Harbaugh in martin tn
A buddy of mine ran into Harbaugh in Martin,Tn. He was in town to talk to Ty Simpson, the son of University of Tennessee at Martin head coach Jason Simpson. The little airport was booming because in addition to Harbaugh, Jeremy Pruitt, Dabo, and Lincoln Riley were in town. Kid hasn't produced big numbers but they say he slays it in 7 on 7's. Big strong athletic kid.

“Slays it” lol.

Kids these days. When I was young that was called "pulling an OJ"
January 22nd, 2020 at 1:23 PM ^
A slasher.

2022 QB for anyone wondering...
January 22nd, 2020 at 9:37 AM ^

2022 QB target. High 4 star.
He did unofficially visit this summer, as well as visiting LSU, Clemson, Alabama, and Oklahoma (and has an offer from all but Clemson).
January 22nd, 2020 at 9:59 AM ^
Wow, 45 timeline events on his profile already as a sophomore? He hits the road hard, definitely going to be a national recruit.
January 22nd, 2020 at 9:38 AM ^
Harbaugh told him which recruit he was going to see?
January 22nd, 2020 at 9:41 AM ^
Not a lot of D1 in Martin Tennessee. Everyone knows who recruiters are here to see. He also went to a basketball game and everyone saw him talking to Simpson and his dad.
January 22nd, 2020 at 10:00 AM ^
Doesn't he and his family bleed orange ? Seems like a lock for in-state if so. Nice to have all the attention, but nothing like home cooking in Martin TN I bet.
January 22nd, 2020 at 9:40 AM ^
January 22nd, 2020 at 1:10 PM ^
I'd pass on the young man.
He's too short to play QB at Michigan.
January 22nd, 2020 at 1:12 PM ^
but does he have a weak arm?
January 22nd, 2020 at 3:20 PM ^
Perfect 6'1.5" he's already got a half inch on Shea, we are golden
January 22nd, 2020 at 8:23 PM ^
Maizen is not gonna like that 0 star in the composite.
January 22nd, 2020 at 10:03 AM ^
So when Harbaugh, Pruitt, Dabo and Riley are all in the same podunk town watching the same basketball game, etc., do they avoid each other or do they hang out? How does that work? Is it like in Johnny Be Good where the coaches are elbowing each other out of the way to talk to the recruit?
...and who would have thought that Robert Downey Jr. and Uma Thurman would have been the action stars out of those three?
January 22nd, 2020 at 12:34 PM ^
I’ve heard you all hang out as long as you’ve been to a CFP game.
January 22nd, 2020 at 12:42 PM ^
Never saw the film. Totally thought that was Drew Barrymore.
January 23rd, 2020 at 10:40 AM ^
Just stick it in some dirt.
January 22nd, 2020 at 10:09 AM ^
Unless Riley goes to the NFL, any talented QB of that type should be going to Oklahoma. Pretty much guaranteed to be in Heisman consideration.
January 22nd, 2020 at 10:26 AM ^
Or get bumped to the bench by a transfer or lower rated player. Nothing "pretty much guaranteed" in football.
January 22nd, 2020 at 10:43 AM ^
C'mon man, don't be that pedantic guy.
January 22nd, 2020 at 10:12 AM ^
Love slaying, dude.
January 22nd, 2020 at 10:30 AM ^
Fake News. I've been told by people on the internet Harbaugh doesn't personally recruit anymore, doesn't care about recruiting in general and is happy being 8-4.
Must be a doppelganger like The Outsider.
January 22nd, 2020 at 10:45 AM ^
Great show...Stephen King at his best!
January 22nd, 2020 at 10:53 AM ^
But, but, Michigan isn't trying hard enough at recruiting.
January 22nd, 2020 at 12:41 PM ^
I’m all for taking a swing at some prospects but Harbaugh should have picked a different week to visit. In the same room with Riley and Dabo, he’s got to feel like a third wheel.
January 22nd, 2020 at 6:38 PM ^
4th wheel. The bags of money probably feel like the third wheel.
January 22nd, 2020 at 11:22 AM ^
I missed the last word initially and thought someone had unearthed a Harbaugh cameo in the TV show Martin.
January 22nd, 2020 at 11:29 AM ^
Hire Jason Simpson
January 22nd, 2020 at 11:36 AM ^
That is kind of the word on the street that Jason Simpson will probably go where his son goes. He has done a pretty good job at UTM. They have no facilities and no money and have competed pretty well in the OVC.Of course nobody actually knows anything it is all just gossip now. The little town of Martin was jumping with excitement yesterday.
January 22nd, 2020 at 11:47 AM ^
Don't these college coaches realize how much damage they're causing the environment by flying private jets to recruit? How dare they! In addition to angry fans and alums who get hopes up then demolished, now they will have to answer to Greta Thunberg!
January 22nd, 2020 at 11:56 AM ^
Way to shoehorn your own bullshit in completely unnecessarily, you absolute buffoon. Are you so sickly consumed by politics you have to force it into conversations where it has no place?
January 22nd, 2020 at 12:05 PM ^
Relax and take a couple chill pills. It was a joke!!!
January 22nd, 2020 at 1:10 PM ^
It wasn't a joke...lying doesn't make it one. Nobody with concerns in this regard would "offer" this as a "joke"...just not the way it works.
January 22nd, 2020 at 2:21 PM ^
Back into the box weirdo.
January 22nd, 2020 at 5:03 PM ^
Looks like the sarcasm detectors on this board, need replacement batteries ;o)
Or maybe we need a special sarcasm emjoli to avoid unnecessary drone strikes.

I'm really glad sometimes that 50 years old is shining on me and I have bad genes. This country is fricking screwed.
January 22nd, 2020 at 12:25 PM ^
Joke fail.
Can't win em all.
January 22nd, 2020 at 1:07 PM ^
I like how OP typed that first capital letter in "Harbaugh" and then just sort of said, "screw it."
January 22nd, 2020 at 1:58 PM ^
Harbaugh is greater than Tennessee.
January 22nd, 2020 at 2:06 PM ^
I'm not sure what the point of any of those coaches showing up is. If they weren't there on Saturday (or whenever the first day of visitations was), then those programs obviously have not shot at him.
January 22nd, 2020 at 2:06 PM ^
Hard to see this kid leaving the south. If he does, OSU or Oklahoma would probably be the choice given what they have done with qb's over the past 5 years.
January 22nd, 2020 at 2:22 PM ^
Ordinarily, I'd agree but the QB son of a football HC really gives Harbaugh a unique vantage point to recruit from.
January 22nd, 2020 at 6:45 PM ^
He is better off trotting out the lack of development and overall underwhelming play of his quarterbacks to people who don't know what they are looking at.
January 22nd, 2020 at 2:53 PM ^
But Harbaugh is an inferior recruiter with no plan. I absolutely 210% believe the Harb8ers.
