TL;DR

John O'Korn liked a tweet by Jemele Hill bashing Harbaugh. When called out for it, John O'Korn responded with "It's not the program or the school that we don't like", implying that he either does not like Harbaugh or he does not like the fan base. Given the context, this seems to be referring to Harbaugh.

Totally understand JOK's feelings here.  I'm sure he was under strict instructions from Harbaugh in the OSU game to fuck up reads, miss wide open receivers and generally piss the game away that the other 89 guys worked so hard to win.

Who wouldn't be upset if given such a command from their coach?

Thank you for summarizing! I was looking at both events separately and I was wondering how people didn't think he was referring to the fans, now I totally get it and I am disappointed.

That is just so sad that he would actually say that about one of the only people associated with this university that had his back through and through. The Amazon series was even more revealing of that.

JOK just tweeted that he was NOT referring to Harbaugh. I would assume that he was referring to those among the fan base that continually bashed a backup QB doing the best he could with what he had to work with - and/or those who believe that they know more about football than Jim Harbaugh.        https://twitter.com/JohnOKorn/status/1024123373725642752In Jim We Trust.jpg

Again, this feels like a lot to do about nothing, but it seemed like he was calling out the fans who called former players hoes for "turning their back" or whatever on the program.

Maybe he doesn't like Harbaugh; I have no idea.  Why it matters anymore is beyond me, but I guess it's the end of July and people gotta fill time on their radio show and why the heck not freak out about a Twitter message from a former player.
