If any of the B1G coaches had any sense they would all be booking similar trips. Wisonsin should be trying to find a practice field on Bielema's street.

Well, why not be second to the market, eh? 

I will say, however, that the "map" of where their current class members are from (it has made the rounds on Twitter) only extends as far south as the Cincinnati area, as I recall. It does qualify as a destination in that it is a place that is not East Lansing and MSU does occasionally get high-level MAC prospects out of southern Ohio.

All for the B1G coaches emulating this. I do not fear competition and if the Big 10 improves it will only make Michigan victories sweeter. Go get em Dantonio.

This is a step the B1G should have taken years ago. Thank you Harbaugh for thinking outside the box. I'm all for every B1G team expanding their footprint down south. This has been a long time coming as an equalizer for all northern schools. Eat it SEC/ACC. Harbaugh!

Are EMU and CMU next?  Mork missed the memo on his program being only of regional relevance.  All their recent success with Michigan in a down cycle and redshirting 3* freshmen and pumping them full of roids has gone to their head.  

THe delusion is strong in East Lansing. Hard enough for Meyer and Harbaugh to pull elite talent out of the south even with the institutional and program advantages from stadium, town and facilities to tradition and exposure.  Yep, I'm sure the Florida and Louisiana 5*'s will be lining up to play for this douche in a trash stadium.

He must be trolling and trying to blow up Harbaugh's plans down there.

I was really mystified when he said this about Staee. We can run from them or embrace them. This is Staee option about Spring practice. Run from U of M or embrace U of M. I believe there is a saying that goes something like; Imitatation is the highest form of flattery.

His does not really want to do this, he only wants to make it appear that way. He is trying to sabotage our trip this year by giving the NCAA the idea that a lot of northern schools will be adopting this same practice next year.

RCMB logic:  

If Harbaugh cheats, we'll cheat too.  That'll mean someone will stop him and we'll be the righteous majority.  

I wonder if different fan bases could be clincally diagnosed with psychological issues and what the coorelation is between those issues and the fan base of choice.

So, if the NCAA becomes so concerned on spring break "time off" for athletes, does this mean basically every single baseball, softball, track, golf etc team from DIV3 up will have to cancel trips over these times as well? It is a big case of BS "concern that they are all showing.

It's a briliant idea, Dantonio is smart to copy it.  And we were smart to pick IMG. but MSU picks St. Thomas Aquinas or maybe a Georgia school.

This is just a tremendous opportunity to recruit for a whole week in front of a lot fo top targets, plus you get to throw some cash their school's way, that can't hurt relations.
