ESPN: Jim Harbaugh fires back at Nick Saban for satellite camp 'lecturing'

[BleedGopher]

per ESPN:

Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh fired back at Nick Saban's "lecturing" in a tweet Tuesday night after the Alabama coach called satellite camps "bad for college football" and compared them to "the wild, wild West" during Tuesday's SEC spring meetings.

After initially saying he would not discuss satellite camps, Saban went off in a five-minute rant during which he blasted the practice for incorporating third parties into recruiting, as well as the lack of guidelines.

"This is the wild, wild West at its best," he said. "There have been no specific guidelines relative to how we're managing control of this stuff. It's happening outside the normal evaluation window, which means we're taking time away from our players. We have to worry about our players doing the right things with the limited time we have them, but we're not going to do that because we have to be somewhere else to see someone else."

Saban, who has never been a fan of satellite camps, characterizing them as "ridiculous," went on to say it was "amazing to [him] somebody didn't stand up and say here are going to be the unintended consequences of what you all are doing."

Harbaugh, who has embraced satellite camps like no other coach, took exception to Saban's comments and responded on Twitter with an apparent jab referencing the Alabama assistant who recently resigned after alleged recruiting violations.

So are his players going wild when the coaches are out recruiting over the winter?

Give me a break, he is just mad this is helping other programs.

I pretty much think Harbaugh is an a$$ but I do like how he goes out there and doesn't let other coaches get away with crying bullsht
