It’s been Tea Leaf Reading season for awhile now regarding the University of Michigan’s search for a new head coach, but the DetroitSportsRag might have something definitive to report regarding Jim Harbaugh’s interest in the vacancy.
As alluded to earlier today on MGoBlog.com, inrecentdaysJim Harbaugh sent a text message to Andy Moeller (an offensive line coach on the Browns and the son of Gary Moeller) stating that it looked like they’d be “getting the band back together.”
Our source is inside the U of M athletic department and well connected. Also, we confirmed the text message story through a former Michigan football player.
The “band” being former Michigan players led by Harbaugh heading back to Ann Arbor in an attempt to resurrect the Michigan football program. There has been speculation that Moeller would be a part of Harbaugh’s staff if he left the NFL for U of M.
It’s probably not a coincidence that LSU head coach Les Miles basically backed out of the fray this evening (when he wasn’t really a part of it in the first place from all indications.)
Everything is pointing towards Harbaugh getting the gig and Tuesday might be a big day in that effort moving forward.

Hunter Lochmann, Michigan's chief marketing officer in athletics, was asked Friday during the IMG Intercollegiate Athletics Forum about paying college athletes.
Lochmann, according to the Sports Business Journal, spoke about the tradition of Michigan's Block M.
"The athletes are there for four years," Lochmann said, according to the report. "At Michigan, it's the Block M that has the infinity and power, not Denard Robinson. Those are fleeting, four-year relationships, but it's the block M that's been there for over 150 years."
