"Harbaugh signed a four-year extension with revised financial terms effective Jan. 11, 2021," according to Shefter.
He has compiled a 49-22 record in six seasons but has gone 0-5 against Ohio State, 1-4 in bowl games and never appeared in the Big 10 Championship game, let alone winning the conference.
This past season Michigan football went 2-4 including losing in a stunning upset to a rebuilding Michigan State Spartans squad despite being heavily favored.
It had been rumored the past couple weeks that the University of Michigan has been negotiating an incentive-heavy new deal with Harbaugh including a lower buyout amount should the NFL come calling.
