INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — Jim Harbaugh fulfilled one of his goals by winning a national championship at his alma mater.
Now he's looking to capture his ultimate goal of hoisting the Lombardi Trophy with one of the teams he played for.
Harbaugh resumed his pursuit of a Super Bowl title on Thursday when he was introduced as the Los Angeles Chargers' coach. He agreed to terms on a five-year contract last Wednesday after nine seasons at the University of Michigan, including going 15-0 and winning the school's first national championship since 1997 last month.
“It was time. I said this the other day, there’s only so many sands left in the hourglass. I want another shot to simply be known as world champions and to win the Lombardi Trophy. That’s my mission,” he said. “I felt that the Spanos family and organization made clear they like what I did and how I did it. That’s all you want from an employer.”
