Jim Harbaugh is truly a football man.
The head coach of the Wolverines will take the field Friday night with his team to play Georgia in the College Football Playoff. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)
For the first time in at least 15 years, Michigan is relevant on the national stage, and their coach isn’t disappointing fans during discussions with the media. In fact, he wants people to know he loves his job so much that he’d do it for free!

“I would do this job for free,” Harbaugh told the press Thursday when talking about his job, according to Zach Shaw.
Harbaugh adds, in a different answer: “I would do this job for free.”

A lot of people might say stuff like this when talking about their jobs, but very few actually mean it. How many of you reading this would wake up every day and do your job for free? The answer is not many.
However, when Harbaugh says it, I 100% believe it. I have no doubt at all that he’s being dead serious. He’s a man who simply loves football.

Not only does he love football, but Jim Harbaugh is wildly authentic. No matter what you think about him as a coach, he is who he is, and he doesn’t run from it.
In an era and culture where authenticity is about as rare as a unicorn sighting, I applaud the hell out of Harbaugh for refusing to change.
We need more people like him in this world, not less.

Now, he needs to go out and beat Georgia. I picked the Wolverines to pull off a stunning upset, and he better not disappoint!
