Report: Jim Harbaugh, 49ers to meet
Updated at 4:23 p.m.
Stanford Coach Jim Harbaugh is expected to meet today with the San Francisco 49ers according to an ESPN report.
Harbaugh and 49ers officials were expected to meet at an undisclosed location away from the team's facility. With Trent Baalke now in place as general manager, the team is addressing the head coaching vacancy created when Mike Singletary was fired.
The Niners reportedly have asked for permission to interview New York Giants defensive coordinator Perry Fewell and Oakland Raiders offensive coordinator Hue Jackson.
As for the Denver Broncos and Harbaugh, John Elway, the team's new executive vice-president of football operations, said he has a call into Harbaugh and hopes to gauge his interest in the job today. Elway said he told Harbaugh at the Orange Bowl that if he wants to jump to the NFL, the Broncos are interested.

Whither Singletary? He didn't do his resume any favors, did he? My guess is he becomes a community organizer. That seems to be the occupation of choice of the ne'er do well.
