Harbaugh still upset over scuffle

The pregame spat between Michigan and Michigan State is showing no signs of going away.

Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh said Monday the athletic directors for both schools should probably talk about what happened before the game at Michigan State.

Harbaugh called the pregame scuffle between the entire Michigan State team “bush league.” He said the Spartans were on the field for their traditional walk later than scheduled and were led by the strength staff onto the field with coach Mark Dantonio just behind the sideline-to-sideline string of players.

Harbaugh also took exception with coach Mark Dantonio’s rebukes.

“To call that unsportsmanlike or to call it bush league is putting it mildly,” Harbaugh said. “That could’ve been a real, unfortunate incident. As I said, it’s the opposite of B.S. Coach [Dantonio] said that was B.S. That’s not B.S. That’s fact. I think it’s something now the two athletic directors really need to get together and talk about. I’ll go one step further and use coach Dantonio’s words back, ‘It’s not a product of the team, but their program.’ ”
