INSIDE MICHIGAN ATHLETICS "I kind of look it as, more power to him. It's totally legal. He's not doing anything that's illegal. He's pressing the envelopes; he's putting their name in the paper every day. And you know, that's cool." — Florida head coach Jim McElwain on Harbaugh taking his team to Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy for spring practice (courtesy The Tampa Bay Times) "You play in this league and deal with all of the things that everybody deals with, especially with them, I would have hoped they would have been in the [NCAA] Tournament before this. Hopefully, there's no doubt about that. They're an excellent team. They have been all year." — Indiana head coach Tom Crean after his team's 72-69 loss to Michigan in the Big Ten Tournament, one many felt secured U-M's place in the NCAA Tournament "The president of the NCAA — in my opinion — he probably regrets a lot of what he said. There are a lot of things to be worried about in this world, this country, and if you're going to take a moral position on something and you're going to take a stand for what's right, I don't think it's spring break." — Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh on NCAA President Mark Emmert's comments against U-M football players going to Florida for spring football on their break THEY SAID IT U-M head coach Jim Harbaugh in response to people saying he runs his program like a circus "We take that as a compliment."
