This is the second time I've seen this sentiment posted here (maybe you did it both times).
Regardless, hasn't Harbaugh been wildly successful at all his head coaching stops? (Along with being wildly a pain in the ass?).
Given that he replicated his success at the 49ers, and then at Michigan (the year before Harbaugh was hired, Brady Hoke went 5-7, and while Harbaugh hasn't brought Michigan any Big Ten championships yet, he won an average of 9 games his first five years there, and this might be the year he broke through).
The question is whether the conditions exist at Stanford for anyone to replicate what Harbaugh did. The two Johns plus Bowlsby created a much more favorable environment for football than Mark, Prell, and Muir.
