This is abc7 fuse. I am incredibly close to this team and i will forever appreciate that. The parting of ways with a handshake and a hug and the final gameball, its official. 49ers head coach jim harbaugh is leaving the team. Good evening. The team made it official today tweeting out the 49ers and jim harbaugh have mutually agreed to partways and we thank jim for bringing a tremendous competitive nature and a great passion for the game. Make shumann with more on todays announce ept in. What say you . I say they are getting rid of a really good football coach. The 49ers put out a statement after the the game during harbaughs press conference that they mutually decided to partways. This was no surprise after a season of discontent and no playoff run. But it ends with his 49th victory. Harbaugh knew he was done and made sure he enjoyed the final game. The players have a lot of respect for him whether they liked him or not. It had to be an emotional day for coach. They went to three straight title games. Harbaugh would not confirm he is going to michigan but if so i am surprised he didnt play out the process and see what is available to him in the nfl. If the raiders owner mark davis who wants to meet with harbaugh offers him 10 million a year would jim take it . Michigan had that advantage to talk with harbaugh without tampering as they wanted to get the deal done for recruiting purposes. He gave thanks in his final press conference. I thought we accomplished great things. Tremendous football. So many people worked so hard to construct where this Football Team is. Feel great to be a part of it. It has been a signature year in my life and i have much gratitude for everyone involved. Much respect for him as a man and a coach. We will look ahead to potential replacements and hear from his players coming up in sports. As i mentioned, the players love him and unfortunately it didnt work out with the front office.

As the sign says who has it better than us . Michigan. Some even showed up in the Michigan Team colors. It is a bittersweet moment as we enjoyed harbaugh during the days at michigan i welcome him back. During the game there was some hope that harbaugh wouldnt leave. The 49er faithful showed plenty of appreciation, but no one was sprayed when the final announcement came down. It is a sad day for 9er fans. Very sad. Good for him. He will be the highest paid coach in college. I am happy for him. I dont want harbaugh to leave, but he wears out his welcome wherever he goes. Why is that .
