In fairness, Mel Tucker, Jimbo Fisher, and Ed Orgeron might all be on that list

There are some obvious other advantages in being an NFL coach of course.  I'd guess they get quite a bit more time off.

Well, NC teams usually don't have their coaches flee to the NFL to avoid NCAA investigations...
Harbaugh has always shared his desire to go back to the NFL so I'm not sure why people jump to this. He won a national championship and has always vocalized his ultimate goal is to win a Super Bowl. 

Secondly, Jesse Minter and Harbaugh currently have the lowest PPG defense in the NFL, a team that was ranked 23rd a year ago. So while so many have to convince themselves the only reason Michigan won is because they cheated, maybe it's possible their coaching, especially on the defensive side of the ball were just incredibly talented and better than their peers and it was time to move to the ultimate coaching platform in their sport.

Yes, I get it. 

If you've always voiced a desire to retire in Costa Rica, and you retire in Costa Rica, then it all makes sense. 

However if you do so right after you've robbed a bank and the Feds are closing in around you, some might claim that the decision had ulterior motives beyond just an expressed desire.

Yeah, except there's no tangible proof that you actually robbed the bank. The bank had excessive losses in types of transactions that all banks partake in, which is a gray area but is common, so instead of owning the inability to navigate the market, crying robbery is just the methodology of those that always find excuses instead of facing the truth of inferiority.

Oh, we *know* the bank was robbed. 

What we don't know is whether the robber made away with the entire contents of the vault for millions of dollars, or just grabbed what he could get out of one teller's till and realized later he took all that risk for a measly $500. 

But the fact that rules laws were broken is kinda beyond dispute at this point.

Lol. That’s a pretty funny and very fair response. Well done sir. You got a good laugh out of me on that one.
