Dick Vitale Hangs With Jim Harbaugh At Michigan Spring Practice
Dick Vitale showed up to Jim Harbaugh's spring break practice at the IMG Academy.
Dickie V and Jim Harbaugh hung out at Michigan’s spring practice in Florida and it looked awesome, baby.
The first full week of Jim Harbaugh’s controversial spring break practices at the IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida have begun. And, wouldn’t you know it, celebrities have already begun showing up to watch the Wolverines get some work done in the Sunshine State.

That would be Dick Vitale, legendary college basketball announcer and Diaper Dandy enthusiast, making an appearance at Monday’s practice and conversing with Harbaugh. Vitale’s house is located not too far from the practice site, so it’s not all too surprising to see this photo surface on social media.
The fun part here comes when we use our imaginations, picturing the initial reaction to the photo by fellow coaches and who were so critical of Harbaugh when the Florida trip was first announced. They cited the trip as a questionable, calculated recruiting strategy, given the high caliber of athletes that train at the IMG Academy.
Harbaugh replied to the issue by saying that the criticism was “comical,” and by the looks of this photo, he’s still the one doing all the laughing.
