What does our suspended coach do?   He supports his players.  

Sign the contract extension!!

That’s not what I heard.   Traffic. Bad, so he walked, ran, and biked to the hospital.

While he was running, he essentially “jaywalked” as he crossed from one side of Observatory to the other.

It sounds like Petitti is evaluating whether “running to get there faster” - violates how Tony thinks of a level field - and he’s sure there are Sportsmanship implications.  

Thamel and Finebaum are advocating a full year suspension - because Harbaugh was with the team “in spirit” all day on Saturday.  This violated the “not being present at the venue” of the Petitti B1G ruling.

I think he lives in Burns Park area, so it's pretty close to the hospital. And, during the game, traffic in A2 is pretty light.  I'm sure he was on the phone with the team docs, so he knew what was going on and where to be. But, I think that looks like a post op wrap on the leg, not a pre op leg in an air cast, so maybe the clock is wrong?

Not the way we wanted Zak's last appearance in Maize and Blue to end, but he'll soon be part of the growing list of excellent M alums playing OL on Sunday!  Thanks Zak!! ... Now to win three more for the Z-man!

Imagine his inner thoughts knowing he was beaten despite Harbaugh not being present. 

Interesting stat

Michigan has punted the ball once in the second half of the last three Michigan-Ohio State games combined.

Once.

2021:
- TD
- TD
- TD
- TD
- victory formation
2022:
- TD
- punt
- TD
- missed FG
- TD
- TD
- victory formation
2023:
- FG
- TD
- FG
- FG
- victory formation

Gosh I love Harbaugh 

 

can we do an 8 year $100m contract now and have Ono and Jim to a huge presser about it just to piss off more people?

Jim Harbaugh oozes leadership out of every pore of his body.  

 

It's imperative that he is kept at the helm of Michigan Football until the day he retires from coaching.

Please make it happen by Christmas, Santa (and Warde)!

Not only does he lead the young men whose development he is charged with, he mentors young coaches for their success in the future. You’ll see that when his current crop are all head coaches. It will also not be lost on the next generation of coaching superstars that Michigan is the place to be for development and visibility. 
 

No wonder the other coaches in the B1G want to chase him to the NFL. To Hell with them.

None of this is surprising. It’s who he is and why every player on the team would give every last breath they have to never give up on the field for the guy. Leaders lead, and Harbaugh is a true leader, coach and friend!
