Opposing coaches aim jokes at Harbaugh

Jim Harbaugh's decision to hold a week of Michigan spring practices at Florida’s IMG Academy has been making waves in the media and among fans since it was announced. With the Sunshine State practices now in full swing, however, opposing coaches are getting in on the commentary with jokes

Michigan’s Friday practice, which is set to take place roughly 1,200 miles away from the school's Ann Arbor campus, will be open to the public, meaning players, media, fans and … well, other FBS head coaches are welcome to attend.

On Wednesday, a few of said "other coaches" took to twitter to make what at least appeared to be jokes about showing up at IMG to watch the Wolverines work out.

First came a tweet from Arkansas head coach Bret Bielma

That was followed by a response from Michigan State head coach Mark Dantonio.

Tennessee head coach Butch Jones got in on the action a few hours later.

With 13 four and five-star prospects in the 2016 class alone, IMG is the nation’s top talent-producing high school. It's part of why many have debated the recruiting advantages the Wolverines could gain during their week of spring workouts on the high school’s campus. Michigan coaches are forbidden from speaking to IMG student athletes while on campus. The same rules would extend to coaches of other programs should they decide to actually crash the maize-and-blue party.
