Knew it was only a matter of time before Urban started copying the Steve Jobs of coaching Mr. James Joseph Harbaugh.

Speaking of a son of a bitch...

 

This is amusing because a month ago he said this...

I might pull an Urban Meyer next year and fake a heart attack when things aren't going well at work, and/or make sweet, sweet love to a few Florida undergrads...

on this issue, it's great to see some BIG followers on this issue: 

The more coaches who test the waters on extra-territorial Spring-break practices, the more difficult it will be for the NCAA to do anything about it.  The NCAA is a cabal of cowards, so the more schools that do this the better it is for M. 

Harbaugh has weathered the media storm, generated free PR for M during the offseason, and it looks like smooth sailing on the horizon.  For extra-territorial Spring-break practices, that is. 

Leaders and best.

I'm OK with this. The SEC got so butthurt over it that I kind of hope that all non-SEC schools start holding spring break practices down south. MSU having their spring break in Alabama's territory would be delicious.

Well, I can't say I am all that surprised - I think it was Warren Buffet that said, "First come the innovators, then come the imitators, then come the idiots." Pretty sure Meyer would probably be in the "imitator" category in this case, but if Harbaugh is the innovator here, you can only imagine which coaches would fall under "idiot". Wait, no, they coach in the Southeastern Conference, and they'd have to change their rules first.

Now I have to go home and make a "promise" to my wife to not cheat on her with grad students again, run away from work when it gets hard, or enable future serial killers.
