Just giving you shit. It is interesting that at at least one point in time teams could block assistants from interviewing for promotions.

Where are you reading that? Looking at Fowler's Twitter, I only see Harbaugh mentioned for the DEN job.

JMV called it out about 5:15 on the radio yesterday that Fowler reported Harbaugh wanted to come to Indy. Which with Ballard now firmly back in the fold, I can't see that happening.

The fact that they’ve mentioned 5 interview candidates and not Harbaugh tells me either the Colts aren’t interested or Harbaugh has made it clear he’s not interested.

I’d bet quite a bit of money it’s the latter.

Or he's already been offered and accepted the job, and the Colt's are just going thru the motions !!

There was also a point made that in this same conversation, that I think was with Holder, and his perception is Irsay is only keeping Ballard because he is NOT willing to pay 4 dudes to do the same jobs. Which if the case, then MAYBE Harbaugh would come here as the default GM knowing Ballard is neutered (even more time at the gym hooray) and he is really calling the shots.

The view is there WILL be a Harbaugh interview but it will NOT be until the very end of all of this.

It’s here but I wouldn’t get your hopes up

I'm not getting hopes up for any coach. I think it was a mistake to fire Reich and until a worth a shit coach signs up for the job, I'll continue to think that Jim Irsay's interference will be a huge red flag keeping guys away.

If Harbaugh really wants the Colts job and Irsay doesn't get it done, I will never forgive him! Harbaugh is exactly the guy we need to change the culture here in Indy...this team needs toughened up!

Agree. Whoever it was that was being interviewed, again I think it was Holder, said they believe Harbaugh will be the final interview and that he has indicated he wants to make sure Saturday has been given full interview and consideration before talking to Jim out of respect for Jeff- which if so, that's cool and if all this is happening behind the scenes, great.

We need him here so bad. He isn't going to take any bullshit interference from Irsay and I do believe he would ultimately trump Ballard even if he remains (if he does, just proves to me he is a dude that is not really about anything other than getting a nice check and having this title that allows him to rub elbows with the league's elite- as EVERYONE would understand he is a GM in name only).
