Adam Schefter of ESPN is reporting that San Francisco head coach Jim Harbaugh has narrowed his post-49ers coaching options to two choices. It will be between the University of Michigan and the Oakland Raiders.
Schefter believes that Harbaugh is leaning heavily toward the University of Michigan to replace Brady Hoke in Ann Arbor.
Jay Glazer of FOX Sports reported Sunday that Harbaugh and the 49ers would part ways within 24 to 48 hours of the team's final game against the Arizona Cardinals. That game will be on Sunday, December 28th.
There had been rumors that the New York Jets, and perhaps even the Chicago Bears, might show some interest in Harbaugh.
Harbaugh has been the head coach of the 49ers since 2011. He led the team to three straight NFC Championship games and a Super Bowl in his first three seasons with San Francisco.

49ers insider offers analysis from glimpse of Trey Lance and Sam Darnold
It's premature to draw conclusions about a quarterback based on practices in May. That is especially true when you do so based on one practice. The San Francisco 49ers started organized team activities (OTAs) this week, and all eyes were on Trey Lance and Sam Darnold.
The two players are battling for that QB2 job behind last season's rookie sensation, Brock Purdy. One could even start Week 1 if Purdy is not healthy enough to do so himself.
Lance is coming off a season-ending ankle injury but looks completely healthy now. Darnold is trying to turn his career around after never living up to his high draft status.
Matt Barrows of The Athletic was on hand for Tuesday's practice, the only one open to reporters so far, and one that Barrows describes as a
Is 49ers QB Trey Lance getting better? And is it because of his new teacher? One expert shares his thoughts
Sometimes who is teaching is as important as what is being taught
Earlier this week, when the San Francisco 49ers opened up an OTAs session to the media, most of the eyes, in person and online, were on third-year quarterback Trey Lance's new delivery. Lance, of course, had been working with QB guru, Jeff Christensen, and thanks to some leaked footage of Lance throwing with Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, along with a very well-timed piece by Matt Barrows in The Athletic, there was plenty of
