Part of the reason they love Harbaugh stories, aside from the clicks, is because, with him not in the league, they can basically make up whatever they want. There are a lot of rules around NFL teams speaking with coaches on other teams, but not so with college coaches. So they can say the Bears have talked to Harbaugh, are getting information, or however they want to frame it. "Have had conversations" is my favorite. "Hey, should we consider Harbaugh?" "No." Conversations had.
Most of them have convinced themselves of these weird narratives like Harbaugh is desperate to go to Chicago since they drafted him and the Bears want him badly. Just ignore the fact the job has been open 3 times since he left San Fran.
Anyway, look at this reaction from Ryan Poles when he was asked about Harbaugh today.
