Painful interview with Harbaugh on The Herd....

[Hammerhead]

Harbaugh sounds like he has been drinking or is just not paying attention to what Cowherd was saying.

Here is something else from Harbaugh, of course has since been deleted. Do we say he has less than four years at Michigan? If that?

That's a fake. Several people on other websites said that they follow Harbaugh, and never saw that tweet come up in their feed at the time that it says it was posted. The claims that it was deleted don't make any sense to me, because if it was up long enough for 45 favorites and 56 retweets, some of his followers would've been able to come forward and confirm that he actually posted it.

He couldn't have been serious with the "buy" vs. "bye" part...could he have been?

If you mean Harbaugh, honestly I'm with him on that one. I don't listen to Cowherd, so I don't know if he has some sort of "buy/sell" thing like one of the ESPN talk shows (I believe PTI used to do it) has or had, so I was confused by his phrasing there. Other than OSU winning the National Championship, I haven't heard too much buzz about the B1G being "the real deal".

Gotta disagree here. BUY (as opposed to SELL) is a term used in all kinds of contexts (mainly financials). The term is used enough and I would think a guy as smart as Harbaugh would be able to discern what was up.

See my above post. If you look at the fake one, you can see there is no blue verified symbol by his name like the embedded Harbaugh tweets in this thread.

Good catch guys! Sorry for posting the fake one, the thought did cross my mind that it was almost too crazy.

Interesting offseason to say the least.

There are people who are extremely good at what they do and are at the top of their game that seem to always have this attitude that they shouldn't be bothered with having to deal with the common folk. That's the feeling I always got from Bo and it's what I get from Jim in this interview.

I dont like Cowherd. I think he has some talent, but his ego and attitude makes me feel like he is above his profession.

That being said, Jim deserves a good chunk of the blame for this interview. Colin was trying to have a normal conversation and while his questions were pretty open ended, Jim gave him nothing. Jim doesnt have to sell the brand of Michigan, but it wouldnt hurt. Dont act like you are above this. You dont need to be Tim Miles but at least play along.

Cowherd cutting off the interview and insulting Jim didnt help the problem but at that point he was probably so annoyed with Jims inability to give him something, that it just wasnt worth the time.

Coach Harbaugh can talk with Bo Pelini if he wants to see what happens when you dont live up to expectations and are also an A-hole.

Winning can cure all problems.

Fixed it for you
