Able to go for many reasons (the main ones being distance and money), but if I had a son and was able to go, I'd take him, no question about it. 11-year-old me would've loved it...and so would 29-year-old me.
Record everything.
Report back here and post all of it.
You will be the MGoBlog Hero of the Day.
If Harbaugh catches you, well, let us know what you want on your tombstone just in case.
My actual goal is to get "WHOSE GOT IT BETTER THAN US?" on video.
While you are there - whoever is attending - and you have some spare time, please snoop about and see if you can find Greg Sankey or any representative of the SEC chained to the fences in protest of this event. Of course, by the time Friday comes, they will have been there all week and will likely be hungry and unkempt - do the humanitarian thing and offer them a sandwich, or perhaps a clean towel or glass of water. Then, gather the young people nearby around and say, "This, children, is what hypocrisy looks like" so they'll have a clear understanding.
Pictures or it didn't happen!
either shoveling snow or mowing the lawn. Could be both on the same day.
Have fun and Go Blue!
You must not get online much

It was just a comment on the weather recently. Supposed to be low 60's next week. Have a great day.
I won't be there because I had to take some time next week for a family thing. Looking forward to hearing from everyone who is headed out there.

Make sure to impress on your son that none of the players are having any fun on their free trip to florida, and that while he can appreciate the opportunity this time, this is really really bad for these young players to go to florida and play golf and lay on the beach and play a game for a week for free.
If he puts you on Darboh for a play or two, just hope it isn't a run play so you don't get blocked by Darboh. That might be worse than trying to keep up with him.
THIS is good parenting. Give them experience and an understanding of who they are whenever possible.
I wish I could go. I own a condo about a mile from IMG, but it is booked solid until mid-April.
Go check out Coquina Beach afterwards. I'm sure you will see a bunch of players there for one last beach day before they head home.

How's participation from H.S. coaches been or has Florida HS Football scared them off? Anyone heard anything?

Your kid is lucky to have you as a Dad.
In case of a potential Harbaugh interaction I'm going to wear one of my USCENTCOM shirts and ask him to "swap jerseys". That's legit, right?
Take off your shirt. Harbaugh will respect the hustle.
I live in Tampa and was going to bring my 13 year old, what time do the gates open for the public?

We are just making a day of it. My son and I are pulling out of the New Tampa area around 1100...should hit Bradenton around 1200-1230 and will spend a couple hours at the beach before queuing up around 1500 or so.
Just a heads up.. traffic down here as been nutso lately. Your timing should be good to avoid the major back up times, but getting on and off the island can be a mess.
I would stick to entering and exiting the beach via Manatee Ave and on the way to IMG taking Manatee to 75th to 53rd to 34th will be the easiest way to get to the gates of Harbaugh
I'll be there with my 4yr old at 4!
Good looking out, brother. I hope you have a great time of it.
I'm planning on attending. We'll probably arrive by 4:30 or so.
Ours is but to read and sigh.
