WTKA Roundtable 1/19/2023: Nobody Takes You Seriously

MGoBlog: The MGoPodcast

Things discussed:

• Harbaugh returns. At this point they're probably close on an agreement and have recruiting to worry about.
• Broncos were definitely interested, but this is just a return to status quo from last year.
• Contract will matter. Harbaugh clearly has NFL interest still, also has interest in being paid like a top-5 coach for respect purposes. Not about respect though: Saban's contract, Day's contract, Mel's contract: they all say the same things, which is this guy is staying.
• Ono: Very different experience for an athletic director. Did he cut Warde's legs out or is this just how he operates?
• NCAA investigation: Somebody there has a bug up their ass, and is clearly an incompetent idiot who's exposing the depth of his organization's fecklessless.
• Seriously, what they're doing here is the equivalent of trying to get Harbaugh for perjury for telling the officer he doesn't remember if he was going 35 or 30 in a 25 zone. Nobody does that unless they clearly shouldn't be in a position to do so.
• Weiss: Was hacking emails but for what? This could be really nothing but it also could be REALLY bad. Normal people don't do that, and when they do it's often for a very nefarious purpose. They've already ruled out some of the more awful stuff, but he could be harassing, covering something up…there are a lot of very bad reasons to be hacking email accounts and no good ones.
• QB analyst Kirk Campbell, Gattis guy, Michigan might be looking at him as on-field guy.
• How does this affect Jadyn Davis? Sam admits Davis's dad told Weiss he's a bad recruiter, but also they have a very good relationship now.
• Basketball: Praise for the two-bigs lineup, no praise for the tiny Big Ten, which Brian calls an "NIT league."
