Harbaugh is arrogant as piss. I know some of you don't remember him playing. I remember his entire career at Michigan and then with the Bears, Colts, Chargers, etc.He always acted like an arrogant prick, and I couldn't stand him. Now, I know most of these major college and NFL coaches are arrogant, but I really think Harbaugh was like," Sell myself hell, I'm Jim Harbaugh". Our Dan Mullen was alot like this when he first got hired, but he has gotten better. It was like you should be honored to play for me because I'm Dan Mullen. I think all those questions Cowherd asked just irked Jim off because, well he's Jim Harbaugh.

I really dont like Cowherd but he did nothing wrong in that interview. Harbaugh was so cringeworthy.

That's from the Michigan board?

Harbaugh is a known a-hole, and if anything, this will drive more people to listen to that interview, improving Cowherd's numbers.

I mean, I get that he went to the Pop/Belichick class "How to deal with the media 101", but those two guys don't go out of their way to do radio shows and shite.

I don't blame Harbaugh at all. Collin began the interview really weird and over the top



Exactly...And I watched the rest of the show on tv and Cowherd was basically drooling over himself because of all the attention the interview got... I am sure Jim just went back to cutting his lawn afterword........

Yeah. It's linked in this thread. Some pretty entertaining delusion over there.

You'll never catch Saban acting like that in an interview. It's called being professional. Especially in an interview he could have easily turned down.

Again correct. Jim should have turned it down. He did have a chance to sell his program and wasn't to good at it, But Cowherd came across as a douche...

I generally like Cowherd and Harbaugh comes across as a dick. If you don't want to talk, don't do the interview.

As would every talking head in the business. That's their job. Russillo even echoed the same.

Know what else he does? He uses every opportunity humanly possible to promote Alabama. And do you ever watch him in 1 on 1 interviews? Guy has fun and can be charming. People comparing Harbaugh and Saban are way off. Saban can be a prick and gets mad and can be fiery. But never does he act like he's the smartest guy on the face of the planet or like he's too good to enjoy himself around people.

Colin's intro into the segment/interview sucked...but his second question was very straightforward and Jim gave him shite to work with.

And I hate Cowherd, btw.


Agreed.

I can't stand Cowherd and kind of like Harbaugh, but some of the questions were actually legit. I was actually interested in the question about the differences in the typical day of a college coach versus pro coach, and Harbaugh came off as a dud.

The "buy" question was stupid and was set up terribly -- I didn't know what he was talking about either at first -- but some of the others were decent, if not softballs.

Still though, it's pretty funny how he wasn't playing ball with Cowberd one bit.

A few years back, Mr USC, Colin Cowherd said he was afraid of the state of Louisiana. Lost all respect for him and his liberal westcoast loving self!

I'm an Aspy and 9er fan. Said that four years ago.

It's exactly how I would have answered most of those questions.

Yeah, that one was horrendously stupid on Harbaugh's part.

A nationally syndicated radio host with a large college football following is giving you a platform like ESPN and lobbing you a meatball so you can sell your program to recruits nationwide and you come up empty? I'd be pissed if that were my coach.

First off Harbaugh answered every question he was asked. Just because his answers were sometimes short or answers Colin didn't like, didn't make it okay for Colin to start whining mid interview.

Secondly, Cowherd has been shitting all over Michigan going back to the firing of Hoke.

He said kids don't want to play in cold weather, Michigan is not a football power anymore, Harbaugh will never take this job. Then after they hired him he still kept shitting on Michigan and acting like not much will Chang and bragging on Urban and basically saying Urban will own Harbaugh.

Then today he starts asking all these dumbass questions like "Are you ever not intense?"

And Colin was kissing his arse, you'll turn it around, Michigan is a power still blah, blah, blah.

Harbaugh doesn't like arse-kissing fake arse people.

I think this way Colin won't ask to interview Harbaugh again and that's just fine and dandy with Jim.
