Well, it seems that UT put on it's own satellite camp at TSU in Nashville with MTSU also participating. I guess doing satellite camps isn't so bad after all, huh SEC coaches.

LOL ... in the words of Don King ... "Only in America baby ... only in America!"

Harbaugh has been acting a fool here lately. The man is a good coach in his own right, but he's writing check that his butt hasn't been able to yet cash. He's taking the Lane Kiffin approach while he was at UT with the whole "all publicity is good publicity.

Harbaugh's coaching track record is impeccable. From his stint at Stanford to the San Francisco 49ers to his first year at Michigan last year. His production on the field has already cashed in whatever checks he's writing right now. He's got all of the SEC coaches in a funk. It's obvious he's going to raise the standard of athlete that commits to Michigan football. He 'out flanked' all of the D1 coaches, especially the SEC coaches, to the point they sounded like cry babies! He's going to win a national championship at Michigan, and probably more then 1.

 

I feel confident in saying that I don't think that the Michigan folk will hate Harbaugh like the Tennessee folk hate/hated Kiffin. Kiffin was an embarrassment. Harbaugh has the other coaches mimicking what he started because they just didn't have the vision to do it before he thought to do it. The two are no where near the same. We can agree to disagree on that perspective.

Well said!

Plus Harbaugh and the Michigan Coaching Staff are all willing to work! This time of yr is often a break for college coaches, which is one of the main reasons some schools that "always have had the player come to them" are upset. Can't stay at home and work their three camps and be done.

 

There will be a huge crowd at Oakland Tuesday.

he might have an impeccable record but he's already in trouble with the NCAA on these camps. He's been taking selfies with players and parents and signing autographs which is a violation of the NCAA camp rules...And not allowing media into the camps so there is no one watching. Its like to fox guarding the hen house..

There has been plenty of media at these events, but what exactly are you going to report on? It's just a camp.

 

Truth is the NCAA/SEC are just mad at Harbaugh because he found a LEGAL way to maximize the exposure of his program in the SEC's backyard.

 

If he camped predominantly in another part of the country, this wouldn't have gotten near the attention that it has

Screw  Coach Harbaugh, and screw Michigan. I just don't think they'll be as welcomed here as Harbaugh believes. I just don't see too many open arms flooding the stadium.

 

Tennessee, Vanderbilt to join Jim Harbaugh at Oakland camp

 

Tom Kreager, tkreager@dnj.com 11:49 a.m. CDT June 9, 2016

 

 

MURFREESBORO — Oakland's elite exposure football camp will have some SEC flavor after all.

 

Tennessee and Vanderbilt will join Michigan and coach Jim Harbaugh on Tuesday in a satellite camp at Oakland High.

Registration is from 2:30 p.m.-4:30 p.m. The camp will be from 5 p.m.-8 p.m.

 

Oakland coach Kevin Creasy said Harbaugh will coach quarterbacks — the position he played as an athlete at Michigan and later in the NFL — at the exposure camp. Vanderbilt coach Derek Mason, a former assistant to Harbaugh, will coach defensive backs at the camp.

 

Creasy hasn't been told which coaches from Tennessee will be at the camp.

 

Vanderbilt head coach Derek Mason will be at the Oakland elite exposure football camp on Tuesday.

 

There are 13 college teams scheduled to help out at the camp, including Arkansas State, Louisville, Memphis, MTSU and Navy among other FBS schools.

 

Austin Peay, Eastern Kentucky, Gardner Webb, Lindsey Wilson, Tennessee Tech and UT Martin will also be there.

 

"We don't have a wide range of our players that are going to get offers from Michigan or Tennessee," said Creasy of the other programs.

 

"We wanted everyone to benefit from our team. Our players are being recruited by Lindsey Wilson, Austin Peay and UT Martin.

 

"This isn't a one-dog pony show. I think it will be a great deal. It's a great way to showcase our kids."

Creasy said MTSU coach Rick Stockstill will coach running backs at the camp.

 

Creasy said he's excited about the camp for his players as well as other campers, who will get an opportunity to be coached by college coaches.

 

"I want them to get their butts coached off," he said. "They get some really good instruction in a three-hour window. They are going to work their tail off."

 

The camp is open to any high school student.

 

"How many times in your life do you have an opportunity like this with them in your own backyard," Creasy said. "A lot of our kids don't have the funds, time or the support to drive 16 hours for a camp. This is an opportunity to shine in front of all these colleges."

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!! THIS is too funny! I couldn't have scripted it better myself.

 

So, do you still think that coach Harbaugh isn't going to get a big reception at Oakland High school?

 

That was a rhetorical question by the way.

 

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!! ... ooooohhhhh, I'm crying that I'm laughing so hard!

 

Well, LOLOLOLO, I guess ole Butchie said ... "if you can't beat them, join them!"

    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
