ESPN 300 athlete David Long hosted Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh on an in-home visit Monday, along with a slew of other Michigan coaches. Long shared a few of the highlights of the visit on social media and, of course, Harbaugh didn’t disappoint in doing something a little odd.

That included Harbaugh climbing a tree while playing a game of catch with Long and his siblings.

Long said there was a reason Harbaugh ended up in the tree and it obviously had to do with competition, since that’s what Harbaugh is known for.
