Jim Harbaugh Works The Chains For A High School Game In Exchange for a Steak Sandwich

NY Daily News…When the Michigan football coach was asked Monday why he recently helped the chain gang during a Bay Area high school football game, his answer shouldn’t have come as a surprise.

“They needed a guy. I was promised a tri-tip steak sandwich at halftime, that was all I needed to hear,” Harbaugh told reporters.

Beating a dead horse with Harbaugh but just to re-iterate. This is the beauty of Jim Harbaugh. That he does all these things 1,000% dead serious and un-ironically. In a world full of publicity stunts and carefully crafted PR moves and #branding, Jim Harbaugh is a man who wakes up, puts the same pair of pants on one leg at a time, and just goes out and lives however he sees fit. What’s amazing is that the way he sees fit to live is by being a complete and total fucking psychopath. Gatorade in his Cheerios, glasses of milk 9 times a day, steaks at every meal, climbing trees and having sleepovers with recruits, all of it, the total package, it’s all just the stuff he wants to do in his weird ass brain.

Like you can frame this as a “recruiting thing” all you want.

On Friday, Harbaugh attended St. Mary’s vs. El Cerrito — a team that boasts offenstive tackle Aaron Banks — in Albany, Calif., where cameras caught him and his signature khakis on the sideline.

Harbaugh made the high school rounds on recruiting trips during the Wolverines’ bye week, even announcing the homecoming queen at Antioch High School in California.

Jim Harbaugh 1 bajillion percent just wanted to work the chains and get a tri-tip steak sandwich.
