Google tells me that a year ago, it was said that he would. I haven't heard anything recently. Once plans are ironed out, I'm guessing they will.

AWESOME! We live in VA and my rising sophomore will attend. I think he'll get low level D1 or D2 offers. But I'm hoping for a PWO from UM....

I'm sure Manuel will chime in pretty soon about how these camps harm the high school students or something. He'll have a quick talk with Harbaugh and then we can all get back to our normal, bland, Carr era football.

I know that the mere mention of his name will get me negged but while scanning the stations I heard someone say Harbaugh and Manuel. Mike Valentii called Jim Harbaugh a "little girl" when it comes to Twitter and then said he was a psychopath or something like that.

I hope they meet face to face some day. I'd like to see that douche Valenti squirm like a little girl. Douche.

The article notes that the proposals put forth by the ACC and SEC to ban these camps and to forbid guest coaches at another school's camp are up for vote next month.  If they do pass, what is Michigan and Harbaugh's next move? 

The proposals may be post-dated, so that this year's Summer Swarm would still be within the rules, but any future attempts to do it next season would a violation of the NCAA regulations.  If the rules are passed and put into place immediately, then what happens?

Does Harbaugh go through the with the camps and basically defy the NCAA?  Or does he back down and live within the scope of the regulations?

It will be interesting to see how the other conferences and schools vote on the matter.  They could say no to the proposals and Harbaugh can continue as before.  But if they say yes, than what does Michigan and JH do?

WIll there be a p.r. pushback against the NCAA, etc.?  I imagine yes, but I don't think they reall care, especially the ACC and SEC schools.  As long as their recruting backyards are protected, I imagine they'd be willing to roll with the fallout.

It would be very ballsy if Harbaugh opted to defy the new regulations and go forward with the Summer Swarm tour either this year or next.  I don't think the NCAA would be very happy with such open defiance to their governing bodies, so this could turn out to be one hell of a showdown.

He's all about winning within the rules, and it would be silly to ignore a rule change of this nature.  Harbaugh's shrewd, not silly.  Plus, a willful and direct rule violation would end up punishing his players - and that's off limits.

Instead, I'd expect him to give the rule book a hard look, and come up with a new way to popularize the brand and exploit loopholes.  And he'd tell every recruit South of the Mason-Dixon line that the SEC and ACC coaches are afraid to let those recruits hear Michigan's message. 

In the military, it's called staying within the enemy's planning cycle.  Harbaugh will do that, whether the enemy is the SEC, ACC, NCAA or some other entity getting in the damn way of the train.
