mic. Former PFF. Lifelong Vikings fan. So he's been in it with you this entire time. He knows

exactly what this is like. Kurt says how much different to this franchise look like if they

0:33.3

hired Jim Harbaugh. I feel like that's a topic for a for July or something.

0:38.2

I don't know. They've won a lot of games with KOC. But last year, Harbaugh got his team to the playoffs in his first year like KOC did. They got killed. So I don't know. Harbaugh is a good coach. KOC is a good coach. Maybe their identity is different. but, you know, we're seeing it now with them
