3 minIndianapolis Colts Next Head Coach Odds: Jim Harbaugh the Massive Favorite
The Indianapolis Colts have been looking for a new head coach for weeks after they fired Frank Reich in the middle of the 2022 season. But, it's a name that didn't become available until a few days ago that seems to be atop the Indianapolis Colts next head coach odds.
That name is none other than current Michigan Wolverine head coach and former San Francisco 49er head coach Jim Harbaugh.
Harbaugh has had tons of success in the Big Ten. Originally, it was thought that he may never get over the hump of beating bitter rival Ohio State. But, Michigan and Harbaugh have now beaten the Buckeyes two years in a row and made the CFP.
However, it seems as though Harbaugh's eyes are always looking forward, which is why he's the favorite when it comes to Indianapolis Colts next head coach odds.
Harbaugh famously interviewed with the Minnesota Vikings last offseason only to decide to return to Michigan for another year. But, it's been rumored that he could be interested in heading to the NFL again.
The most promising thing about taking the Colts' head coaching position is that Harbaugh would likely get one of the top QBs in the 2023 NFL Draft. Right now, Indianapolis holds the No. 4 pick, but it's rumored that Chicago could be looking to trade out of the top spot, which would be a great spot for Indy to try and move up.
The move makes all the sense in the world for Indy. But, will Jim Harbaugh be the next head coach of the Indianapolis Colts? What's my prediction for this one? Let's take a look at the odds to try and find out.
