Fox Sports has to be ecstatic that they have this game. Can't wait to see what the ratings are for this game. Should be through the roof.

This is dumb but not surprising in the least. 

There's going to be more closeups of Harbaugh during that game than you have EVER seen from a head coach during a game. 

It won't be just touchdowns, opposing touchdowns, sacks or interceptions.  The cameras are going to zoom in on Harbaugh for 1 yard gains, 5 yard passes, flags, extra points, safeties...you name it.

It's going to be completely over the top.

And he most assuredly will get caught during a cursing fit or losing it...

I hate the media waaay too often these day. This is the dumbest thing in the world...let's put a camera on one man and just follow him around while he watches/coaches a football game.

Fox should be smacked for this and ESPN should be smacked twice for starting it with the Johnny Manziel cam.

I'm perfectly okay if you want to have alternate broadcasts...I think what ESPN does with the National Championship game is brilliant. They do the usual broadcast, then the home team radio, then visiting team radio, then a group of real head coaches breaking down the game in the studio...they also do the "stadium sounds" broadcast which is cool.

Following one player or coach is so fucking dumb I can't say it enough. Maybe have a bunch of old Michigan legends breaking down the game? Maybe do the stadium sounds thing? Maybe have a camera on the Michigan sideline that shows the viewer the perspective/angle of the head coach or player watching from the sideline?

All of those would be infinitely better than this KhakiCam bullshit.

I'm gonna be locked into it...fuck the game. I just want to see Harbaugh standing around pointing and talking behind some big ass laminated sheet of paper. #SoExcited

Edit: Just thought about it some more...they could easily get Marcus Ray and Jon Jansen who work for BTN. Put Woodson, Braylon (who's done BTN), and a QB in the room and you have your panel. Maybe add Coach Carr or Moeller.

I actually might tune in or at least record that while I'm watching the normal broadcast.

FOX, I just came up with an idea that is a billion times better than your KhakiCam and I'm just some guy who spends waay to much time posting to people I don't know on a message board. Step your game up.

Crisler after curbstomping USC in the 1948 Rose Bowl:

Tom Harmon's QB and captain Forest Evashevski as Iowa's last Rose Bowl winning HC. Think a guy who lit a victory cigar with thirty seconds left in The Game is gonna coach in a hoodie? (No offense to hoodies.)

This man right here kicked so much ass in the Rose Bowl that they cancelled it for thirteen years, and he did it in a suit.

Dudeing around...

Just a sign of our society these days.

There is so much interesting stuff about this guy. You could have so many intelligent discussions about his style of offense, his style of coaching, his way of doing things, etc.

Instead, we focus on his pants.


Way to go America.

Go up there and lay a fucking egg! I'm hoping we don't but there is way to much press on the hat, the khakis, the Twitter, the referencing back to his playing days. Just get out there and win some games. We lay a egg Thursday and u can say goodbye to the good fortune were building. Everyone will say "same ole Michigan"

Every time I read his name, see a picture of the man, or read a story about him, I have a multi-step reaction:

1.  Cool, Harbaugh.

2.  Holy hell, that's right-he's our coach now!

3.  If not for idiotic management by the 49ers, and a couple of plays standing between us and a 7-5 season last year, he wouldn't be our coach.

4.  *Shudders violently, throws up a little bit in mouth.

5.  Jimmy came home!  COOL, HARBAUGH!

If the KhakiCam provides at that level, then we might very well be halfway through the season before Ace even finishes making GIFs of reactions from the first game. We might see something like "Friday Recruitin' Is Looking For New Video Capture Software" or something along those lines by the time October rolls around.
