Jim Harbaugh answers little boy’s question about drinking milk

In the same press conference that Harbaugh informed the media he didn’t plan to talk to them much during fall camp, he answered randomly spaced questions from young children.

Simply put, that is the only way to describe the successful, but polarizing coach of the Michigan Wolverines football team. “I really believe that it will be fair, and I’m excited to watch it”.

After all, it was Brady’s father, Jason Carpenter, who came up with the question after viewing Harbaugh’s appearance on Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel in April.

While winning a Big Ten championship might be his chief goal, Michigan fans won’t be satisfied until the Wolverines beat the Buckeyes on a somewhat regular basis.

“Seeing them in the same school I went to, might have been the best moment of being back in Ann Arbor”, he said.

Whether dissing an ESPN anchor or coaching first base for the Oakland A’s in spring training, Harbaugh has done it his way.

Today was football media day in Ann Arbor.

We are used to seeing Jim Harbaugh yelling at the top of his lungs, his vocal chords getting ready to snap as another player faces his wrath.

“That is a great question, and I love that you’re thinking about that”.

The report says as Harbaugh roamed the halls of the Supreme Court offices, he found time to meet with five of the nine judges. “Drink as much milk as your little belly can hold, at all times”.

With few details emerging about what will actually be shown to recruits through these goggles, we can only speculate about what that will be, but perhaps the emotion, sounds and sights a player sees when he runs out on the field in front of a sold out Big House will be part of the experience.

NOTES: Thursday was youth day at Michigan Stadium, with an autograph session and other activities for kids. “That’s awesome”.

“I drank a lot of milk, Andrea, a lot of milk”, he told Andrea Kremer.

Looking past the surface, however, shows Rudock won’t have to go through too much of a gauntlet in that wide-open battle. Unless noted otherwise, all quotes were obtained firsthand.
