All of this talk about Harbaugh got me to thinking about the recent history of Michigan's football program. As we all know too well, the Rose Bowl is the be-all and end-all for the BIG. Well, as it turns out, Michigan last won the Rose Bowl on January 1, 1998, and they last PLAYED in the Rose Bowl on January 1, 2007. Unbelievable!

That is a long, long time ago. Michigan is desperate, and they don't mind embarrassing themselves by using desperate recruiting measures.

I'll add another fun fact about Michigan....they have only won 1 national title since 1949! In that same 1997 season you mention above. Crazy when you step back and think about that for a second. In addition, they have only had one undefeated/untied season since 1949...also in 1997. They went 10-0-1 in 1973 and 9-0-3 in 1992....so they really can't even claim their undefeated seasons were not rewarded with titles....like say PSU with undefeated/untied seasons in 1968, 1969, 1973, and 1994.

Sorry, but as a fan who follows the program closely I can say there isn't a UM fan that is desperate. We all know we have one of the very best coaches at the helm who is recruiting lights out. I couldn't be more excited and comfortable with our future. From my perspective, I think many of our rivals know JH is going to accomplish great things at UM and they'll use anything to try and tear us down. Our future is pretty exciting.

Don't really see this as trying to year you down. Harby has been doing a great job recruiting and had a good season - I think he is going overboard with Nordin. A PSU commit. Don't be so sensitive to what is said on another teams message board - good thing you aren't a PSU fan visiting the liar - now those are some twisted folks that really are mentally disturbed when it comes to a team that is also in their state.

For the next 2 years till he leaves...

Yea, it's your rivals that are making Harbaugh act like a crass, unprofessional and embarrassing representative of the University of Michigan. Mmmmhhhmmm, whatever you say "me_$hit_again Man". Interesting viewpoint, some would claim a biased, pragmatic, excuse-anything approach, but you scUM b1g types have already explained to us that you, among all others, are perfectly "unbiased"....LMFAO.
 
I guess... He then will never accomplish what his brother has...a SB ring...

Seeing as how competitive the Harbaughs are... Bet that never comes up over a few beers...

Just yanking your chain BTW...
In all honestly, I think John will be more jealous of Jim after he wins a NC at UM. :)

Good work bushy on the mature front. Troll. Yup I called you a troll cause I'm using your criteria of the word troll. Someone who doesn't agree with Bushwood.

At Christmas dinner, I'm sure John wears his ring and says something like, "Hey, brother. Where's yours? Loser."

Yea, I'm trolling the PSU board genius. You scUM douche-bags are really some form of special hypocrite -- now you'd have no problem if it was a PSU Coach pulling this crass, unprofessional and embarrassing behavior on a scUM VC and a PSU fan was ridiculously and shamelessly defending and justifying the crass, ridiculous behavior on the scUM board. Whatever you say "me_$hit_again Man".

Very mature. Almost made me cry.
 
Talk about embarrassing...

Yes, you "excuse-anything" as long as it is being done by scUM's "me_$hit_again Man" Coach is quite embarrassing - you're correct, but that hasn't kept you from posting your trash on a board dedicated to the team and fans of the school the prospect is Verbally Committed to, does it? Some douche-bags are just shameless hypocrites in their defense of crass behavior, no doubt.

No, defending and rationalizing the crass behavior of a middle-aged coach who says they want to show up at a kid's parents' home at midnight on a weekday and sleepover in his bedroom simply because he is the coach of your favorite team is truly "very mature behavior". You douche-bag hypocrite "me_$hit_again Men" are really amusing little pukes.

I've met soooo many PSU fans including my wife. I have never met a bad one. That's how I know you are a fraud and a troll. Keep up your good work Bushwood. Wait you denied being Bushwood at first but now you own it so I can respect that at least.

It is a half of a title- they had to share it with Nebraska.

You excusing and rationalizing Harbaugh's crass, unprofessional and embarrassing behavior on a PSU Board (where the prospect is Verbally Committed) simply because Harbaugh is scUM's coach identifies you as a hypocrite troll on a PSU Board @sshole. BTW, didn't I already tell you I couldn't give a rat's @ss what you "think" and why a clear hypocrite, douche "me_$hit_again man" troll such as yourself thinks they're the arbiter on this board is rather baffling, but not surprising behavior from an arrogant-without-cause douche me_sh!t_again Man.

The only thing I own is telling you what an arrogant, hypocritical, douche-bag prick you are - have no idea if anyone else has pointed it out to you, but it wouldn't surprise me if many have, given that is precisely what you are "me_$hit_again man".

To answer your very mature post I happen to think the whole spending the night thing is odd and should not take place. Let me quote a very smart poster in this board named Franklin restores and say "it's not like anything someone posts on a message board is going to change anything". Now stop trying to act like you have the best interest of PSU in your posts. It's getting out of hand. It's obvious you are Bushwood and a troll that is embarrassing to all good PSU people.

Great, well you'll be happy to learn that Harbaugh has apparently schedule more of these "sleepovers" prior to LOI day.....you should be so proud!

It's a good thing all Michigan fans have chosen Go M&B here to speak for them all.

Yet you blow a gasket every time he posts. It's evident you care quite a bit.

The original "me shit again man" is Paterno.

Dude, penn state last won the rose bowl in 1994, so this isn't the best choice of criticism

I notice that you are quick to argue with Penn Staters and attack Penn State, usually missing the point of the discussion in the process. Sorry, but I am not about to explain it to you this time. Figure it out for yourself.

Your misguided "look in the mirror" posts are tiring.
