Two former San Francisco 49ers reunited Tuesday when Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh and Indianapolis Colts running back Frank Gore shared a photo together.
The hard-nosed Gore became one of Harbaugh's favorite players during his four seasons as 49ers head coach. The feeling was mutual, with Gore stating "He's my best coach," when asked about the controversial Harbaugh.
Had to check on my guy, one of Football's All Time Greats! Love my players. #frankthetank pic.twitter.com/WtH8gTN2su

Both moved on from the 49ers in 2015 following a tumultuous 8-8 season. Bay Area fans likely wish they were still with the team after a frustrating 5-11 season in which the 49ers finished 21st in rushing.
