The NCAA will reportedly charge Michigan Head Coach Jim Harbaugh a Level 1 violation for allegedly misleading investigators during the 2020 season. The Los Angeles Chargers are also reportedly interested in signing Harbaugh to replace Brandon Staley. Colin Cowherd explains why he does not believe Harbaugh will leave Michigan and also shares his reaction to the NCAA punishing the Wolverines program. Meanwhile, Justin Fields touts his “improvement” as his future with the Chicago Bears remains uncertain. However, Colin is still not sold on Fields and breaks down why the Bears should move on and go get another QB through the draft.

Will Jim Harbaugh leave Michigan for Chargers or NFL, Justin Fields still not Bears guy? | THE HERD
The Herd with Colin Cowherd
https://www.youtube.com/c/colincowherd
I did confirm last night uh and yesterday afternoon that the Chargers are very interested in Jim Harbaugh he’s at the top of the wish list my hunch is he would rather stay at Michigan but a lot of things will change and this is one of the things that will change the
NCAA and they did it on Signing Day oh how Petty of the NCAA it’s how they roll the NCAA charging harau in Michigan with a level one violation for providing false and misleading information during the covid season I mean governments were giving us false and misleading information Michigan football can’t they
Also say there was some impermissible contact with recruits uh for level two violations oh really you mean the same kind of recruits you can buy out of high school now so this is classic NCAA classic pettiness uh Jim Harbaugh for the record he’s going to be
Fine if the NCAA comes down down too harshly too punitively he’ll just leave and then Michigan’s then holding the bag and you say so what but the great college football coaches demand that you surrender some of your power to them Sabin did it dabo’s done it Harbaugh does it if you don’t relinquish
Some power you can’t get him or they leave and that’s the reality of it Sabin was the first to really Flex Harbaugh’s done it as well he doesn’t really have a boss and that’s why Michigan football’s good and by the way the last two years in college football the ratings have
Gone up due to Michigan football’s emergence in Deion Sanders the SEC congratulations in the South they were hurting the sport the sport was on a six and seveny year ratings Decline and then Harbaugh and Dion Sanders changed it all these allegations just cracked me up Mis misleading information during
Co the covid football season in the NFL and college was a circus universities were taking loans from Banks they couldn’t pay bills government’s providing misleading information we were all making stuff up nobody knew what was right and wrong even hospitals the other one is Advanced scouting concerns with Conor stallions
Yeah scouting’s legal just not too much of it the Jim Harbaugh critics he’s going to win right he wasn’t on the field for six games this year they were six and0 five blowout wins he going to be fine he’s going to go to the NFL he’s going to get
20 million a year to me the NCAA should spend their time reforming the nil it’s a bit of a mess now reforming as best they can the transfer portal they’ve done a pretty good job there more needed and reforming the NCAA rule book misinformation during the covid
Season I mean honestly so did the New York Times hospitals governments that that’s your that’s your level one violation well the advanced scouting yeah they beat Ohio state three years in that year they stopped Advanced scouting they beat him again pushed him around the field 200 yards rushing in the
Second half so every sanction by the NCAA against Michigan I think the NCAA Petty as always wants us to think hara’s done it and it’s been sketchy no it just enlightens how misguided and Petty the NCAA is and how it’s completely out of touch if you’re banging on any program for the covid
Years I mean bellich told people he didn’t even he just gave up that year like they Michigan Harbaugh if they were if they had all this great information why is it the only bad year Harbaugh ever had at Michigan teams gave up they made stuff up they went to Banks
Everybody was just bailing water hospitals were governments were the sport was media had layoffs it would the country was in turmoil that’s your big G some misinformation during covid Petty as usual so um it’s that time of the year again no not to unwrap presents uh and and drink eggnog no no
It’s the time of the year when everybody in the NFL asks themselves do we have the right coach and do we have the right quarterback some teams absolutely do the Rams Baltimore the Chiefs right coach right quarterback other teams think they do and we’re pretty sure they do but we’re
Not sure with one of them Dallas Buffalo Houston we like them both but they’re young right the coach and the quarterback in Chicago they probably don’t have either okay well he has improved he tells no lies in year one he completed 59% of his throws in year two he
Completed 60 in year three 61 from 2 and 8 to 3 and2 to 3 and7 his touchdown to interception ratio is better so is his passer rating but this year it’s 856 last year it was 852 he has slightly improved but Lamar Jackson Josh Allen Jaylen Herz
Exploded as they grew they were tech stocks this is like a 401k we keep getting promised hey just wait someday you’ll be rich people don’t have time to wait every quarterback who’s special in this league showed us something by year three momes Lamar burrow Herbert Allan Dak Russell Wilson Trevor Lawrence every
One of them the returns on the investment to this point aren’t there and the improvement’s gradual and people can say well the organization has poor ownership in the wrong coach Kyler Murray says hold my beer first three years he’ been a pro bowler twice year three led him to the
