UM's Manuel shoots down rumors: Harbaugh 'will end his career here'

Ann Arbor — While Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh was reticent to further discuss comments he made earlier Sunday shooting down the annual drone of Harbaugh-to-the-NFL rumors, athletic director Warde Manuel reiterated he expects Harbaugh to finish his coaching career here.

Harbaugh responded sharply — “I addressed that” — when asked following the Michigan Football Awards Show about his comments to ESPN regarding the rumors that began swirling this past week. About this time every postseason, Harbaugh’s name has been linked to NFL vacancies. He previously coached the San Francisco 49ers before taking over at Michigan.
