This is just another tree to climb or go cart to race. Harbaugh is trying too hard to be liked and sound cool. This is a common mistake made by weak leaders.

Thanks for the update, Earle.

I say go ahead - call it the Harbaugh Rule. Let Jim have one. There are enough "Saban Rules" related to recruiting. :wink:

If Harbaugh loses 3+ games again next year, it's gonna just be too funny after all this.

His Najee loss to Saban is funny enough, though.

Maybe he's just one of those guys who can't get all the way on top of the hill....Chicago Bears, Stanford, 49ers, Michigan. He is damn good at what he does though.

He will....he just lost his entire defense.

When I saw this, I honestly thought it was some kind of joke. The funny thing is, I remember months ago (maybe a year ago) posting that maybe he'd have Michigan Spring Game in French Polynesia or someplace exotic like that. Well, apparently I wasn't too far off. I fully expect the NCAA to put the Kibosh on this kind of thing soon. He may get away with it this time but I doubt he'll be able to do it again.

Harbaugh is probably going to Rome to ask the Pope to intervene on his behalf for a victory over Ohio state.

Scroll up and read my link. This is the last hurrah for this sort of shenanigan...

Again, my take is the guy is trying to create more value for his program and I think it is a classic case of thinking outside the box. I does reek of "gimmickry" but the guy is trying to innovate which I respect. He has turned the Wolverine program around in recruiting and in the win column but I feel it is a make or break year for him in 2017-18 and maybe that is why he is trying so hard. If he does not take out Meyer and Franklin or make it to the playoff somehow I feel he will jump back into the pros.

I feel that he's always been a NFL guy. He left the 49ers because they made life just frustrating enough to move back to college. I think he'd rather win the Super Bowl more than win the golden muffler.
