  1. I don’t think Harbaugh is leaving Michigan. This is just us doing due diligence and Harbaugh trying to raise his pricetag with Michigan.

  2. Not surprising. I did not think Harbaugh had any interest. We should be jumping for joy that a coach as prolific as belichick wants to come here

  3. Doesn’t add up IMO. Who from the Falcons would stand to gain from leaking that a meeting with a top coach candidate was performative? Doesn’t that make the Falcons look bad?

    And who in Harbaugh’s camp would leak it? If it gets out that Harbaugh is taking unserious interviews, doesn’t that hurt any leverage he has in negotiating a contract with the team he actually wants to go to?

  4. Other people close to the front office have said both coaches spent around six hours with Blank so something isn’t adding up.

  5. My conspiracy theory:

    Rick Flatford is a low level employee on ‘Shanks’ show

    Rick Flatford wants attention

    StephenFMT is a throwaway account for Rick Flatford

    u/clonta breaks the tweet on r/Falcons

    u/clonta is Rick Flatford

    Mystery solved!

  6. Ian rapoport just said the interview was in person so this Rick flatford guy is lying. Also he’s apparently just a real estate agent with a few friends in the media lol.

  7. 42 minutes and 1:45 both seem way too short for an NFL head coaching position, don’t they usually go hours and hours even if just for due diligence?

  8. Didn’t Arthur Blank send one of his jets to San Diego to bring him to Atlanta and then fly him back to Michigan after? I mean that’s a lot of effort for fake meeting that was just for show. That doesn’t benefit either camp and honestly it would kind of be disrespectful to Harbaugh. And lastly Harbaugh is a really good coach and the Falcons as an organization aren’t good enough to do that kind of thing it makes no sense and if it’s true then the falcons are not doing this in a thorough way trying to get the best coach and will assuredly fail. I’m not saying Harbaugh is the best coach for the team but they have to look into every single coach and not just get tunnel vision and miss of because Bill B does like Bill P because it will not end well.

  9. What’s the point of interviewing him to be thorough? Not like he’s a part of the Rooney rule
