San Francisco 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh faked out the media in what many believe will be his final game with the organization by emerging from a different tunnel.

Barring something odd, Jim Harbaugh will coach his final game with the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday afternoon.

Where he goes from here is still an unknown. Most believe he’ll be hired by the University of Michigan though there are still some NFL teams like the Oakland Raiders hoping to bring him aboard. Whatever happens, the former NFL quarterback isn’t likely to remain with the 49ers organization.

Given that, national and local media have been doing whatever they can to get a quote/interview from Harbaugh and waited for the coach to emerge from the 49ers tunnel. Only problem? He wasn’t there.

Instead Jim Harbaugh decided to come onto the field via the opposing tunnel leaving the crowd of reporters unable to bother the 49ers coach.

There are very few San Francisco 49ers fans who are happy with the current situation and most would prefer that general manager Trent Baalke be given his walking papers instead of Jim Harbaugh.

Yet, that’s not the decision the York family, owners of the organization appear willing to make as it appears it’s Harbaugh as the odd man out and not Baalke.

If the coach does leave the NFL for the NCAA ranks, his unique and sometimes over the top ways will certainly be missed.
