Harbaugh Press Conference OPEN Thread / "Harbaugh Day" Afternoon Thread
Thread for the press conference and "Harbaugh Day" pre-Michigan/Illinois basketball game (because I'm sure we'll need another tonight when the recruiting responses start rolling in).
http://www.mgoblue.com/collegesportslive/?media=479671
Twitter Recap:
A bit more detail: Harbaugh contract is approximately $5 million for 7 years, with incentives. Clearly, Michigan would like him to stay.

Jim Harbaugh told Hackett he did NOT want to be the highest paid coach in CFB, or even the Big Ten. More concerned with pay for assistants.
— John U. Bacon (@Johnubacon) December 30, 2014
Confirmed: Press conference is at noon at Junge Center. Harbaugh will be introduced to fans at halftime of basketball game.

Figured the buzz would be strong with this hiring, but even I am surprised at the reaction of the recruits I have talked to.

Michigan commit Brian Cole said he's expecting Jim Harbaugh to call him at 1:30 today. #UAALLAMERICA

Recruits react. An offered 2016 RB says he wants to commit & an offered 2017 prospect says #Michigan is now leader. https://t.co/VMKLoLmlnA

"How will you sell Michigan to recruits?" I guess it's not nice to say "I'm Jim muthafukkin Harbaugh, now come play for me."
