John Harbaugh breaks a little news
https://twitter.com/MorganAdsit/status/1724538849597051072?t=1xZoTzkWa1…
John Harbaugh is asked about Jim's situation and casually drops that everything has been gone through, including Jim's phone and computer and he's come through with flying colors.
Not surprising of course but it would seem to confirm that M is truly cooperating on that front.

John Harbaugh dropping a nugget of information. Scripted or not, I love it.
November 14th, 2023 at 5:37 PM ^
Scripted in what way?
November 14th, 2023 at 5:41 PM ^
I presume he meant since Jim is unable to comment publicly while being investigated, this could have been a way to circumvent that.
November 14th, 2023 at 9:00 PM ^
FIFY: Bet. :)
November 14th, 2023 at 6:21 PM ^
Circumvent you say? This could be grounds for another investigation...
November 14th, 2023 at 8:14 PM ^
Intent to deceive?
November 14th, 2023 at 8:48 PM ^
'Intent to over-inform', I believe would be the violation here...
November 14th, 2023 at 7:56 PM ^
Possibly, but scripted can also suggest the comment was embellished or even fabricated.
November 14th, 2023 at 5:43 PM ^
Just wonder if it was discussed beforehand. Maybe a little leak from a source not directly involved in the investigation. Probably not.🤷🏻♂️
November 14th, 2023 at 5:32 PM ^
Jim has had to backtrack on chicken however.
November 14th, 2023 at 5:39 PM ^
Was there an advanced weather app on Harbaugh’s phone?
This will be interesting to see / follow.
In Harbaugh I trust.
November 14th, 2023 at 5:56 PM ^
Or how many pictures of Judge Judy they found?
November 14th, 2023 at 5:41 PM ^
He's developing a new Calm breed.
November 14th, 2023 at 5:50 PM ^
That should be at least a 2 game suspension.
-The B1G
November 14th, 2023 at 6:39 PM ^
Knowing The B1G, they are going to reduce Jim’s suspension to 1 game, call off the need for Friday’s court proceedings, and leave that stain on his reputation.
November 14th, 2023 at 6:02 PM ^

