Welcome back to another episode of the Wolverine.com podcast. Clayton Safie here with Chris Ballas and Anthony Broom on your Friday here to get your weekend started.

We're going to discuss the Jim Harbaugh contract extension that was finally signed.

It's a long time coming there last couple months. We'll discuss that.

Some of the staff changes, spring ball starting on Monday, and then we'll get to basketball at the end.

Of course, a big win last night over Iowa.

But fellas, let's start with the Jim Harbaugh contract.

Of course, it didn't come the day after, even two days after,

three days after, or a week after he had the interview with the Vikings and came back to Michigan.

But it's finally done.

The interesting things here, he's up around $8 million if you include the insurance policy,

which is a million dollars.

And Chris, you had had some of those figures reported already, you know, the contract that

was basically on the table ready for him to sign prior to the whole flirtation

with the Vikings.

Then the buyout is another one.

$3 million this coming year, but it goes down each year and basically dissolves.

I think nothing within four years, if that's correct.

So that's interesting there.

I was looking up the top buyouts in college football.

You got Jimbo fisher at like

50 or something or 30 some of these guys are up over 20 it's insane you can't leave um and you know i guess it makes sense it's like if you're gonna if you're gonna pay a guy like jimbo like 11 million a year or whatever it is you meant you want to make sure he's not going to jump ship like he did to come to your school if you're

Texas A&M but your guys' thoughts on on all that because I think a lot of people figured all right
