Jim Harbaugh was set to become one of the highest-paid coaches till he faced a huge blow. University of Michigan‘s sign-stealing scandal has escalated to a whole new level. Before the scandal, discussions about the HC signing a new contract were already ongoing. Harbaugh was set to make $36.68 Million through 2026 with an annual compensation of over $7M.
