“Everything Jim Harbaugh does is for a reason. The media falls for his stuff, but every time he’s out there in public he’s communicating to his team or to recruits, and maybe sometimes he’s sending a message to other coaches."



"The team is starting to reflect Jim — you could see it more last year."



"They want to outwork you. That was the whole satellite camp thing last offseason. He wanted to send a message to the SEC and other schools that he will outwork you to make up for any advantage you might have over Michigan."



"They’re scouting opponents better than anyone in our league. They’re at Alabama’s level of prep and analysis, and as they’ve started to fit talent you’re seeing the effects. It’s hard to surprise them."



"Let’s see how they can replace that secondary. It should be interesting because now it’s about how those big recruiting classes translate. Let’s see how fast we notice (Jabrill) Peppers being gone. If they’re going to seriously challenge Ohio State, that’s how you do it — by rolling in new playmakers every single year.



"How much do they trust (quarterback) Wilton Speight? He loses a lot of his targets. Are they going to ask him to do more?”
