Rome said Harbaugh is just as “miserable” as he was in San Francisco.

“If anybody thought this was going to be a kinder, gentler Harbaugh since he went home to Ann Arbor to rescue the football program, make no mistake, it’s the same exact guy,” Rome said. “Nothing’s changed. Same guy. Same insanely intense dude that got run from Frisco, because he was miserable. He runs way too hot and he was wearing people out. Don’t get it twisted now. Great coach. Unbelievable coach. I’m sure he’ll do a great job there, but when you have a coach who wins as he wins and nobody is ever sorry to see him leave, that tells you a little something about that guy.”

Harbaugh won’t finish his career at Michigan, Rome said.

“So with that 10-win season in the rear view, God help anybody who asks him who his starting quarterback is going to be,” Rome said. “Or how come he can’t beat Urban Meyer, or when he’s going to beat Urban Meyer, or why he pulled a scholarship from a recruit. Good luck with any of that.

“Michigan fan will love this guy for winning. They’ll love him even more if he gets around to beating Michigan State, and even more than that, if he can finally find a way to get over Ohio State. But anybody who thinks Harbaugh is wired to grow old in that job is kidding themselves. Enjoy it while it lasts, because even though it’s his alma mater, it probably won’t. This cat runs way too hot. If he can’t get through an August press session, media session when they’re asking him about guys that are not in a team photo, this guy’s not going to last long.”

I wonder if Angelique addressed the issue of Harbaugh not really answering a basic question that a reporter or two asked (about player suspensions)? Seems like as a member of the press (covering that team), that she would be interested in that.

What's even beyond that is we have a coach at a major university tweeting he'd beat up Jim Rome. Think about that? The implication of beating up a journalist.

The fuck? Why isn't that a bigger story?

He is the Trump of NCAA DI football coaches.

The Evolution of OTPT is almost complete. He's taking snippets of Bob and The Dude's mantra.

He's essentially becoming a sheep.

Great analogy.

Harbaugh has absolutely nothing to gain by engaging Rome in a twitter war. If Dantonio did this, I'd be pretty pissed. Harbaraugh needs to take his medicine and drink a cup of STFU. Much different scenario than Dantonio hanging up on those assholes for asking questions about spaghetti with Izzo.

I wonder how much prep time he will give up for his Twitter war? Maybe he should spend more time on punting drills and less time on Twitter.

Rome won by getting Harbaugh to acknowledge him. Harbaugh just comes off looking petty by trying to establish some sort of alpha domination over the press (local and national).

It's what journalists and radio shows do. The more you get a reaction, the better for you. Jim Harbaugh will be an easy target.

Can we just rename this thread all things Harbaugh?

Thanks

Harbs and Rome have a long history. Harbaugh for some reason actually was a contestant in the smack off back 15 years ago or so. Didn't have much of a showing, but the two were obviously on pretty good terms.

I hope this twitter war goes on forever. I can't believe he has the confidence of a 18 y/o girl and has to respond to Rome's schtick. Awesome.

I didn't say I wanted it to stop. I hope there are many more twitter wars between Harbaugh and the media. He's just a moran for doing it.

Welcome to tSwill, by the way.

Welcome to the swill DantIzzoNio!

This coach wears blue and yellow ours wears green and white so he can do things the other can't!

Also, dantizzonio, there will be four posters who yell at you in a sarcastic way if you bring up anything Michigan. I'll let you figure out who they are, but they run around playing whack a mole trying to get you to stop because it bothers them. It's become fun to push their buttons even as they scream for #freespeech.

I'll start a thread after a while to flush them out for you.

I'll take your word for it. You seem to be really plugged in as to whst constitutes winning a troll war.

Geez...you're not the brightest guy, are you?

You said Valenti makes outrageous comments to get people to listen. This is pretty much the same thing, right? Rome "wins" by getting Harbaugh to respond to him, thus gaining more attention for himself.

But, your angle is that you don't want ANYONE to think that Harbaugh "lost"...thus (further) exposing your love for Harbaugh and all things Michigan.

Too easy.

I was not trying to be funny. It was a serious question.

Ha. Rome seems to be doing a fake/sarcastic thing where there is an 'elephant in the room' that everyone wants him to address and pretending it's other random shit. Emailers playing along.

Was Rome making outrageous comments, or was he just being correct in saying Harbs is a jackass that has rubbed people the wrong way pretty much wherever he's been?

Harbaugh wanting to go to war with Rome?

Not the best move.

That was a setup. A test. I gave you an easy and obvious line and you took the bait. Sorry, Mr. Predictable, but you lose! You get nothing! Good day, sir!

It's a little late for you to backtrack. Try to think these things through next time. Your schtick is unraveling at a record pace now.

The Truth will set you free. You have about 16 days left. Use it wisely.
