Per beat writer Matt Maiocco: Baalke's interview lasted nine months

If York promotes Baalke to the position of general manager, it is bound to be met with a lot of skepticism. But there is a firm belief among NFL insiders -- and some folks at Stanford -- that Baalke will be able to deliver Jim Harbaugh to be the 49ers' head coach.

Sports Illustrated's Peter King reported Baalke was in Florida to seek advice from Bill Parcells. Baalke worked for Parcells while with the New York Jets. Harbaugh and his Stanford team will play Monday in the Orange Bowl.

If Baalke is named general manager Sunday or Monday, he can get to work immediately after the Orange Bowl to lure Harbaugh to the 49ers. King also reported that Jon Gruden is out of the picture as a 49ers coaching candidate.

York and the 49ers could move quickly to put together the key pieces of the organization at the beginning of what promises to be a tumultuous offseason because of the league's labor uncertain labor situation.

ya thats alarming but gantt responded to a tweet asking him if he was in vegas putting money on it he said Harbaugh will get the chance to say no to us.

Anticaption is getting old

Saw that. People misunderstood, thinking he meant that harbaugh wouldn't want the job.

No idea how it's going to play out, but after the Orange Bowl, I expect people to be on the edge of their seats till something's known.

(and then if that gets resolved quickly, right back on edge till the 15th)

If Harbaugh ends up with the 49ers, what are the chances he gets a trade with Carolina for the number one pick? I've been on the niners board, and they've been offering some pretty lame trade offers for a guy of Luck's potential. If the FO is stupid enough to trade Luck for anything less than a boat load of picks for the next two possibly three years and two established players (star and a good player), I don't know what I would do.

I wouldn't take anything less than a ridiculous offer.

What the team might take? Hopefully not anything less than a ridiculous offer, but who knows :sosp:

      Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways.

      Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season.

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
