Michigan football coach Jim Harbaugh was not happy with former Wolverine receiver, and current Big Ten Network analyst, Braylon Edwards' decision to criticize Michigan players via Twitter during Saturday's loss to Notre Dame.
The Big Ten Network suspended Edwards for the since-deleted tweet from Saturday night: "(Cesar) Ruiz is weak, line is weak, shea (Patterson) is scared, (expletive) Michigan offense is so predictable…..Michigan football is sadly one thing……Trash."
The Big Ten Network suspension is indefinite for "a violation of the network’s social media guidelines."
Earlier in the day, speaking with reporters in Ann Arbor, Harbaugh gave his response to the matter.

"No. 1, first of all, (what he said) is not true. It's not factual. There's nobody in our program who thinks those things about any player on our team. Let alone the two players he described," Harbaugh said. "On another level, it's disappointing that a member of the Big Ten Network would choose to attack the character of two of our players. That's disappointing.
"If somebody wants to attack character of anybody on the ball club, come after me. Not the youngsters."
