Two of the NFL's top quarterback prospects, Baylor's Bryce Petty and FSU's Jameis Winston, traveled to Ann Arbor this week to train with Michigan Wolverines head coach Jim Harbaugh.

Harbaugh commands a lot of respect throughout the pros and college ranks, especially for his prowess in coaching quarterbacks. He turned Andrew Luck into a number one overall pick at Stanford, and he took Andrew Smith and Colin Kaepernick to the NFC Conference Championship Game and Super Bowl, respectively.
In fact, Winston had such a great time training with Harbaugh, he ended up slighting his own alma mater in the process.
"These guys don't know how blessed they are to have this kind of facility," Winston said, via SB Nation. "I mean, Florida State, we're a very prestigious school, we have nice stuff, but we don't have this. I'm sorry, I love Florida State. Go 'Noles till the day I die, but they're so much [more] advanced than us."
Jim Harbaugh's Assistant Is A Recruiting Wizard
When speaking about Harbaugh himself, the 2013 Heisman winner's praise was just as effusive.
"It was a blessing to meet a guy like that. It was an honor to meet him. All of his accomplishments, and the type of coach that he is, I wish I could have played for him."
Ouch -- let's hope Winston's actual coach, Jimbo Fisher, didn't hear that.
