A Harbaugh Slumber Party.

Terry O'Keefe · Jan 13, 2016

No limits to what Harbaugh will do to secure the best players he can for Michigan. I wonder how Urban will respond!

Well, Harbaugh’s back with another one of his very special ideas — a slumber party at a prospective kicker’s house.

“He’ll be there at 12:01 (a.m. on Friday) to spend the entire day with me,” Quinn Nordin, the No. 1-ranked placed kicker according to Rivals, told the Detroit Free Press this week.

“We’re going to wake up in the morning and, if my parents say go to school, we’re going to go to school, and Coach Harbaugh will be in every single class with me, sitting right next me and I’ll be doing my schoolwork,” Nordin continued. “If not, he’s going to eat breakfast with me and my family at the house and we’re going to go to Ann Arbor. He’s going to personally drive us to Ann Arbor. It should be pretty fun.”

He'll help take down the kid's Penn State stuff!

That's too funny...plus he'll sleep on the floor.

"He told me if I had a 6-foot-3 inch piece of carpet for him to sleep on, that would be enough," Nordin said. "I said we have guest rooms, and he said ‘tell you what, I’ll just sleep on the floor in your room.’ I said ‘coach, I have Penn State stuff all over my walls.’ He said, ‘tell you what, I can help you take it down.’"

OK well ND can kiss the playoffs good bye! Lloyd hates the Irish! :shock:

Don't worry. I do not think those posting you made when he was still coach about his..err..health issues ever got back to him.

(passage from an article about Carr meeting a M alum and his Domer spouse)

as an undergraduate and alumni my interaction with Carr has been brief. I've seen him speak on numerous occasionsand watched him from afar on many others. To this day, what sticks withme was speaking with him at an alumni event in Chicago many, many years ago. It was towards the end of the evening when my wife and I approached Coach Carr. Though a Notre Dame grad, my wife is a college footballfan, and the prospect of meeting such a renown coach (despite it being the head coach of a bitter rival) intrigued her. So we approached and introduced ourselves.

I nervously introduced myself and my wife, then thanked him for all he'd done for the alumni chapter before related a brief story of how I became a Michigan fan and grad, to which he politely chuckled. Then, despite having an out in the conversation, Carr engaged us further. Asking when my wife had graduated Michigan, she responded that she was, in fact, a Domer. Carr lit up and immediately began talking about the great games at NotreDame he'd been involved with, the history, and how much respect he had for the program. We talked, laughed, and eventually a member of the athletic department came to remind the Coach that he had a flight to catch. We said our good-byes, and as Carr left my wife and I sat there stunned by the wonderful man we had just met. Carr was just that kind of man. You felt like the center of the universe when he talked to you.

Actually when I brought Lloyd up on another board a ND grad took up for Lloyd and said he respected the Irish and would be fair to us . Is it possible l have been wrong all these years? :shock:

Terry, one of your comrades on NDNation sees the silver lining.
