John Harbaugh's week

We did our analysis of time distribution of our typical week, well here's another perspective. ESPN had an article on John Harbaugh's approach to his job. It has a week outlined so I did the same process with the same groupings as I did for my time:


Some notes:

1. If you ever wondered why college and pro coaches make so much money here is your answer.

2. I was flexible in the characterization of family time. Daily calls with his daughter were placed under family time as was 1.5 hours spent watching game film with his Dad. Not exactly what I think of as family time but okay.

3. I also put phone calls with other coaches and NFLers outside his time in the "social" bucket.

Bottom line: this guy eats and sleeps the NFL quite literally. Is the $5M salary worth committing 85% of waking hours to your job? I can't pretend to be able to answer that question.
