Jim Harbaugh wasn’t a part of his family’s championship tradition until Monday, and now he get to enjoy the fruits of his latest victory.
“Me personally, I can now sit at the big person’s table in the family,” he jokingly told reporters after leading Michigan to a 34-13 victory over Washington in the College Football Playoff National Championship Game.
His father, Jack, led Western Kentucky to an NCAA Division I-AA Football Championship title as head coach, while his brother, John, led the Baltimore Ravens to a Super Bowl title.
Jim Harbaugh probably doesn’t like reflecting on his brother’s Lombardi Trophy, as he was the head coach on the other sideline for the San Francisco 49ers. Baltimore won a closely contested game 34-31 in Harbaugh’s second of four seasons as head coach of the 49ers.
Perhaps the leader of the Wolverines will get another chance at a Super Bowl if he makes the jump back to the NFL this offseason.
If he does, he can at least leave Michigan knowing he was a national champion.
