Colleges can and do pay a shitload more for good coaches.
If Michigan pays that much for Harbaugh, they are getting an absolute bargain when you think about how much money Harbaugh would bring into the program.

Again... if Harbaugh doesn't take the deal, it's because of his family. He would be batshit crazy not to go to Michigan.

Now Gruden has signed a contract with ESPN through 2021 I believe, and the Raiders allegedly offered him much more than 8 mil a year. It also sounds like Harbaugh is really not keen about moving to a different state.

I would think it would be hard to get anyone to leave the west coast for Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Talk about culture shock. Always warm to mostly cold.

I really doubt that they offered him that much.

Between salary + incentives + boosters... Michigan by a mile
Best chance to win a championship... Michigan by a mile
Ability to recruit top notch talent... Michigan by a mile
Long-term stability... Michigan by a mile

The only reason Harbaugh would accept the Raiders' offer is if his family was deadset on staying in California. There is no good reason otherwise.

I doubt it would be a culture shock for a person who grew up and spent pretty much his entire career in the upper midwest.

This is the least shocking news ever. Not sure he'll take it. Mitch Holthus was openly talking on the radio about him to the Raiders a couple weeks ago. Said his wife wanted to stay in the Bay Area.

Well if he likes the cold, snowy shit that is Michigan good for him I guess. Most people would stay on the west coast for less money.

Or they might go somewhere where they have a better chance of winning, making more money, have more autonomy in decision-making, and have a shitload better job security

Did Michigan offer him 15 mil?

How can you possibly know what Oakland offered him when it would be tampering for any leak of the offer to be reported?

Nobody turn their nose up at 50 million because of weather.

I'm referring to the supposed figure Oakland proposed to Gruden, not Harbaugh.

I'm sure that between the contract + incentives + perks, money is not going be the reason Harbaugh turns Michigan down.

He is not going to get $50M more there than Cali.

It would take you $50M ABOVE another contract to convince you to move to the midwest?

$50M is a bunch of money. In addition to walking into what most would view as a dream job. Even if the Raiders matched, it's a tough offer to beat.
