Jim Harbaugh attacked his first news conference of 2022 with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind, using bold rhetoric and answering pointed questions. He called his Michigan football program “scary good” and said to reporters that, from where he stands, the door to the NFL is closed.
Harbaugh, who was in a jovial mood, made those remarks Tuesday — 34 days after he flew to Minnesota for an interview with the Vikings. Harbaugh’s rumored interest in a return to the professional ranks dominated the headlines in the month following the Wolverines’ maiden voyage in the College Football Playoff.
