While growing up, for Jim Harbaugh and his brother, John, the head coach of the Baltimore Ravens, the influence of their father, Jack Harbaugh, reigned supreme. Jack, the former coach of Western Michigan University, fostered a competitive spirit within his sons from a young age. Jim Harbaugh vividly recalls a memory from his childhood, “I remember it was Iowa City, Iowa. I’m like first grade John’ third we didn’t have a car and we had a dealer car for some reason that car wasn’t there dad was taking us to school and we walk out and “We’re like “Where’s the car Dad?”, he goes, “No car today boys. We’re walking grab a basketball let’s get a 100 with the right, 100 with the left.”
Harbaugh’s father ensured that every speech would end with the mandatory rallying cry, “Who’s got it better than us?” that elicited a resounding response from the brothers, “NOBODY, Dad! NOBODY!” This motivated the coaches to carry forward with their winning mentality, no matter how challenging the situation.
