JMV shot back in the next segment he wondered if Harbaugh would really want to handle all the roster duties though. That's a lot of work. I think he will have input. But I think Reich had input too because Ballard would go out and find guys his coaches preferred. He didn't draft in a vacuum. Plus just coming from college I bet Harbaugh would have some valuable input. I don't think Ballard would be opposed to the coach having a say in the personnel matters.
Man I just don't know. Lots of speculation that Ballard was not on board with this Saturday thing to start, so has to feel somewhat usurped. So then Harbaugh comes in and starts casting swing votes on players, not sure how Ballard could stomach it.

At the end of the day I do hope it is Harbaugh and I hope he is given wide latitude to change this team into something entirely different than it is now which is a tragically flawed team with no one that seems to feel like they have the platform to demand a higher standard.
