What, did you expect Jim Harbaugh to not make some noise at the Big Ten Media Days?
Earlier this month, the Michigan head coach appeared in the video for a rap song titled “Who’s Got It Better Than Us?” If you were a Wolverines fan, you liked it; if you were not a fan of the program, you more than likely abhorred it. And you were probably a stick-up-the-keister caucasian for that matter.
At least, that’s Harbaugh’s take on the criticism, as he relayed during his time with the media Monday.More Harbaugh on doing a rap video: “It’s only uptight white people that didn’t like it.”

There you have it, white people, from, ironically enough, the Pasty Khaki King himself.
And, not surprisingly, Harbaugh’s off-field antics aren’t likely in the past.
“My default is usually yes,” Harbaugh said, from transcripts provided by the conference, when asked about how the video came to fruition and why he did it. “Action, why not? And the reaction has been very good. I’ve gotten multiple texts, phone calls, comments from people that really liked it and I think the cool people liked it.”
Take that, uncool white folk.
