The next time that scUM fan you know starts flapping his gums about how crazy 'ol Jim Harbaugh is the second coming, I wanted to point out that while the reputation of Harbaugh is formidable, his coaching record is not:
| Meyer | Harbaugh | Meyer (first four seasons) | |
| Overall college coaching record | 142-26 (.845) | 29-21 (.580) | 39-8 (.830) |
| Conference record | 84-18 (.824) | 21-15 (.583) | 24-6 (.800) |
| Bowl Record | 9-2 (.818) | 1-1 (.500) | 2-0 |
| National Titles | 3 | 0 | 0 |
| Winning/losing seasons | 13/0 | 2/2 | 4/0 |
| Conference titles | 8 | 0 | 2 |
