I love the concept. Does anyone know if the players are enjoying it or seeing it as a burden? I hope it is a positive experience for everyone, but I can see how it could be a bit of a drag for some.

Angelique on Sam's show seems to think that players are enjoying it. She definitely seems to enjoy it. I heard she made Harbaugh dunk in the water? I have to find that video. Hope there is a video. some of the player statements made it sound like a great experience.

Thanks for sharing. I'm wondering how this works given that the fall practice season hasn't started. Are the coaches there or are these just player-led exercises?

Toured President Ford museum in GR yesterday, went Fowling last night, practice at EGR high school this morning, then on the Lake Michigan beach this afternoon ( Muskegon)

The trips have been one of my favorite aspects of Harbaugh's tenure.  I hope they continue in future years.  Giving them a chance to see more of the world beyond the football field ... how many other programs do this?  This is - seriously - the Michigan difference.

100%. Harbaugh has been delivering transformational (and unique) experiences to his players since he's been here, and yet so many people acted like this was pure marketing speak. The concept -- and practice -- of transformation is obviously something important to Harbaugh and meaningful to his players, and Michigan Football does that better than any other program I can think of.

Oh man, that's cool. Normally my wife and I go for a Saturday morning drive with our one-year old, and typically we end up driving past EGR High. No drive today, though, as I caught COVID and have been home-bound since yesterday.

Great experience, players were uniformly friendly and receptive to comments and encouraging words.  We got pics of my son (named Caden) with Corum and McNamara.  The latter’s reply to my son telling him, “My name is Cade too”, was “That’s a great name!”
