Harbaugh going to Michigan?
http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/12...sportscenterFB
Multiple NFL and Michigan sources had said for weeks that 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh was not expected to wind up at Michigan, but in recent days at least one person familiar with his thinking said he was at least "considering it." According to multiple reports, Michigan has made a six-year, $49 million offer to Harbaugh. The offer was earlier reported by CBS5 in Arizona. The annual average pay of $8.17 million would make Harbaugh the highest-paid college football coach, surpassing Alabama's Nick Saban by more than $1.21 million. Another person close to the process said that while it was possible Harbaugh could wind up at Michigan, "it was not likely." Asked why he was considering it now, but hadn't been previously, one person said now that the 49ers are out of the playoffs, it was possible for Harbaugh to at least consider the offer. |

Does this commonly occur where college teams can openly court a professional coach before his season is done?

Maybe, I would rather him go back to the NCAA instead of the Raiders.

I doubt it.
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. |

I think Michigan sources have confirmed it, so while it may drive up the NFL bidding, they apparently actually made the offer.

Are there not rules in place that keep or try to keep the alumni from giving the coaches incentives?

There's no salary cap on how much colleges can pay NCAA coaches. So why would it matter if it comes from a booster vs. the university? If anything, the college would probably underpay because that salary is public. I'm sure the perks and incentives for college coaches is through the roof.