Interesting question there at the end. Never even considered the possibility that they could watch the game together (at John's house in Baltimore?) if Jim is still suspended.
November 14th, 2023 at 5:41 PM ^
Thank you for embedding.
November 14th, 2023 at 5:48 PM ^
John is so relaxed during interviews
November 14th, 2023 at 6:35 PM ^
I'm not sure I can recall ever seeing him look really upset. Maybe on the sidelines, a little bit. He just doesn't seem to get flustered at all. Seems to be very even keeled.
November 14th, 2023 at 7:03 PM ^
I’ve seen it once… I can’t quite recall the situation but he was 😡🤬
November 15th, 2023 at 10:18 AM ^
When your little brother is a jackhammer, you get used to shrugging off little things and remaining calm.
November 14th, 2023 at 7:02 PM ^
That is totally really and unscripted imho. Nuggets of real info too. Thank you for posting this.
November 14th, 2023 at 11:08 PM ^
Bet the NCAA has never taken a computer with Judge Judy wallpaper before...
November 14th, 2023 at 5:43 PM ^
I think Michigan-adjacent "news" outlets should start posting rumored and completely false rules violations by rival and SEC teams AND should adamantly and universally assert that Tony Pettiti is a sex pest citing this post as an unnamed source.
Just keep making claims until something sticks. And if nothing sticks, demand punishment.
November 14th, 2023 at 5:51 PM ^
That conflicts with the freep and detroit news ability to be "concerned" with all this.
They aren't gonna do shit because they are all lazy.
November 14th, 2023 at 5:53 PM ^
Am I crazy or did Michigan get more backlash for unsubstantiated gamesmanship rules violations than Penn State got for a coach literally fucking kids?
November 14th, 2023 at 5:56 PM ^
So, like, they did make their coach of like 38 years or sometime immediately retire within a couple weeks... not to mention the $$$ they paid in lawsuits... soooo...
November 14th, 2023 at 8:10 PM ^
Joe Pa was like 942 years old when he "retired". Well past the time PSU should have gotten rid of him anyway.
November 14th, 2023 at 6:21 PM ^
No, they got a ton of backlash, and the NCAA leader (Mark Emmert) also pulled a Petitti, going off script, but with stronger punishments.
November 14th, 2023 at 7:51 PM ^
Yeah if we care about the rule of law we should be totally against what the NCAA did to Penn St. That was some pitch fork stuff. You dont enforce fair play but then also step into the field of policing horrific SA crimes. That was another mob moment where, extremely unpopular of me at the time, I had to ask "what the fuck are you doing?"
November 14th, 2023 at 9:23 PM ^
Mob rule will always trump unless called to account by the rule of law. Say something enough and eventually facts don't matter. That is close to where this is going. People that don't like Michigan want to believe this is true. ESPN and the like will gladly keep feeding the masses that have zero want or ability to ascertain the truth because they want to believe that JH is a cheating scumbag, they already knew it and this just "proves" it.
Once you are in a post truth environment nothing matters. It is all bias and mob rule. That is what Tony has invited.
November 14th, 2023 at 7:59 PM ^
Yeah. No.
I've been spending WAY too much time arguing with people online about all of this. You want to take the high ground.
What would be cool is:
1. Finding out who hired the PI firm.
2. Finding out who hacked into CS' files.
3. Finding out who leaked all of the information to the press drip by drip.
4. Releasing evidence of other coaches sharing information. Establish that it is the same level of harm or worse. (think about the players saftey!) Put in rules against that (assuming it helps us more than hurts us.)
5. Get Pettiti fired for incompetence. Seriously though. What a shit show.
6. Get public apologies for all of that crap.
7. Make sure Ryan Day stays at OSU no matter how much of that stuff he is "known" to have connections to. I'm all for softee staying on.
November 14th, 2023 at 8:23 PM ^
Cyan Day? Yup, he can stay at OSU forever.
November 14th, 2023 at 5:58 PM ^

Am I doing this right? I'm new at this journalism thing.
November 14th, 2023 at 6:00 PM ^
Dynamite scoop, kid. You're hired.
November 14th, 2023 at 6:08 PM ^
It was only a gain of several million - after he held it for a few months.
So, in a down real estate market, he was able to earn a major windfall in a matter of months.
There has to be a section in the B1G By-Laws about bribery.. isn’t there?
November 14th, 2023 at 7:41 PM ^
You may have left out the part where he uses Ouija boards to pick his dating friends on Facebook.
November 14th, 2023 at 7:47 PM ^
Ive seen your political work recently. Dont much care for it.
November 14th, 2023 at 5:44 PM ^
Coach is not only Mr. Football, he's also an honest guy and I'm happy that he's ours. Oh, by the way? 10-0 and ranked #2.
That is all.
November 14th, 2023 at 5:57 PM ^
You mean 7-3 and first in his division? I mean... you could say that about John too.
November 14th, 2023 at 6:37 PM ^
True. The entire family seems like "good people".
November 14th, 2023 at 8:03 PM ^
Guy eats and apple and does some pushups to ward off a cold.
November 14th, 2023 at 8:04 PM ^
Thank god we have team doctors, Herbert and nutritionists for the football team.
November 14th, 2023 at 5:45 PM ^
Some clowns on Xitter were claiming earlier today that the NCAA was “offering immunity” to Michigan players in return for their testimony about in-person scouting.
November 14th, 2023 at 5:59 PM ^
Last night and today I saw lots of crap on Xwitter as well but everything I saw says it's about UM players and coaches gambling. Some have gone as far to say that during MacDonald's tenure, UM was impossibly good ATS. Insane.
November 14th, 2023 at 6:03 PM ^
I guess defamation isn't a thing anymore, if it ever was.
