UM will be a force with Harbaugh.

He's one of the best, pros or college.

Yup, more suited for the college gane and it's players who listen and follow. The match ups with Ohio St in the near future will be epic

I think Michigan will contend for national titles within three years.

Perfect hire for the the Wolverines. Urban Meyer vs Jim Harbaugh. Wow.

Salty,

Harbaugh, may not be playing for the national title quite that fast, but you never know. For sure if you give him five to six years to recruit its a done deal. I expect to see the Wolverines ranked #1 in the nation sometime during his tenure and maybe even multiple times.

JH is a grade "A" asshole and not a nice guy to work for, or coach against, but that dude is a serious winner as a football coach. He is the freaking Alpha dog in his camp and everyone that plays for him and works for him knows it.

This guy will have 5 ***** All Americans lined up outside his office hoping to get an offer and play for him. He'll have his pick of top flight talent from day one.

This guy could go to tumble weed high school in Siberia and win a national championship.

Some people just have it, and he is one of those that has it. He will freaking own the Big 10 if he stays long enough to put together five or six recruiting classes

49ers are making a huge mistake letting Harbaugh go.

He may be unpleasant, but he was better than the Singletary days.

Harbaugh is most likely going to be a massive force there at UM. I think SB nation did an analysis of their roster and he will be walking into a situation with something like 50 four and five star players (like 12+ of those kind of players per class) already on the roster.

That would be just stupid on the 49ers part, but hey (!) they ran off a wildly successful Harbaugh, so who knows.

The Yorks are idiots.

The Santa Clara stadium and JH firing is so telling of their competence. And I really don't even like the niners that much.

Hopefully the new coach will push for trading Kaep.

RR on the Harbaugh hiring:

http://www.azdesertswarm.com/football/2 ... z-comments

"I didn't hear that. Really? What's he getting paid? Gosh, you just caught me off-guard there. I didn't think I'd get a Michigan question. I'm happy for Jim. And Michigan has great support without question. They've got tremendous fan support, great resources, and it looks like that's why they targeted Jim from day one, and they're probably thrilled that he's coming back. I don't know him, but I know he wins. He had great success there as a player. He's had great success as a coach too, and I'm sure they're excited"

It would be very interesting. Mora was at Seattle before Carroll. He's done a good job at UCLA. Now Harbaugh goes to UM.

What happens if UCLA job opens? I'm hoping we're safe no matter what for now. I like the fit with our coach right now.

Several outlets are saying he's interview in New York tomorrow.

This is where damage control is in order for Dan Guerrero. Get ahead of the game and kill these Mora rumors if they're truly false. Otherwise this drags on allowing other coaches to smear him on the recruiting trail or we end up finding out Mora was only the 5th option for the 9ers. Probably should make a formal statement regarding the basketball program too.

There is no eye roll emoticon dramatic enough to respond to this. The news that Jim Mora was not interviewing with the Jets after all was not broken by BRO. It was reported by Jason La Canfora, an entire hour before BRO's tweet to which you are referring.
Bashing a UCLA beat writer just because you hate UCLA. Thought you had matured beyond that by now. BRO is FAR from a propaganda wing of UCLA--it is often UCLA's harshest critic.

Great hire by LSU at the Defensive Line. I would expect only Alabama will be able to match the job LSU will now do in recruiting and developing top shelf talent into future NFL DL.

2000 lbs is probably the weight of the block it was carved from.

911 kg is just a hair over 2000 lbs and a cubed meter is roughly the volume of a 2ft x 2ft x 6ft box.
