Description: Live from the Giants fieldhouse, the scene is set with hundreds in attendance, current players in the building, and the room going silent as the organization prepares to introduce its next head coach. The guys play a quick prediction game on what Harbaugh will cite first for taking the job, then the moment arrives as Joe Schoen steps to the podium and officially introduces John Harbaugh as the new head coach of the New York Football Giants. Harbaugh’s opening remarks hit hard. He makes it clear he wanted the job, embraces the expectations of New York, and lays out a foundation built on toughness, physical football, discipline, and finishing. He emphasizes “team” repeatedly, thanks ownership, and brings the room into his mindset with a message about attacking every day with “enthusiasm unknown to mankind.” In the Q&A, Harbaugh addresses why he didn’t take time off, what he likes about the roster, and why he’s excited to work with Jaxson Dart. He talks staff building starting immediately, explains what “culture” means in football terms, and even nods to Andy Reid’s advice that “change can be good.” The press conference closes with Harbaugh reinforcing that success starts with how the Giants work every day and how they choose to play on tape.
