Harbaugh Mania

Listen, nobody loves Jim Harbaugh more than I do. He quarterbacked my Colts to the edge of the Super Bowl. Gutty, tough, fun to watch, and I think hes an excellent coach. But this is getting ridiculous.

Reports are that the Dolphins are set to offer him between 7-8 million dollars per year to swim with the Fish. That would make him the highest paid coach in the NFL. Really? More than Belichick? Come on.

Hes won in the Pac-10 with the best QB in the country. Lets dont act like he has reinvented the game here. Again, I like the guy. But Im not sure he is Vince Lombardi yet. The Harbaugh Mania is going a bit overboard. Hes being built up to the point that now no matter where he goes he is set up to disappoint.
