If Jim Harbaugh does decide to leave and return to the this coming offseason in the wake of the illegal advanced-scouting sign-stealing allegations that have engulfed the Wolverines' program, how much baggage would he actually be taking back to the pros?According to FOX Sports NFL insider , not much.Amid reports from early November that the NFL may honor any suspension that the NCAA levies on Harbaugh as a result of its investigation into Michigan's alleged sign stealing, NFL teams first told Glazer when asked that they wanted to learn more about the investigation before determining whether it would impact a potential pursuit of Harbaugh."But as the last couple weeks have gone on, that has just completely changed," Glazer reported live
