He's a great coach. Met him at the Michigan clinic in the spring. Living in Michigan hearing about him non-stop gets so old. I wonder how tired of him other college coaches are.
I liked the Florida coach shrugging him off and having no response. That seemed to be his response in their bowl game too.

I like how most of these guys are dismissive in their opinion of Harbaugh, and yet who among them has had the success he has had at all levels. I like Meyeres response, and I am a Buckeye fan. I am glad to see Harbaugh in the Big Ten.

How can we make this coaching instead of fan boy related?
Maybe share how being unorthodox with your players can help you recruit the hallways or get through, etc

Harbaugh's record as a HC speaks for itself.
I think he's interesting, good for the Big Ten, but also being a Michigander I've reached Harbaugh overload by the media.
Good thing now that they're in Fall Camp they've gone into the "Submarine" as Harbaugh calls it.
One thing to watch: Blue Bloods forget Brady Hoke went 11-2, won Sugar Bowl HIS first year at U-M.
Harbaugh is off to a similar start, will have to avoid the drop-off that cost Brady the job.
I also thought it was instructive that when his DC DJ Durkin left to be HC at Maryland he hired someone (Don Brown from BC) who is going to run a different scheme. Most HCs wouldn't have done that.

He is doing his job, his way! When you do something different, you can be frowned upon. The media loves him because he does things differently. There is nothing wrong with that! He seems to be comfortable enough in himself that he really doesn't give a damn what others think! If you are a coach, that is a hell of a trait to have!

Indifference. He coaches his team, I coach mine. We don't even play Michigan.

Passionate
Spent this past weekend there with my RB
He's a little different But he's passionate about football, his family, his team, and recruiting
That passion makes him very energetic and he may seem a little out there to some But his passion has jolted life back into that program and recruiting

Intense. In every aspect of the game he is intense. EVERY aspect.

Jim Carrey... because he looks and reacts to things on the field as if he was in a Jim Carrey movie.
All kidding aside I have great respect for him as a coach.
He is probably the only coach in NFL history to in his first 4 years have a winning record, three consecutive play off appearances, an NFC championship, and A Superbowl appearance, yet lose his job? (yeah yeah...they "parted ways")
Also I will always hold him in high regards after what he did during the American Sniper Fiasco, and stood up for his country in the face of these regressive politically correct MARXISTS. (I know this is a non political forum ... but it's the truth).

Well I thought it related to coaching in this way. We all know a coach like Harbaugh. Everyone hates him but he wins. Some guys are very egotistical and some are very humble but some are just plain intolerable.

Harbaugh can coach football.
But is he even the most boisterous head coach in the state? I mean Fleck (WMU) is pretty flamboyant. I don't mean that negatively because I love his enthusiasm.
