Harbaugh to Tennessee’s Butch Jones

Arkansas Razorbacks head coach Bret Bielema tweeted that him and his staff would be at Michigan’s open practice at IMG Academy in order to also have a presence around numerous country’s top high school players that will be in attendance. “Thinking about heading to watch an open practice tomorrow at IMG with the staff”.

Butch Jones got involved in a Twitter gag with two fellow head coaches on Wednesday at the expense of Michigan’s Jim Harbaugh. More importantly, if Dantonio, Bielema and Harbaugh were to actually meet up for lunch in Florida, they could probably auction off the fourth seat at their table and raise enough money to pay the full bill for Michigan’s spring trip.

On Thursday afternoon Harbaugh responded to joins by tweeting, “Suggestion to my Rocky Top colleague, rather than lunch in Florida you might spend your time and focus attending to your present team”.

Harbaugh, while ignoring Bielema and Dantonio, took aim at Jones, whose Tennessee team is in the middle of an ugly incident involving two former players charged for aggravated rape. It’s scheduled to start at 5 p.m.at IMG Academy, and is a chance for both players and high school coaches to attend.

Meanwhile, other coaches suggested they might attend Thursday’s practice in Bradenton, Fla. Friday’s practice is open to the public and a few FBS coaches have joked on Twitter about making an appearance. Unsurprisingly, it isn’t because of a recruiting quiet period.
