about the way they announced the satellite camps. If the NCAA ends up making up a rule that they will not be allowed in the future, then Michigan gets one year out of it (assuming this summer is grand-fathered in). We have almost unanimously said that we like the Harbaugh approach, but if you're the head coach of Michigan and your top goal is to actually go into these fertile recruiting territories and make your presence felt, then there was a far better way to do so without raising attention. They simply could have done this on the down low. Agreed to the camps, and even let the local camps market that Michigan coaches, including Jim, were coming. Maybe you don't get as many kids, but it still gives U-M coaches the chance to go into these places and set up shop and make some connections.

By putting it out there in a release and making a big deal out of it, Harbaugh's brashness may be the reason why these camps go away, and that will ultimately undermine the goal of doing them. Food for thought.
