    what part was incorrect?

    I do remember when Meyer did those things. But this thread isn't about him. It's about harbutt

    Harbaugh didn't quit his past teams, for starters.

    Unless you call getting promoted as quitting. In which case, you're saying Meyer quit on multiple past teams as well. So let's hear you say that Meyer is also a quitter.... I know you (and many others) have a hard time talking Michigan/OSU without crippling bias, but just try to see the point you're making here. Just step back, and see what you're arguing.

    why is it that every time I come to this forum every post I read from you,you are either having to back track or defend your back tracking

    I'd be absolutely shocked if Harbaugh left Michigan just when it looks like the program is making a comeback. Shocked. I don't like the guy as is but I'd lose all respect for him if he did that. I don't see it.

    Because you have reading comprehension issues?

    Way to use your brain Cysko. Let's hope some of your peers can too

  • So, Woody, if you lose Harbaugh to the Rams will Michigan bring back Brady Hoke?

    While I agree that it is beyond comprehension that Harbaugh would leave Michigan at this point, you still never know with him. It may be a distant fire, but there still seems to be some smoke f rom that distant fire.

  • He's not going anywhere...

    If you did any research on the source of these rumors, you'd know there is nothing to them.

    You are obtuse. There is no "kind of research" that can be done on these rumors. That is why they are rumors. (besides...how do you know there is nothing to them. You don't... no more than I do. You don't believe them. I don't believe them...but there is NOTHING definitive to say about them until Harbaugh makes a statement. And even then, take it with a grain of salt. Remember Saban? "I'm not going to Alabama". Sure.

  • Do you think it's dead yet?

  • Tressel has a record of 20-5? That's cute. Meyer has a record with OSU of 61-5

    I don't think Meyer is afraid enough of him to start little girly rumors. But I'm 100% sure I know who he meant when he said "our enemies"

    Tressel at OHIO STATE and BIG TEN: Ohio State: 94-22 (106-22) 59-14 (66-4)

    Career: Overall 229-79-2

    Versus m: 9-1 😉

  • Tressel?

    When it comes to recruiting, I would expect it fr most schools in an attempt to get top recruits. Again, it's not coincidence this started right before the dead period

    Yes, there is. Two things to look at. 1) Is it realistic? 2) What is the source?

    1) This has already been covered in the thread

    2) This is the one I was referring to as far as research goes. Find out where this rumor started. How legitimate is that source? This rumor started when Cowherd relayed a second hand comment from a reporter saying that Harbaugh to the Rams was a "very real possibility". (The reporter being an OSU alum). That same reporter then clarified his statement on twitter and tried to calm the flames, but people were already running with it.

    "Harbaugh to the NFL" will pop up every offseason, because it generates views.

    ok? I'm generally lost on why this matters in this conversation...

    ... plus, it was one down year because Fickell was a bad coach. It's not like OSU had fallen off. If you're trying to equate it to Harbaugh's situation (or Hoke or RRod), it isn't the same.

  • Who's problem is it that Michigan, who is by anyone's estimation a top tier program, failed for years. It's not OSU's problem. We apparently didn't have any problem finding great coaches.

    The record matters because you're trying to insinuate that Meyer just took overthe dynamite talent that tressel had amassed. If that were the truth pure talent would have carried them to, at the very least, a mediocre but winning record.

    I don't think it is realistic...this time around.

    There is no research needed to find a "single source" for where the Harbaugh to the Pros rumor started. The source is with Harbaugh himself. He, unlike Saban, had great success in the Pros.....so every time there is a vacancy in the coaching ranks of the NFL his name is going to be mentioned as a possible replacement. It starts with fans/media saying "we need a new coach...hey, Harbaugh was good, why not think about him" It is not one person like Cowherd, and it certainly didn't start with OSU....though certainly OSU...and others (more likely Michigan St....who is really a greater recruiting rival than OSU of UM) may take advantage of the rumors. The rumor started with everyone. The minute he left the pro rank there were rumors he could go back if the situation is right.

    If you try to assess this rumor to a single source....then you are as I said: obtuse.
