Drama queen and entertainer, Jim Harbaugh is the Taylor Swift of college football. Here’s how the leader of Michigan football is the T-Swift’s collegiate alter ego.

Jim Harbaugh has built quite the reputation for himself in both coaching circles and the football media. The former NFL quarterback has made stops as the head coach of San Diego, Stanford, the San Francisco 49ers, and is current head coach of the Michigan Wolverines.

Harbaugh has yet to win a championship and he’s left behind more than a few burned bridges along the way. He’s highly paid and finds his way into the ESPN talking head shows and blogs quite a bit thanks to his team trip to Rome, spring practices at IMG and his milk fascination. You might be asking what pop and country superstar Taylor Swift has to do with Jim Harbaugh- a lot.

Swift has managed to put out hit albums much the same as Harbaugh has put up winning seasons. Swift and Harbaugh have a curious reputation in the media and have done things to prove and disprove those gossipy rumors. Both are successful, famous and wealthy. Swift has left behind ex-lovers much like Harbaugh has left behind past employers spanning multiple regions and levels of entertainment or football accordingly.

Ms. Swift and Coach Harbaugh have more in common than you think.
