2. John Harbaugh- Baltimore Ravens

Whoa! You mean to tell me that Michigan wants both Harbaughs?! What?

Yep. According to NFL.com senior writer Gil Brandt, the Wolverines may want the elder Harbaugh, John, instead of Jim. John Harbaugh is also from Michigan, as he graduated from Pioneer High School, right across the street from The Big House.

Harbaugh has been extremely impressive as an NFL head coach, spending his last seven years with the Baltimore Ravens where he’s taken the Ravens to the playoffs five times and won a Super Bowl against his brother Jim in 2012. While Harbaugh says he has no interest in leaving the Ravens, the team is still dealing with aftershocks after the Ray Rice incident and he may find himself tired of it. Plus, who knows what kind of check the University of Michigan is willing to write him. They all say they’re not interested in leaving, but we’ll see how true that is during the offseason.
