HOUSTON (AP) — Michigan's climb back to the summit of college football ended with its 34-13 win over Washington in the College Football Playoff championship game on Monday night.
Next, the Wolverines and their fans wait and see if Jim Harbaugh stays or goes.
Harbaugh deflected all questions about his future during the lead-up to the title game, but decision time is drawing near as at least a half-dozen NFL franchises begin or consider searching for new coaches.
Harbaugh looked into NFL jobs the last two years before deciding to stay at Michigan. It's possible he won't this time, especially with the school facing possible NCAA sanctions for recruiting violations and the sign-stealing scandal that hung over the team all season.