Playoffs Arizona’s arguably the worst run team in the league Matt Stafford was hurt in year two year three in the NFL he left the baguer Lions to the playoffs both Kyler Murray and Matt Stafford are the word I use often Overcomers well Colin there’s been injuries mhm same
With Tua year three he led the NFL in passer rating bad coach bad owner bad culture some injuries bad o line Joe burrow had the lowest rated offensive line and got his team to the Super Bowl Justin Herbert as a rookie had the lowest rated offensive line 32 in the
NFL and set rookie passing records the o line for the Bears just isn’t that bad their tackles are pretty good they’ve got a number one receiver and a number one tight end their defense in the last six weeks is really good really solid backs are okay even have a
Number two running back don’t have to love the coach but do you love Cliff Kingsbury Kyler still took it in a better division of the playoffs did you like Detroit Matt Stafford year three that roster that coach he took him to the playoffs he hasn’t shown the ability to
Pop don’t think the coach is perfect don’t think the GM’s Elite or the team president or the poor ownership I’m not blaming it all on Justin Fields but the great ones overcome they don’t have to have everything lined up I mean Matt Stafford this this year he’ll play
Tonight has a chance right now they’re in the playoffs Cooper Cup’s not healthy his most reliable receiver is a fifth round rookie their offensive line is in flux their best player the right tackle Rob havenstein’s older and missed games the defense has one star past his Prime and kids and they’re on a
Heater but he’s got McVey mm he does congrats he’s got that one thing like a really good coach I like Justin fields I think he’s worth a second round pick I think he’d be great in Atlanta but when I hear Improvement I got to see a little Tech
Stock I got I I got to see I got to see more than passer rating at 90 88 to 88.7 it’s that time of the Season everybody that doesn’t have a great coach and a great quarterback Rams Baltimore Buffalo they think Kansas City not many there’s about six that are
Absolute and six we can AR you over but these are the discussions you have to have and at this point top to bottom with the Bears I’d blow it up and start over Eber flu had a good second half defensive coach sometimes looks over his skis I’d probably blow it up and start

I don’t think the charger’s will pay him the 10/15 million dollars he wants. He makes 9 now. I think I stick with fields and take Harrison
Jim Harbaugh would be perfect for Justin. Pound the rock play action, Zone read Are defense is almost there. The problem is he wants to be paid like a Franchise QB, and wants complete control. Maybe he has changed his stance?
Well I guess the Bears should pick up and old vet next season, again, draft a QB, again, and put him in the same position, again, change his coach, again, and the Bears start all over and be a bottom dweller team, again. All of those teams had stable coaches while the Bears are on their second coach in three years. So, I guess the Bears should get rid of the most talented QB they have had in favor of who? Caleb Williams? NO! Then, the so-called sportscasters complain about how the Bears have never had a franchise QB. It's because the Bears are being stupid and following stupid advice like this. Bring in Caleb Willams or any other QB, I guarantee the same thing will happen to them in about 3-5 years.
No way Dean Spano is gonna pay 20mi a year for Jim, forgot. No way Jim Harbaugh is gonna deal with Dean Spano and a young cheap GM not being allowed to bring who he wants to his staff.
If Jim leaves Michigan it's gonna be for Buffalo, New England or Chicago (Caleb Williams)
Wow shocking the FOX employee is gonna downplay all of Michigan’s violations
How is Colin a bigger Michigan defender than Rich Eisen?
I still think the Vikings should have hired Harbaugh.
So what you're telling me is the Michigan Wolverines in the last 2 years have been what brought fans back to college football? Then they must be disappointed because they got absolutely destroyed by Georgia in the Orange Bowl so bad that they still have nightmares about Georgia and then got embarrassed by TCU last year… just because you're not an SEC fan. Don't say that they're hurting the sport..
And the last 18 years There's been only three teams that's not in the SEC that won the national title.. That must mean that a lot of years no one was watching college football… It's amazing they'll let any idiot have their own show.. there's going to be a lot of idiots next year upset when they go to a 12-team playoff, because of worrying about two SEC teams in a four-team playoff, you could literally have seven SEC teams in the top 12.. especially now that they're adding Texas and Oklahoma…
We'll see what happens when Michigan gets exposed by Alabama and beaten by at least two touchdowns. Is that going to bring fans back to college football win for the third consecutive year Michigan Underachieves
This segment shows Colin doesn’t do his homework. He wanna throw up stats for Justin’s first 3 years in the league but wanna act like he didn’t play on a JV squad last season
Since when did you become such a UM homer?? Kinda weird…and let’s be honest, NCAA picks on everyone who screws up! Why would they just pick on UM over and over again for no reason?? Just because??
Where there is smoke…there is fire.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 pity as always
Fields is awesome. His o-line and WRs suck.
Nope. Spanos is a cheapskate! No headlining coach will come to the Chargers after a 14-2 Schottenheimer lead team got fired for wanting to bring in a Defensive Coordinater that beat the Bolts following year, Jets, another 😢Schottenheimer
Colin Cowherd showing his bias in bold colors. Harbaugh violated the rules and should be punished. And he needs to get his facts right.
