15 college football coaches who would be the life of the tailgate party
10. Jim Harbaugh, Michigan
“Quick, go deep.”
You can expect to hear that a lot from Jim Harbaugh at your tailgate party as he gingerly picks up a football, stretches out his arms and puts his receiver gloves on. You know Jim will be ready to play catch after a few tall glasses of milk.
You don’t have to worry much about him drinking all the alcoholic beverages because he is a milk guy, but that won’t tame him at all.
Harbaugh is going to be the same crazy guy he is with or without a cold one in his system, and that’s what makes him so unique. He may not be the most popular coach in the country but he’s true to himself. He’s quirky and he’s not going to act fake or change for everyone even if it ruffles some feathers.
But if you’re looking for someone to play a quick game of pickup two-hand touch football in the parking lot, you can bet Harbaugh will tap in as the “all-time QB”. He’ll throw those tight spirals, say some quirky things and just be that odd uncle figure that every tailgate needs.
