Uh, this is kind of a big move.  It's frankly unprecedented in all of college football.  And it's a brilliant move too.  Puts it right back on all the coaches complaining and puts the NCAA in a bind too, lest they in a publically way really come out and say, "nah, screw the student athletes and something that helps them".  Also, it really is setting the bar for Harbaugh and his additude that UM won't back down from anything.  Inviting any coach that wants to come to your own camp?  That's a pretty big thing I would say.

I don't know that I would summarily include Derek Mason in Bolivia only because Vanderbilt needs some hope and they've historically not done much (or been able to do much) to hurt anyone from a football standpoint. Still, they are in the SEC, so point taken in that regard - if the Oversigh Committee makes future camps a non-starter because such inequities offend the SEC, then yeah, that whole conference can take a long walk off a short pier.

No need to trip those (Vanderbilt), who only seem to trip themselves. It's just astonishing to me for two reasons: 1) The SEC coaches are acutally ticked off about this, I understand why, I'm just choosing to see it as a lack of confidence in their own skill set. 2) The NCAA Oversight Committee has pushed this "hot button" topic to the top of the heap. Because THIS is the problem..... SMH!

Even if then ncaa closes the loophole on the satellite camps then we are still on the cutting edge of using our resources to our advantage. I would imagine there are already college coaches lined up with harbaugh connections to come to this camp and it leaves the door open for the poor sec coaches with a limitation to come as a keynote speaker.

Would any possible rule change about camps be subject to a vote by all of the D-I schools? I wonder if some smaller schools would like to get in on these camps. That'd be a great way to swing their votes. It's not like Marshall is going to headline their own camps around the country.

I want Harbaugh to succeed as a the head coach here for the obvious reason of loving Michigan football. But now I want him to succeed even more becasue this has been such a great few months with him as coach because he just does not care about what anyone thinks about him and it is amazing.
