. OSU needs at least one good win every year, and what could be better and more rewarding than beating a Harbaugh?
boyst Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 How'd they over achieved? They were stacked with gore, Willis, Davis, bowman, Crabtree, smith anchoring a stout front 4 Boldin... The list goes on. in their division, they overachieved. its a very tough division, they won games they shouldn't have won and had no business winning. then facing the Panthers in the playoffs was a joke, the Panthers were ten times more overrated last year and ten times overachieved.