Why dont you talk about the NBA’s 20+ year ratings decline Colin??? Lol. NBA ratings have completely tanked under Lebron, Steph and Adam Silvers watch.
So you want Justin to do what? Come out & say I suck & that they should go ahead & move on & I’m ok with that? How would that look? What would you say about him then? I’m a Lions fan but I don’t get this take at all. He said all he could say & you’re gonna sit there & be little him for “not improving enough”. Peyton Manning took like 9 years to get to the AFC championship game. Justin Herbert has yet to win a playoff game going into is 5th or 6th year. Dak has yet to win the division back to back times or win back to back playoff games in 8 years going into his 9th & everyone still thinks he should make 50 million a year like I just don’t get all the blame on Justin & everyone else gets nothing but excuses.
If you don’t leave Michigan for the chargers job, he won’t ever come to the nfl again. Therefore, he’s gone. He’s going to the chargers.
Im confused. Fields is trash right but trade him for a 2nd rd pick? Why? If he's trash then why is he worth a 2nd? Atlanta will be a great fit for him but not for Chicago? Surround the man with talent. Build the team up and change the bears organization
Why would the NCAA try to push out one of their best coaches.. what does losing Jim Harbaugh to the NFL hurt the quality of competition in ncaa?
Everyone wants to blame Getsy. While I am not defending him, Justin absolutely has a hand in this. He also has a legit number 1 receiver, solid running game, and a top tier tight end. He has the weapons to be successful now
Alabama can hire a former coach before a PLAYOFF game but you can’t watch a game in person 😂. Alrighty then
Michigan sucks. Harbaugh is a fraud and cheater. Roll damn Tide
@TheHerdOnFS1,
I've been a Bears Fanatic for 53 years, if the bears get rid of our Best Draft Pick since Walter Payton, in Justin Fields: I'm out as a Bears Fanatic, I'm getting a New Team!
There's a Reason the Chicago Bears Organization has NEVER had a Franchise Quarterback! Terrible!
My god, these bowl games are terrible. I can't even watch them. I wouldn't even watch them if all the best players actually did show up. The non-playoff games are absolutely worthless. That's just where we are in college football now.
Love Colin. He calls it fair no emotions straight down the middle.
How do you miss it?
2-9 post season
Losing record against rival
Average under top 10 recruitment
Has had losing season at Michigan.
Around 74 percent wins in college.
Only started to win after cheating.
Terrible at press meetings.
This is your Hero ? Wake up dude!
My RESPECT FOR THIS GUY IS GONE. FIELDS IS ELITE. His opinion is WRONG. FIELDS STATS ARE UNMATCHED if you do your HOMEWORK. Only LAMAR JACKSON was better in his first 3 years in TOTAL YARDAGE.DONE
Josh Allen had Cole besley, diggs and Knox
Hurts has brown, smith, Dallas, and a great Oline
Justin has Moore, Kemt, and his legs. They 2 situations aren’t close at all to Justin’s. He’s improved but you need people to catch the damn ball as well
Rumors… Jim Harbaugh will find work and remains a topic of conversation.
Harbaugh broke the rules…..don't make excuses for him.
Come to Dallas
reemergence (not immergence) [of Michigan]
He should take the Chargers job. The Chargers should pursues him aggressively! This might be a great matchup. Herbert will be what he supposed to be under a good coach.
Harbaugh to the Bears!
Fields clears Williams
I hitched my wagon to Justin's star when we got him. I soooooo badly wanted him to be the guy, but it's year 3 and I'm still seeing a lot of the same rookie blemishes. I know he is close with Poles and there's a good chance he sticks around, but a lot of people are at the point where he just still isn't passing the eyeball test. We're either going to reload around him by trading back for a king's ransom or we're gonna try and trade him for a third rounder after March 13th.
A lot of teams would love to have him and maybe with the right coaching they can unlock something that just isn't meant to be here. I would love nothing more than for him to prove me wrong and end up being the guy for us, but so far it just isn't there. The big ''ou la la'' run plays are fun and all, but it isn't sustainable.
My gut says Poles keeps him, but who knows?
Don Yee reps Brady and now Harbaugh, and Brady is in the process of buying into the Raiders (as a minority owner). Seems to point to Brady recommending Harbaugh to go to Las Vegas for that job. No reports to this effect, just me putting the pieces together.
Caleb Williams is 1 year younger than Justin. He's 6ft tall and slower. He can't win in USC, but they say it's because he's surrounded by not so great talent. Ok, I'm sorry has Justin been surrounded by Talent? Justin has had 3 coaches in this time span. He's had Dj moore for 1 year and look at the stats passing to him. I'm not saying Justin is the guy, but if this bum thinks Caleb is going to come in and do better he's as bad as his Sam Darnold take. Remember last year he said Bears should draft Bryce Young, he's a better talent than Justin.
